A school wants newly cloned student desktops to be Guest Introspection-ready at first boot instead of waiting for a post-clone Tools install. What should be baked into the golden image?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Whatever you leave in the golden image is what every clone is born with. Put GI-enabled VMware Tools in the template and the first boot already has the thin agent.
Full Explanation
Instant clones and template clones inherit the Tools build in the golden image. Including GI-enabled VMware Tools makes desktops introspectable at first boot. Deferring Tools, substituting a Carbon Black uninstaller, or embedding an Edge appliance does not prepare GI on clones.
