An administrator is creating an instant clone desktop pool and needs to enable NVIDIA Grid 3D Rendering. NVIDIA GRID vGPU and drivers are installed on the physical ESXi hosts.
In Horizon Console, when creating an instant-clone pool, the NVIDIA GRID vGPU option is not available in the 3D Render field.
Which two of the following could be the reason for the issue? (Choose two.)

I thought instant-clones could use NVIDIA GRID vGPU?

Totally agree, instant-clones inherit settings from there!

A is correct, you need to manage via vSphere Client.

Wait, are you saying instant-clones can't use GRID at all?

B makes sense, check the golden image settings.

I vaguely recall something about the Host Graphics Settings needing to be set correctly, so options C and E could be worth considering too.

I feel like I read that instant-clone pools do support NVIDIA GRID vGPU, so I'm leaning away from option D.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think there was a practice question that mentioned how instant-clone pools inherit settings from vSphere. So maybe option A is correct?

I remember something about needing to configure the golden image for NVIDIA GRID vGPU, so option B might be a reason for the issue.

Alright, I think I've got a good strategy here. I'll start by looking at the vSphere host graphics settings, as that could be the root cause. Then I'll check the golden image configuration to see if that's the issue. Gotta be thorough on this one!

I'm a bit confused here. The question mentions that the NVIDIA GRID vGPU option is not available in the Horizon Console, but it doesn't explicitly say why. I'll need to carefully consider all the possible reasons and try to eliminate the less likely ones.

Ah, I think I've got it! The key is in the second option - the golden image might not be configured for NVIDIA GRID vGPU. I'll make sure to double-check that before selecting my answer.

Okay, let's see. The question mentions that the NVIDIA GRID vGPU and drivers are installed, so that's not the problem. I'm thinking it might be related to the golden image settings or the host graphics configuration in vCenter.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not sure if the issue is with the Horizon Console settings or the vSphere configuration. I'll need to carefully review the options and think through the possible causes.

I agree with you, Carissa. That could be one of the reasons. What do you think could be the other reason?
AN

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. I'm leaning towards C. The administrator might have selected Shared mode instead of Shared Direct, which is required for NVIDIA GRID vGPU.

I think the issue might be because the golden image and snapshot have not been configured for NVIDIA GRID vGPU.
JO

I think the answer is B. The golden image and snapshot must be configured for NVIDIA GRID vGPU, otherwise the option won't be available in Horizon Console.

D) Instant-clone pools do not support NVIDIA GRID vGPU.

C) The administrator has selected Shared when editing the Host Graphics Settings for the ESXi host in the vCenter Server.

B) In Horizon Console, when an instant-clone pool is created, the golden image and snapshot that the administrator selected has not been configured for NVIDIA GRID vGPU.

A) Horizon 8 does not have an explicit 3D renderer option for instant clone. Select Manage Using vSphere Client in the 3D Render field. Instant-clones inherit the settings configured in the vSphere Client for the golden image.
