• Using a new Incognito or Private browser session from you favorite browser (Chrome recommended), log in to TestDrive Portal.
• Launch the Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure Next Gen Universal Console from the Digital Workspace section of My Products in the portal.
• Login to the console and view the home page.
• Expand each section and explore menus.
• Search a user and the assigned VM information.
• View Inventory for applications, virtual machines, and image publishing.

In order to access the Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure Next Gen Universal Console please ensure you have the following:

• A valid account in the VMware TestDrive environment, sign up here if you don't yet have an account.
• A valid VMware Cloud Services account, sign up here if you don't yet have an account.

Open a new Chrome Incognito browser window and navigate to the TestDrive Portal at https://portal.vmtestdrive.com/login

Login with your TestDrive credentials.

Once you've logged in, select Digital Workspace under My Products. Then scroll down to VMware Horizon Cloud Service and click the Enable Product button.

Allow a few minutes for the product to be enabled.  During this time, your VMware Cloud Services Console (CSP) Account is being added to the Cloud Services organization for the TestDrive environment.

After a few minutes, you will receive emails from VMware Cloud Services that confirm your roles have been added.

NOTE:  You must have your own VMware Cloud Services account before proceeding with the next steps.  This account is completely separate from your TestDrive account.

If you do not have a VMware Cloud Services account, the email you receive will contain a link named JOIN VMWARE CLOUD SERVICES.  Please follow the link to create your Cloud Services Account OR go to https://console.cloud.vmware.com/ and choose the option "Create Your VMware Account".

Also, your Cloud Services account will be active in the organization for 30 days.  If you receive an email that your account has been removed from the organization and you still need access, you can re-enable your access in the Horizon Cloud product tile, as mentioned in the the previous steps.

After your Horizon Cloud access has been enabled, click the product tile to expand it, then click on the Launch button.

On the pop up menu under Horizon Cloud Next Gen, open Universal Console **in a new incognito window or private browser**

You will be directed to the Cloud Services Console at https://console.cloud.vmware.com. **Make sure you are using an incognito or private browser session here**.

Enter YOUR OWN email address of your VMware Cloud Services account, then hit Next.

Enter the password for your VMware Cloud Services account, then hit Sign In.

After login, you will see the initial Cloud Services webpage.

Depending on your Cloud Services account, you might have access to multiple Cloud Services Organizations.

For TestDrive Horizon Cloud Next-Gen, make sure you are in the correct organization named "TD HCSv2 00".

You can verify this in the upper right corner of the window, below your name.  If a different organization name is shown, click on the name and toggle to the correct one.

After verifying you are in the correct organization, click on Workspace ONE Launch Service link.

This brings you to the Workspace ONE page.  On the right window pane, under Services, find Horizon Cloud and then click on the LAUNCH link.

You are now at the Home page of the Horizon Universal Console.  This page is divided up into a resources section, an errors and session dashboard section, and a utilization dashboard.

**Before doing a user search, connect to a desktop or app with your Testdrive credentials following the instructions here: https://kb.vmtestdrive.com/a/1687585-horizon-cloud-on-microsoft-azure-next-gen-desktops-and-apps?token=e6hP7qxaG0t8yhGYymiB3IUlWp-8QqAx ***

From the Home Page, in the Search User field, type your username.

Select the user and then under Sessions, click on the computer name.

Review the desktop dashboard Summary that is displayed.

Now lets move on and expand the Resources menu.  Here is where you will find information related to Capacity, Images, Pools and Pool groups.

The Capacity menu lists the Horizon Edges, Providers, Sites and Maintenance information.

The Images menu is where all images are created and managed.

The Pools is where Desktop and Application Pool resources are created and managed.

Pool Groups collect together one or more pools. This allows a common set of policies to be applied to the pools that define how users will consume the resources of the pools.  View the settings here.

Expand the next section called Desktop & App Catalog, which is broken down into 3 columns, Desktops, Published Applications and App Volumes

Desktops is where we can entitle desktops to users.

Published Applications is where we view the settings for all RDSH and VDI Published applications.

The App Volumes column is where applications previously captured and applied are viewed and managed.

From here we move down to the Subscriptions menu, to view information about the subscription.

From here we can expand the Integrations menu, and under Identity & Access select Manage

Domains is where the domain authenticating users and machines that are part of the Horizon Cloud Environment are managed.

Identity Provider is where the entity responsible for providing Identity and access, (in our case Workspace ONE) is managed.

SSO Configurations is where SSO settings are managed.

The Settings menu is where we manage Client Settings, Home Sites and VMware Dynamic Environment Manager configurations.

Client Settings are managed from here.

Home Sites are managed here.

Dynamic Environment Manager configurations are managed from here.
