Purpose

Horizon 7 and 8 attempts to achieve maximum density while placing vGPU-enabled desktops so as to support multiple profiles.

If you have only a single vGPU profile in your Horizon 7 or 8 environment  you can get better performance by switching the GPU assignment policy on the hosts to Performance and turning on the Max Performance mode

Resolution

Procedure to get maximum performance from a single GPU profile:

Steps for switching the GPU assignment policy on the host to performance mode:

Navigate to  vCenter Server

Select the host you want to apply the change

Click on Configure -> Graphics -> Host Graphics

Click Edit

Under Shared passthrough GPU assignment policy: select Spread VMS across GPUs (best performance)

For this change to take effect, please restart the host or restart the 'xorg' service on the host.

Steps for turning on the Max Performance mode:

Note: Ensure to take a complete backup of the ADAM database before proceeding. For more information, see Performing an end-to-end backup and restore for VMware Horizon View (1008046)

Start the ADSI Edit utility on the Horizon Connection Server host.

In the console tree, select Connect to.

In the Select or type a domain or server field, type the server name as localhost:389

Under Connection Point, click Select or type a distinguished name or naming context, type the distinguished name as DC=vdi,DC=vmware,DC=int, and click OK.

The ADAM ADSI Edit main window appears

Expand the ADSI Edit tree, select OU=Properties, and select OU=VirtualCenter.

Expand the CN for the vCenter Server instance that manages the virtual machine.

Select Action > Properties, and under the pae-NameValuePair attribute, add the new entry vc-maxperfsinglegpuprofile=1

To revert to the default placement logic (Max Density), remove vc-maxperfsinglegpuprofile from the pae-NameValuePair.
