Chapter 3 Using View PowerCLI
Refresh Policy Settings
Table 3-13 shows the settings that you can use with the -refreshPolicyType parameter to specify a refresh
policy for the OS disks of automatically provisioned dedicated and linked-clone desktop pools.
Smart Card Authentication Settings
Table 3-13 shows the settings that you can use with the -smartCardSetting parameter to specify how users
with smart cards are authenticated. These settings apply to Update-ConnectionBroker, and do not have any
effect unless you also specify -UseSSLClient $true with Update-GlobalSetting.

Table 3-14 shows the settings that you can use with the -composerTask parameter to specify a View
Composer maintenance task type that is scheduled on a virtual machine.
Table 3-12. Refresh Policy Settings
Refresh Policy Description
Always Specifies that an OS disk is always refreshed when the user logs out.
Conditional Specifies that an OS disk is refreshed when the user logs out if certain conditions
are met. Use the -refreshpolicyDays and -refreshPolicyUsage
parameters to specify the refresh interval in days and the percentage of the
maximum allowable size for the disk.
Never Specifies that an OS disk is never refreshed when the user logs out.
Table 3-13. Smart Card Authentication Settings
Refresh Policy Description
NotAllowed Specifies that smart card authentication is disabled.
Optional Specifies that users can use smart card authentication or password
authentication to connect to the View Connection Server instance. If smart card
authentication fails, the user must provide a password.
Required Specifies that users must use smart card authentication when connecting to the
View Connection Server instance. Smart card authentication replaces Windows
password authentication only. If SecureID is enabled, users are required to
authenticate by using both SecureID and smart card authentication.
