The vShield Endpoint driver is a subcomponent of the VMware Tools
software package that is installed on the virtual desktop master image. The
driver is installed using one of two methods:
Select the Complete option during VMware Tools installation.
Select the Custom option during VMware Tools installation. From
the VMware Device Drivers list, select VMCI Driver, and then
select vShield Driver.
To install the vShield Endpoint driver on a virtual machine that already has
VMware Tools installed, simply initiate the VMware Tools installation and
select the appropriate option.
The vShield Manager appliance is provided by VMware as an OVA file that
is imported through the vShield client using the File – Deploy OVF template
option. The vShield Manager appliance is preconfigured with all required
components.
The vSphere vShield Endpoint service must be installed on all vSphere
virtual desktop hosts. The service is installed on the vSphere hosts by the
vShield Manager appliance. The vShield Manager web console is used to
initiate the vShield Endpoint service installation and to verify that the
installation is successful.
The antivirus solution management server is used to manage the antivirus
solution and is provided by vShield Endpoint partners. The management
server and associated components are a required component of the
vShield Endpoint platform.
The vSphere security virtual machines are provided by the vShield Endpoint
partners and are installed on each vSphere virtual desktop host. The
security virtual machines perform security related operations for all virtual
desktops that reside on their vSphere host. The security virtual machines
and associated components are required components of the vShield
Endpoint platform.
Once all required components of the vShield Endpoint platform have
been installed and configured, the functionality of the platform should be
verified prior to the deployment of virtual desktops.
Using the documentation provided by the vShield Endpoint partner, verify
the functionality of the vShield Endpoint platform with the virtual desktop
master image.
