VCAP-DTA PCoIP Tuning Quick Reference
Following on from my previous post regarding tuning your Windows 7 image for the purposes of the VCAP-DTA exam, I lifted the following table from the View 5.2 Best Practices guide. In the exam you don’t have a lot of time and you’re probably going to have to tackle a question at some stage about PCoIP performance or be asked to tune it for certain restrictive network conditions. The table below has a handful of settings which should help you go a decent way to getting good marks for this question:-
