Enabling Writable Volumes

Writable Volumes are enabled as part of an AppStack assignment, and are used with Horizon clients who are accessing traditional desktops, not RDS servers.

Tip

Future versions of App Volumes will likely restore the ability to enable Writable Volumes separately from AppStacks. Refer to the release notes and documentation for future releases to see if the option returns.

To enable a writable volume, when creating an AppStack assignment you click on the slider next to the Writable Volume: option to set it to Yes as seen in the following screenshot. This option occurs during step 4 of the procedure outlined in the section of this chapter titled Assigning AppStacks.
