Good afternoon,
I am looking to implement a new server / virtualization setup for a client. In doing this, I would like to be able to setup VDI for 10 users initially to run OpenRoads. I need to know if there is any information around VDI, nVidia grid or other technologies needed to do this. Is there an area on the Communities here that focuses on this?
Hi Patrick,
The most recent information is in Working from home with MicroStation
particularly this page Important notice about use of Bentley products in virtual environments
I don't think we have anything else on specific vendor solutions other than those discussed on the WFH page.

Make sure that you look into the licensing on this as well. I have heard about overage charges due to a user not closing the software before logging out. Even though the user is logged out, that session of the software "stays active", so if another user logs in and opens the same software, you will be charged for using two licenses. So if all your 10 users open the same Bentley software and log out without closing the program first, you could be charged for using 10 licenses while no one is logged in!
