Release date: April 10th 2021
Welcome to my VMware Dynamic Environment Manager series. In this session I will describe how I upgraded the VMware DEM GPO templates to v. 2103.
I first log in to one of my Active Directory servers, browse to the temporary folder where I downloaded the VMware-DEM-xxx-GA.zip file and extract it. Under the VMware-DEM-xxx-GA folder, there is a folder called Administrative Templates (ADMX). This is where the updated admx-templates are situated.
Next, I copy and replace all the admx-files to my Central Store location, in my LAB this will be: “C:WindowsSYSVOLsysvolad.admin.frelab.netPoliciesPolicyDefinitions”
Finally, I copy and replace the adml-files from the en-US folder to “C:WindowsSYSVOLsysvolad.admin.frelab.netPoliciesPolicyDefinitionsen-US”
This concludes my session about upgrading the DEM GPO Templates to v. 2103. I can now proceed with upgrading the DEM Agent, posted here: VMware DEM – Upgrade Agent to v. 2103
