XenDesktop Services needed for VDA

OK, so I'm creating a desktop and the thing gets stuck at Pending. If you look in vCenter, it has reconfigured the deployed machines three 3 times. But now it is sitting at Pending.

One of the things to look for is services required for Virtual Desktop Agent to run.
- HTTP SSL   - Startup Mode should be at least Manual.
- RPC Locator Service   - Startup Automatic(?) Manual should work.

If these are disabled, it may cause this problem.

Look in your group policy, it may be blocked by group policy. If it is, it will be in:
Computer Configuration
Windows Settings
Security Settings
System Services


GPO Setting can be fun, check my other post for GPO enforce, block-inheritance, and no-override.
