Ensure the computer account used for the domain join has all appropriate permissions needed to complete the task. Create a User Account for Instant-Clone OperationsEnsure there is no conflict in terms of the computer name , that it does not conflict with any existing object in active directory outside of Horizon View.Check the event logs of the domain controller for any errors or warnings related to the creation of the computer account utilizing the timestamp of the failure message in the horizon logs to filter results.Often, an unavailable result code 52 may be an transitory issue and a retry or resubmission of the provisioning task could succeed.
