Certain aspects direct to system for performing high availability (HA) configuration and validation of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). The system includes a plurality of computing devices functioning as computing nodes, and a virtual desktop controller. Each computing device includes at least one network interface card (NIC), and each computing node includes at least one computing device. The virtual desktop controller includes a processor, a memory, and a storage device storing computer executable code. The code, when executed at the processor, is configured to: discover the computing devices; configure the NICs of the computing devices; configure hardware and software components of the computing devices; configure at least one cluster of the system, where each cluster includes at least one computing node; execute a hypervisor, and execute a plurality of virtual machines (VMs) on the executed hypervisor; and configure additional features related to the VMs of the system.
