Hello all,
I was wondering what people were seeing in connection times from View client to VM (mostly in reconnect as opposed to login times)? I've got some people who are requesting I get it down to sub 10 seconds (it's 15 right now) and I'm not sure if that's even possible since the biggest slow down is the client sitting at connecting to the desktop and my Connection server has 2 vcpus, 8 GBs of RAM and working with less than 50 virtual desktops.
Thank you for your help,
Matt
I need some help. I think that I have all the ports correct. Problem: I have 2 Security Servers setup. The first is for external use with RSA and the second for internal with Active Directory Authentication. Each pointing to its own Connection Broker. (See Pic). If I am internal and I point to the brok01 server then I get right in. RSA works fine. If I am external and I connect just fine excpet when it presents the desktop I get a black screen then disconnect. If I choose RDP everything works fine. Am I missing a port? (See pic).
Hello-
Realize this is a pretty worn out subject but had a question I was hoping could be clarified. I am running two internal 5.2 CB's and a third internal CB paired with a security server in the DMZ. Right now all are running with self signed certificates. I am getting ready to generate a CSR to get a certificate from GoDaddy. If I only want to buy one certificate can I list the names of all the additional CB's and Security server under the (SAN) Subject Alternate Name? I don't mind buying unique certificates for each system, if that is the right way to do it, just also don't want to waste money if I can leverage one certificate.
Thank you in advance,
Erik
How to make the clients take IPs from DHCP in a vlan diferrent than the VLAN of the servers
Hi all,
Is it still needed that VMWare Horizon View agent(5.2) has to be uninstalled/installed after VMware tools installation on a upgrade(migrate from vSphere 4.1 -> 5.1)
Is there anything about this in the View Documentation? I can only found some users report problems after VMware tools installation.. is there an official VMware statement?

Hello,
Does anybody knows how to modify the blast portal with the corporate logo and stuff? or is better to create a new webpage with links to the application?
Thanks
Hello Everyone,
As stated on my subject, Im currently experiencing an error when logging in from my desktop to connection server via VMware Horizon View Client. Try already looking for answers from Google. Can anyone please give any recommendations of quick fix with this. Initially when I have a fresh installation, everything works fine but suddenly it doesn't work now.
Because of Intranet Enviroment, we can't connect to Internet. I already knew how to <Configure the View Client Download Links Displayed in View Portal>, so I think it maybe configured within Intranet.
Is it possible to setup a non-domain (standalone) desktop in VMWare Horizon View so i can deploy to users?
Is there any way to enable inking within office on virtual desktops? We have many users connecting from tablets and they would like to be able to use this feature.
I'm looking for recommendations for the best way to undertake patching (i.e.Windows updates) of View Connection servers and vCenter servers running the View Composer service and the restarting of servers this requires. e.g. should i disable provisioning, will connected users be disconnected, how do I avoid possible LDAP database synch issues, is there a recommended sequence to do this in etc.
Hello
I am really new at this kind of implementation.
I am having some issue with the KMS and the Quickprep.
My first question is: Where can I find the quickprep?
My second question: If my parent image has been activated with a KMS key, Is there any further step I should do so my linked clones machines get activated?
Is there any way to activate the desktop on a pool using a customization specification instead of a quickprep?
When I am creating the pool, in the step regarding guest customization. Is any value that I should put in the power-off scrip name, power off script parameters, post-synchronization script name and post-synchronization script parameters?
How do I configure the quickprep?
I have looked for information all around the internet and It's really hard to find information regarding this for dummys.
Can anyone walk me through this?
Regards,
José
Wondering if anyone has spent some time working or playing with GPU cards not on the HCL?
A client of mine picked up a NVIDIA Quadro 4000 and I liked the performance it added.
Now the kicker as a consultant I haven't had much play with the GPUs and I was wondering if there are cheaper working alternatives that others have spent some time with.
Thanks!
Hi,
I Have installed Horizon view with windows 7 32 bit as a virtual Desktops. Everything is working as expected. The only issue is with the Audio quality when using softphone and the USB printer.
The teradicci audio drivers are installed. The Audio works fine but if the user starts dragging the application windows and starts web browser while on call, the quality of voice starts dropping and there is a disturbance in the audio.
Also I am facing a issue in HP P1566 usb printer installation, where in the printer is not getting installed. All the other USB printers and HID are working fine.

Can anyone please advise me as to what the exact error will be when a OS disk attempts to refresh on logoff during a View Upgrade. Does anyone have a screen shot? Is it simply a "failed operation" or will it present something more critical?
If any desktop pools are set to refresh the OS disk on logoff, edit the Desktop/Pools settings for that pool and set Refresh OS disk on logoff to Never. This setting prevents an errorfrom occurring when the newly upgraded View Composer attempts to refresh a desktop that has not yet been upgraded to View Agent 5.2
This has been a requirement in View upgrades for a while. I have had the question asked of me and I simply could not provide the answer. What is the exact error message that you get and what are the repercussions of an OS attempting a refresh on log off during an upgrade.
Hi All,
I'm new to this community and not sure if this is the right section to post my concern. We are using VMware View for our remote users and last week I noticed on our vCenter that vdi desktops are giving a warning sign that VMware tools is running out of date.
I Upgraded the VMtools installed on the base image for the pool from version 8.6.5 build-621624 to version 8.6.10 and take a snapshot and initiate a recompose. After recomposing the pool with the upgraded VMtools snapshot. I let the users try to connect but I found an issue, Remote sessions using PCOIP seems to be stuck and connection suddenly drops giving out an error "the connection to the remote computer ended". Connection works fine with RDP. So I ended up reverting the changes. So my questions are: Is their a compatibility issue with VMTools 8.6.10 and view 5.0.0. Does upgrading my VMtools also upgrade my view agent?
Thanks in Advance for any response.
all the best!

Okay so i am having all sorts of problems with making a working windows 7 template. (THANKS MICROSOFT) So i am not sure what is wrong or what I need to do to fix this but, (see attachment) I created an unattend.xml using WAIK, I have sucessfully cloned the computer, it runs the unattend.xml file. What it does not do is Join the domain, (automatically rename VM using name given at time of clone) Right now it clones blah blah and then goes to the MS wizzard and asks what name you want then finishes the process. NOT IDEAL so i ask anybody out there to help me. I have applicatons that are starting to not support XP and I need to upgrade to 7. I run View for my desktops. So ideally i would want the rename to be based on the Pool name, ex POOLNAME-001, POOLNAME-002 etc, that works with xp, but that was easy winodws 7 and 2008 machines they messed up the sysprep. can anybody help me?
Email: ken.white@premierpress.com
I have no idea what to do please help
If someone has a working sysprep unattend.xml file that they would be willing to share that would be great. I just need it to create VM without touching it and add to domain, create a name based on pool/vm name when cloning normally.
If I storage vmotion a parent VM for a linked clone pool, will that cause any problems with the clones? My understanding is that the linked clones are tied to the replica and have no reference to the parent.
Hello-
We are running Horizon View 5.2 with linked clones using the Wyse P25 endpoint solution. For antivirus we have the McAfee Move 3.0 agentless solution deployed. My problem is with the Move solution new log ins are taking around 1 minutes to 1 minute and 40 seconds. If I shut off the MOVE appliances logs in complete in about 15 seconds. Obviously a big time difference. I have tried working with McAfee but they are useless. Is anyone using MOVE with non persistent desktops and seeing better results? I am tempted to move to Trend Micros Deep Security solution, but that will require a lot of work politically.
Thank you in advance,
Erik
Hi. Just got a Dell WindowsRT tablet and installed the client for Windows RT, but my company runs PCoIP so it wont connect. Does anyone have an ETA on a verion that will support this?
