MacOS mouse is crazy

Hello everybody,

 

We are using Horizon Client 4.0 from a MacBook and when we are connected to a remote app, mouse is going crazy.

It clicks and move alone without any interaction with the MacBook cursor.

 

On our Windows OS we've got no problem.

 

So I try with the Blast and PCoIP protocol, we get the same behavior, we try to update clients with the 2018 version and it's the same.

 

Some users are using DrCleaner on MacOS to clean some RAM and problem seems to disappear.

We get this behavior on all MacOS device.

 

Someone could help me ?

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Regards.

UAG 3.2 install via Powershell not using staticv4 address

$

Hello.  I am trying to use the PowerShell script to install UAG 3.2.  This will be a huge time saver over the OVF if I can get past the last remaining issue.  When I configure the ini file with a single IPV4 address, the appliance installs, but grabs a DHCP address instead.  I can see the OVF properties is missing the STATICV4 setting that is required when building the appliance using the GUI OVF installation.  Is there an ini file setting to set STATICV4 during the installation?

 

Thank you.

How can I disable Ctrl+Alt+Delete for RDS Applications?

$

We would like to completely block users from interacting with the OS, other than the applications that have been exposed.  In the Horizon View 7.0 sidebar, there is a button in the nav bar to Send Ctrl+Alt+Delete.  I'd like this disabled, in conjunction with keystrokes.  What are the GPO keys to prevent this? And - is there an easy way to disable the UI button (i.e. properties file), or is the recommended way to dig through the portal code to disable?

 

Thanks.

View Instant Clones Pool provisioning breaks when using OS Optimization Tool (default Windows 10 template).

$

Hi,

 

Hope someone can help me out with the following error.

 

Environment:

I am working on a VMware Horizon 7.3.2 environment with only one Windows 10 (Enterprise x64 1607) Instant Clone Pool (+/- 20 desktops).

Like almost everyone, I use the OS Optimization Tool (OSOT) to optimize the golden/master/base image for VDI. The only thing we change is from the defaults is place a check at "disable the first logon experience".

 

Problem:

Since november 2017 or something the provisioning process breaks after customizing the cp-template machine.

Cloning the golden/master/base image is successful, it re configures the cp-template, starts-up, and then it times out after 600 seconds (10 minutes).

After half a day (error created in evening), when I enable provisioning in the morning it is going pass the timeout and provisioning is successful.

 

Findings/Troubleshooting:

My first thoughts were going to DHCP, DNS and AD, but they are working correctly (monitored all the registrations). The itXXXXXX is member of the AD and also gets an IP-address of the right DHCP server and register it in DNS.

So continued troubleshooting and it works only correctly when when I don't use the "OS Optimization Tool". It never times out at the above step in the process.

 

Error in log:

Within the Horizon Connection Server logs I see one line of the error without any root cause to search for: 2018-01-17T13:35:46.020+01:00 DEBUG (0D5C-1278) <WFE-01> [WaitForInternalTemplateAction] Internal Template: vm-4377 customization state returns: error.

 

Alert in Horizon:

The error in Horizon View Administrator Console (Desktop Pool) is: After waiting for 600 seconds internal template VM: vm-4377 is still has not finished customization. Giving up!.

 

Does one of you experience, read or find a solution for this? Within OSOT a lot of customizations take place and it is searching for a needle in a haystack.

Thank you in advance.

Admin Console access

We're running VMware View 5.1.2, Up until yesterday the Connection Admin Console webUI worked both on the server and across systems on our network. Now - strangely it only works from my desktop. On the local server and other systems I tested with it returns "This page can't be displayed". The server's firewall is disabled, I disabled the Anti-virus but neither resolves the issue. I tried renaming this folder (VMware\VMware View\Server\broker\webapps\admin) and restarting this service "vmware view web component", which recreated the amin folder but problem continues. Are there any logs that might prove helpful in determing the console issue?

Hello All,

 

We are exploring the feasibility of using Biometric based authentication for Windows 10.

 

I was wondering if anyone has successfully configured Windows Hello For Business on Windows 10

Is it supported on Windows 10 on VDI desktop? I have not seen any support statement on it.

We would like to upgrade our View 5.2 environment to Horizon view 7. Since the direct upgrade is not possible from 5.2 to 7, we would like to upgrade it to 6.1 first and then to 7. Can anyone had done this scenario earlier, if yes please share your thoughts.

 

Also vcenter server version is 5.5. do we need to upgrade this?

Esxi Server versions are 5.5? Do we need to upgrade this for view 7?

 

Appreciate your help on this

 

Thanks

Having trouble downloading VMware for windows 7 on my MacBook Air. It only gives me the viewing access option. I need it downloaded for a project that is due tonight for my class! Help would be much appreciated.

Google Chrome on Horizon View Windows 10 desktops is very fuzzy

$

We are testing Windows 10 in our VDI environment where we use Horizon View 7.3.2 currently and we have noticed that Google Chrome is very fuzzy on Windows 10 desktops.  I've tried overriding the dpi scaling options and allowing the application, system or system (enhanced) to see if any of those fix the issue (which it does on my non-vdi Windows 10 desktops) but it doesn't seem to work within the Horizon View environment.  Does anyone have any suggestions or a fix for this in Horizon View?

Issue with SQL Server during Mirage Server installation

$

I am attempting to deploy Mirage in a test environment. I already deployed the Mirage Management Server, and installed the SQL Server instance on the same vm. I am now attempting to install the Mirage Server on a separate vm in the same domain. I have already configured a ODBC connection on the Mirage Server vm, and I have disabled Windows Firewall on the Mirage Management Server vm.

 

When running the Mirage Server install, I am prompted to enter the SQL Server name and instance. When I hit Next, I get the following error:

 

"Failed install user rights validations. Failed to connect to database. Check server name, instance name and server settings."

 

I have already checked every setting I know to check. Any ideas on what I could be missing here?

Recomposing Win10 1709 with Horizon 7.4, stuck at customizing

$

Hello:

 

We recently started looking at Windows 10 1709 since Horizon 7.4 has support for it (and other versions as well).   However, when recomposing any pool, it gets stuck on the "customizing" step for the desktops in the pool.  We are using a customization specification (sysprep) because we prefer this method over quickprep.  This has worked fine with Windows 10 1607.  When I check, the desktops are stuck at the Windows logon screen and will sit there indefinitely.  In the events log, it shows entries like this:

 

Provisioning error occurred for Machine win101709002: Customization operation timed out

 

Automatic error recovery for Pool win101709: attempting to restart Machine win101709002

 

Are there still problems with 1709?  Anybody been able to get it to work?  We are pretty plain here with our setup, nothing really special going on but just can't seem to get this working.

 

Thanks.

SSO Problems Windows 10 - VD shows last logged in user and doesn't passthrough credentials ? ( 7.4 )

$

Hi - I've seen this a few times on multiple Horizon versions, though at the moment i'm using Horizon 7.4 and WIndows 10

 

A user logs into Horizon and instead of passing through the credentials to Windows it then asks them to login again and shows the name of the last logged in user . This problem is intermittent but maybe 1/20 times

 

It only happens in Windows 10 , the pass through of credentials  is perfect in Windows 7

 

Horizon admin doesn't tell me much

We recently migrated from a Sonicwall appliance to a Meraki MX84.  I have recreated (and triple checked) the incoming and port forwarding rules.  However users logging in over the Internet are not able to connect.  The VMware client gives a "connection timeout" error and the iOS app is giving an SSL error.  Attached is the log from a client PC.

Migrating to LTSB 1607

Was wondering if anyone migrated from Windows 10 ENT 1607 CBB to Windows 10 LTSB 1607? We are thinking about moving everyone to LTSB and was wondering if you had to do anything special to make sure that everything worked. We are currently running Horizon 7.1, App Volumes 2.12.1 and UEM 9.1. We do have some users with a writable appstack. Thanks!

Windows Defender in Windows 10

I've noticed that the VMware Optimization Tool templates don't actually turn off the Windows Defender service as part of the templates.  If we are running a different Antivirus solution does anyone know of a reason for this?  Is there some other dependency that requires the service?

Balancing VDI storage during provisioning

$

Storage rebalance helps to balance the Linked Clones across Datastores post provisioning. However I'm trying to control the Linked clone distribution on a specific Datastore during new vdi provisioning. I know its not availalbe out of the box., so here's what I'm thinking:

 

1. To the pool, add new DS1 count of vdis say #4. Enable provisioning.

2. Post completion, remove DS1 from vcenter setttings and add DS2, increase count to 8. Enable provisioning

 

This way it would ensure that 4 VDIs are created per datastore ie 1 replica mapped evenly to 4 VDIs.

 

Any reason why this should not work?

Compute mode vs graphics

$

Hi,

 

I need some help to understand computemode.

Today we have a test system with Nvidia M60 card, and we have been running it in graphics mode, and added several different profiles to ESXi VM`s and that has been working well.

 

Now we have a customer wanting to test this system in Compute mode instead, so we have changed it with the switch mode command and that`s seems ok. But what I now don`t understand is, should we add profiles to the VM`s or should they use regular VMware VGA card ? They are going to test some applications on CentOS, not quite sure what applications, but it uses Compute mode they said.

The reason I am wondering about the profiles, is because I tried to boot one of the VM`s after we changed ESXi host to compute mode, and they fail to boot with the error "Could not initialize plugin '/usr/lib64/vmware/plugin/libnvidia-vgx.so' for vGPU"

 

Please explain what I am missing here, and the concept around compute mode.

 

Thanks for reply.

 

Regards

Andreas
