Hi,

 

I have to deploy the application pools to the user in VMware Horizon View environment using RDS feature on the Windows Server 2012. When I tried to publish the application I noticed that the icon is a little bit strange.

 

If I select the application from the lists, the application show up with right icons -- such as (remote desktop, notepad, wordpad, IE, paint)
But if I add the application manually, there are something wrong the application show up only "A" icon. If I add more applications, the icon are the same picture. -- see an attachment below.

Can I change the icon appear on the Horizon View Client ? How can I change it ?

 

Thanks in advance.

Siemens PLM NX 10 and Siemens Teamcenter Visualization 10

Hi,

 

We have setup an demo environment with Horizon View and Grid Cards. The environment is as follow

 

 

2 x FUJITSU PRIMERGY RX2540 M1 (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v3 @ 2.60GHz, 196GB Memory)

Fujitsu Eternus SSD storage connected with Fiber Channel

Running vsphere 5.5.0.update02-2143827-v320-1 and Horizon View 6.0.1 build-2088845

One host with Nvidia Grid K1 and the other host with K2 card.

 

We have configured the K1 card as vSGA and the K2 card as vDGA.

The host with vSGA are running the version 340.32

The vms that are configured for vDGA are using the driver "347.52-quadro-grid-desktop-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql"

 

The demo environment we are testing the applications Siemens PLM NX 10 and Siemens Teamcenter Visualization 10.

We tried to use a vm on the vSGA that is sharing K1 card, but that was to slow, and not able to work with this. What im wondering about is should it work with vSGA on a K1 card?

 

We tried to use a vm on the vDGA that have K2 card dedicated, and it is working ok, we may need some fine tuning. Is there any documents/best practice when it comes to these applications and tuning ?

 

So the main question is actually to run these Siemens applications do we have to use vDGA?

 

 

 

 

I know we can upgrade to use vGPU and vsphere 6, but we are waiting for the hardware to be certified first.

 

Thanks for reply.

Start Menu Disconnect Button

Hello,

 

When first asked about this I thought this would be a simple thing but I seem to be finding it incredibly difficult. Basically on the logoff button I want to see an disconnect option, not Lock (if lock remains that's fine but ideally that can go too) but I just can't seem to find any settings for it.This is what I see on an uncontrolled start menu, yes I can remove restart and turn the Shutdown into a Logoff but crucially there is no disconnect which is what I need.

If I RDP onto the same Win 7 VM I get this, which is exactly what I want:

 

RDP.png

 

So it seems that it is a PCOIP issue that it is trying to be too clever and removing stuff that I am quite capable of clearing up using Group Policy. Is this a common thing? I can't find any way to control it using the ADM templates supplied in the Horizon 6.2 download package. The above screen shots are me logged on as an admin with no user policies applying.

 

BTW, I don't want any suggestions about using the Horizon client to disconnect or anything like that, I just want it to work like it does in RDP.

 

Many Thanks!

CDR fails after 60 mins

Hi all,

 

When connected to a desktop Client Drive Redirections disappear after 60 minutes or don't appear at all if the Horizon View session is older than +- 60 minutes.

 

We created the following key at the client location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\VMware,Inc.\VMware VDPService\handshakeTTL 600000

 

This did not resolve the issue.

 

Does anybody have any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Cannot start connection server service

$

Hi all,

 

I recently upgrade our View Connection Server from 5.3.4 to 6.2.2. The upgrade worked correctly and is all working fine. I then decided to upgrade the OS from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2012 R2. The upgrade of the OS went without a problem.

 

However, once the server was booted I noticed the View Connection server service would not start. This was because the VMWareVDMDS service was missing. As I could not find a solution I had to roll back to a snapshot I did before the upgrade of the OS.

 

Is there any reason why this service would be removed when the OS is upgraded? Is there a way I can repair the View install to put back the missing service if I upgrade the OS again?

 

Thanks,

 

James

Hi all,

 

In View admin I can see the following error "vCenter at address https://xxx:443/sdk has invalid credentials"

In addition, we got a warning about "Bad vCenter Server username logon attempt" in Veeam Monitor. The event points to one of our Connection Servers.

On the connection server, Windows event ID104 is recorded, warning description "BROKER_VC_STATUS_CHANGED_INVALID_CREDENTIALS".

 

Any clues how to resolve this?

 

Thanks,

unable to have exceptions to usb port access?

$

When attempting to use the VMWare Group policies to disable USB port access, we are unable to add exceptions to certain devices. We have added the VID/PID in "Include VID/PID Device" setting and the device will no longer map up to the user's vm session. If we shut this group policy setting off, the user then is able to use the usb device?

The VMware View USB Service fails to start when the computer starts and Connect USB Device shows "USB Unavailable" .

manually starting  the service and everything seemed to work fine until the next reboot where the service fails again.


This issue on systems that take a long time to show the login window after a restart.

 

changing the service from “Automatic” to "Automatic (Delayed Start)”  is our workaround .  latest view client on windows 7 . Is this a known issue?

Recompose task failure in Horizon view 5.3.2

Good day!

After creation of a recompose task (linked clone) in vmware horizon view 5.3.2 the task has not been completed in due time and is still on the list of tasks. We decided to stop it. After choosing a "cancel" operation the task has been hanging up for several days already (cancelled). Is there a way to cancel it? It prevents us from proceeding with a new recompose.


View Client - Stuck on Authentication

$

Environment is View 6.2.2 and Access Point 2.0.1.0


Users will connect and go through RSA authentication, then prompted for their AD credentials this is where it will hang "Authenticating"
Users can connect via HTML\Blast (users on IOS\Android have not reported any issues)

 

The clients are the latest 3.5.2

 

The only way to resolve the problem so far is to restart the Access Point

 

Since deployment Feb 21st this has happened 3 times (wednesday AM, tuesday PM, wednesday AM) - we have checked that no scans or other work is being done at the same time

 

 

Curious if anyone else has had this problem? or could point me in any direction? - i do have an open support ticket but so far no root cause

I have since noted that their is version 2.0.2.0 of the Access Point but i cant find any release notes to say what was fixed

 

 

Appreciate any help on this
James

VMware Access Point Rest API

what codecs exactly implemented in PCoIP protocol?

$

Hi there,

As Horizon 7.0 rolling out, the Blast Protocol is used as a normal protocol similar to VMware RDP and PCoIP. In the Client manual, it says Blast protocol could use H.264 codec to decoding, and then H.264 doesn't work, it roll back to JPG/PNG codecs.

so I was wondering that what codecs are used in PCoIP protocol.  As far as I know, there are multiple codecs to decompose the image elements - graphics, text, icon, video, etc. Then what exactly are these codec in PCoIP protocol?

SSL Bad Header Thin Client - VMware Horizon View 6.2.2

Hello everybody,

 

We have updated our VMware Horizon View environment from 6.1.1 version to 6.2.2 version.

 

We have not found any issue from VMware Horizon View Clients installed on computers, but when we try to connect from our Thin Clients Dell/Wyse/Axel, some messages like "SSL Bad Header" or "SSL Client Fatal Error: Protocol Version Alert" are shown on screen.

 

We thought that there are incompatibilities with SSLv3 and we have applied Documentation for VMware Horizon 6 version 6.2 settings for security protocols disabled.

 

The most of our thin clients are:

 

Wyse/Dell Tx0 ; firmware version 8.0_210

 

Wyse Vx0 ; firmware version 8.0_210

 

Wyse Dx0D ; firmware version 8.0_505

 

Does anybody help us? We don't understand what's wrong with our environment.

 

Thanks

"User Account is disabled" error after Horizon 6.0.1 upgrade to 6.2.1

$

HI Guys,

 

has anyone come across this problem when upgrading Horizon to version 6.2.1 or higher? Seems that after the upgrade the the user account can not be verified against the AD so by default assumes the account to be disabled and blocks the connection via the horizon client. Same issue has been described  on View 6.2 bug? however the solution does not apply in my case as User Accounts and the Connection server are part of the same Domain. As per the comments in the post 6.2.1 comes with an additional security check during log-on - does anyone know how to disable this check?
