Hello,
Our organization currently has approx 700 VDI desktop running Windows 7 Ent x64 (.v2)
Vmware Horizon view 6.x
We looking to move to Windows 10 ENT LTSB 2015 (.v5)
Vmware Horizon view 7.x
The Horizon VDI view environment is setup as floating desktop. Users dont get the same desktop each time they login, they get different desktop and their profile settings are saved to a shared network path (\\VIEWFILEshare\Persona-profile-share\username.companyname.V2)
We are attempting to migrate VDI persona profile from Windows 7 (.v2) to Windows 10 (.v5).
File structure:
\\VIEWFILEshare\Persona-profile-share\username.companyname.V2
\\VIEWFILEshare\Persona-profile-share\username.companyname.V5
We have used the proper tool to migrate the persona management profile but once user logs in into the new environment (.v5) the user settings are not carried over, screen flickers, etc...
We followed this documentation front to back, left to right, up to down, inside to outside, to no avail.
https://pubs.vmware.com/horizon-62-view/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/view-62-profile-migration.pdf
Opened support case with VMware no luck so far.
Been reading around the web to just rename the user profile from .v2 to .v5 then have the user login to Windows 10 but it does not work in our case. It bricks the Windows 10 Start menu search, and other things don't work.
Have any of you migrated from v2 to v5 ?
