ThinPrint (Horizon 7) - Printing via PDF (Garbled Text)

March 2, 2018, 2:51 am
$

0

Hi folks,

 

We recently deployed Windows 10 desktops and App Volumes/ UEM.

 

Give you an idea - linked clone/floating:

- Windows 10 Pro x64

- VMWare Tools 10.1.15.6677369

- Horizon Agent 7.4.0

 

The problem: A user prints off a PDF file using Thin Print and it sometimes (not always) prints it out as garbled text, other times, it will not print out the whole document, only parts.

 

I'm not sure why this is happening. I have generated Thin Print logs but am not sure what I'm looking for - perhaps someone here might know?

 

I've tried different versions of the agent/tools to no avail. Different PDF applications. Various printer settings.

 

Anyone come across this and could possibly advise on some things to try?

 

Many thanks,

Travis

Recomposing Win10 1709 with Horizon 7.4, stuck at customizing

February 7, 2018, 6:18 am

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.

Embedded VCSAs in Horizon View Pod / Block designs?

April 29, 2017, 12:16 am

Since it seems you overcome SPOFs in View by deploying multiple venters behind a series of load balanced connection servers, I’m wondering if deploying multiple PSCs behind an F5 and battling with certificates to provide SSO services in a pod is really worth the complexity it brings?

 

I guess you lose linked mode / single pane of glass stuff, and you’ll have to configure identity sources / ad integration in multiple places…..but is there anything that would cause headaches down the line when growing into a multi-pod environment?  Ie - 3 datacenters, 1 pod in each datacenter, 2 or 3 resource blocks per pod?

 

Just seems like it *might* be a simpler deployment to use a single embedded VCSA per resource block…..?

 

Any thoughts?  What are you guys doing out in the field?  Especially those who have deployed or work with large, multi datacenter/pod deployments.

 

Thanks.

Pool publish error after agent upgrade

Current Infrastructure:

 

ESXi/vCenter: 6.0u2

Connection Server: 7.4

Agent: 7.1

Gold Image: Win7 sp1

 

When I upgraded Horizon 7.0.3 to to 7.4 the connection server will throw the timeout error below:

 

2018-03-01T13:09:22.765-08:00 ERROR (0E58-1788) <WFE-06> [WaitForInternalTemplateAction] Internal Template: vm-25841 customization appears to not have succeeded. State = error

I have installed every agent release on the gold image from 7.0.3 to 7.4 and anything > 7.1 will throw the publishing error.  Was there anything that changed from the 7.1 to 7.2 release that I am missing that could be causing this?   Any help would be appreciated.

Pool wont start provisioning

Weird issue here. I've got a pool of floating linked clones that has been relatively stable. I wanted to create a test pool, so that I can test out changes to the golden image before pushing to the production pool. So I cloned the production pool. Everything is set identically. The pool is enabled but will not do anything. Nothing at all. I'm not getting any messages or errors in view or vcenter. Our company is 100% vdi and I've been doing this for several years, so not a newbie. All of the normal stuff has been checked. I've checked the logs on composer and I don't see anything that stands out or indicates that there is an issue. Meanwhile, other pools are working fine. Anyone have any idea of what might be causing this? We're on relatively current versions of everything.

Multimonitor setup - USB Display Adapter

March 4, 2018, 10:02 am

Hi,

 

My Windows 10 laptop currently has one HDMI-out port, which I use to connect one external monitor.  I also have a Dell USB 3.0 display adapter (470ABHH) that will allow me to connect a 2nd display via the laptop's USB 3.0 port.  The adapter works when using Windows.

 

The goal is to use dual monitor remoting via the Horizon Client on these external monitors.  When I log into the remote machine via Horizon client (but with USB display adapter disconnected, and thus 2nd external monitor disconnected), I can see dual remote display on my external HDMI-connected monitor and on my laptop screen.  So it works in this case.  However, when I log into the remote machine via Horizon client (but with USB display adapter connected, thus 2nd external monitor connected), the dual display stops working, and the desktop from the remote machine only displays on my laptop screen.  I want to see the remote desktops on my two external monitors, but it doesn't give me the option.  Am I doing something wrong, or does Horizon client not work with the USB display adapter? 

 

Will it work if I can turn off USB redirection for the adapter? 

 

I know this question was touched upon several years ago in thread: USB Display Adapters

 

But that was several years ago, and I wanted to know if this capability was added. 

 

Thank you..

Horizon View 7.3.2 - Linux VDI - Screen Resolution

I just deployed five VDI using SLED 12. My issue here is that when i connect using the Horizon View Client the screen resolution is 800x600 yet the screen resolution of the Operating System is 1920x1200 and if i connect to the VM using VMRC from vSphere Client the display works okay.

 

I am using 128 MB vRAM on the Virtual Machine and the Desktop Pool resolution is set on 2560x1600 just for test.

 

Any idea if this is a known issue?

Rebooting UAGs

We have 2 UAGs in our DMZ, that are connected to 2 connection brokers via an F5 LTM. Our understanding was a benefit of the UAGs vs. security servers, was that if users are connected using UAG, they will not get kicked if we have to restart one of the UAGs. Essentially if the connection is brokered, the UAG is out of the mix. But that's not what we're seeing. When we reboot a UAG, the person gets bounced. Is our expectation of this behavior incorrect?

Hi All and thanks in advance for your attention and time. 

 

My question is why is the Horizon Client 233MB's in size.  When extracted the actual 32 bit app is 1.4MB's.  What is the additional bloat that is included in this executable?  Am I in the clear just deploying the 1.4MB client to 32 bit and 64 bit systems?  Thanks again.

Shift, Control, Mouse Wheel Not working Win10 v 4.5.0

Since my Windows 10 upgrade several months back, my VMware Horizon client doesn't recognize my shift key, control key nor mouse wheel.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and have spent hours scouring the internet for anyone experiencing a similar issue.  To date, I've found nothing... so I'm hoping one of you can help me find the secret setting I'm missing...

 

I'm running 4.5.0 build-5615124 on Windows 10 Home 64bit on a Dell XPS with an i7-2.2Ghz running 8Gb RAM.

I've tried switching between multiple keyboards and mice; but currently am using a Microsoft wireless set.

 

I'll take any tips you've got... Horizon is all-but useless to me without the Control and Shift keys.

 

Regards,

-=B

Random "Pending Session Expired" issue with View v5.0 & PCoIP

April 17, 2012, 1:09 am

Hello Everyone,

 

We have gone through the VMWare documentation & forums but unfortunately have had no luck with finding fix to this problem so far...

 

We have recently established a 300 seat VMware View v5.0 environment for a student environment at a university.

 

The system is generally running pretty well. However, we have been encountering a significant number of the following warning message in our View Console. These errors seem to occur randomly (maybe for about 10% of all login attempts);

 

  • "The pending session on machine XXXXX for user XXXXX has expired"

 

Further investigation has revealed that

  • The View Mgt console shows that the user has successfully authenticated and been assigned a VM... but after 15mins "pending session expired"
  • If another user is later assigned the same VM by the View broker they are able to login and use it OK.
  • Doesn't seem to be linked to the physical location/network of the client. All our clients are located in same few locations/subnets.

 

 

When i look at the console of an affected VM though vSphere Mgt Client;

 

  • No logon event recorded in event viewer & no local profile folder has been created for the relevant user.

  • I can't see anything obvious that provides a clue about the problem in the PCoIP or View logs on the VM... Some sample logs are attached (the relevant time is around 2:49PM today 17th April).


 

  • The following Windows application event log entries of VMWare View (in order)
    • Immediately after user connection assigned to the VM by broker
      • Needed to disconnect existing PCoIP connection during requestConnection
      • PCoIP requested disconnect while busy !
      • Closed PCoIP value doesn't match global value
    • 15mins after broker assignment.
      • Pending portal logon timed out for user XXXX, wssm may have failed to start correctly, of the user was not able to connect and log in. Pending count left = 0
      • Closed PCoIPvalue doesn't mathcn global value

 

 

 

Some additional details about our environment that may be relevant;

  • We are using PCoIP protocol exclusively.
  • Windows version of the View Client (running on Win7 ThinPC edition on re-purposed desktops).
  • An F5 BIG-IP virtual appliance is being used to load balance connection requests between two connection brokers.
  • We aren't using secure tunnel mode for the PCoIP connections (once connected the Client and Agent are talking directly).
  • The golden master in Win7 x64.
  • We are using linked clones... pool is setup to refresh VM on logout.

 

I was hoping someone might have some ideas or suggestions about this weird problem please ?.

 

Thanks !

Dear all,

 

one of my staff said she could not connect her desktop vm22 and the view client said "the view agent reports that this desktop source is unable to accept connections". my view administrator displays that “the pending session on machine xx for user xxx has been expired” . but i then assigned another user to the same desktop, everything looks fine.

 

background:

1. I am using view 6.0.   

2. This user used to assigned another desktop vm06. it took a long long time (more than 30 minutes) to login (agent set not delete local persona) , This Morning when she tried to connect(already logged in before, here just reconnect),  she got "there is no available gateway for this display protocol". So i assigned her to another desktop vm22

 

Is there something wrong with this user account or something else. Need your help!!! Thanks in advance!

Windows 10 num/caps lock lights not working

I am working with VMware View Horizon 7 and Windows 10. During the process of me setting up the computers in vSphere, they are losing their Num/Caps Lock lights on the keyboard. I believe this is a setting in Windows or an update causing the issue. I just have not been able to determine which one. I was hoping that maybe someone else has ran into this and has thoughts or possible solutions for me. I have spent quite a bit of time on it already and getting close to calling MS.

 

For optimizations I ran the vmware optimization tool but did not choose everything.
