Expanding persistent disk sizes

$

Dear all,

 

I have an automated desktop pool with a persistent disk size of 2048mb. When I try to expand the persistent disk size throug view manager, only newly created machines are affected.

 

Even if I recompose the existings settings are not taken over.

 

I can manually change all persistent disks through the vsphere client and expand them in Windows  but that is not the best way of working.

 

Can I force these settings to existing desktops in the pool?

 

Running VMWare View 4.6 on ESX 3.5 Update 5 Environment.

 

Any help is welcome

View Agent and RDSH and mapped drives

$

We use an accounting software where backend is SQL and all necessary files are located on a network share, users would need that folder mapped with a specific drive letter in order to use the application.

 

I have application installed on RDS server, in my evaluation of Horizon 7, I noticed that when I installed view agent on the RDS server and log onto that server that particular mapped drive would have a red x over it as if it is disconnected, however if you double click it, you can access the shared drive, Having the Red X on the mapped drive then prevents me from either adding the application to application pool or application would be published with errors when attempting to run it. All other mapped drives would show up as normal.

 

If I uninstall View agent on RDS server, the mapped drive appears as normal and program works as normal.

 

When I launch a desktop from desktop pool the drive maps as normal and I can access the program without issues.

 

Grateful for any assistance.

Guest VM detects client machine local network drop or instability and causes network sensitive Citrix apps to close/crash

$

For some reason unbeknownst to my team and I, our main clinical app (Cerner Millennium which is hosted remotely and accessed via Citrix) - crashes or closes when there is suddenly poor or no network connectivity (normally happens with roaming wireless ThinClients or PCs with VMware Horizon Client) on the Client of the guest VM.

 

I was under the impression the the local network connection has no bearing on the remote virtual OS/VM other than whether you're connected or disconnected to the session...

 

Does anyone know exactly how the local network connection is "connected" to the guest VM's network and if there's any settings to change the behavior of the guest VM's dependence on the local network connection?

 

It seems that Citrix is the only app that gets adversely affected by the local network dropouts.

Hi Everyone,

 

I need to create desktop pool of windows 10 with build 1803.

from this article VMware Knowledge Base  it seems that I need Horizon Agent with version 7.3.2 or newer.

My question is if connection server 7.0.2 can manage desktop clones with newer Horizon Agent version ?

is there any compatibility matrix for that ?

Linux view client not working

I have XUbuntu 16.04.5 (32-bit version) on my computer, and downloaded the VMWare Horizon View client (version 4.9).

Whenever I attempt to login to my work VDI, there is a 2-step authentication process which seems successful, but then when I open a desktop, it always closes immediately.

I posted to the parent forum of this forum but no troubleshooting suggestions yet beyond what I already tried, for example:

which haven't worked so far.  Any other suggestions?

Office Licensing in VMware Horizon view 7

$

We are having Horizon view 7 in our environment. Currently 55 VDI Machines are running with Windows 10 LTSB OS and Office 2013. OS and Office activation are pointed to KMS server.

All are linked clone machines with dedicated assignment and users will get the same desktop when relogin.

 

We are planning to deploy additional 50 more VDI machines with the same image. My question is that How the office 2013 licensing will work in VDI enviroment?

Do we need Office 2013 license for each desktop that we provisioned? ie, for additional 55 VDI, 55 more office license has to purchase?

Any CCU license available for Office 2013?

What is the best approach for Office 2013 licensing in VDI environment? If i create office 2013 thinapp will this help?

 

Appreciate your help.

Hi,

 

I would like to know how office 2013/2016 licensing will work in Vmware Horizon 7 VDI enviroment.

As far i know MS office licenses are per device based license.

So if we create 100 VDI desktops with Office 2013 installed, we need to purchase 100 Office 2013 license?

Is there any subscription based license available for Office, same like OS Subscription?

 

Please help.

Segregating 2FA users, or different configs on Connection servers

$

Sorry the title is a mouthful.

 

I'm trying to implement UAG setup, as currently we use VPN and its being decommissioned.  Currently we have 2 groups of users, one group is filtered via IP, and another group enforces MFA. All of this is handled via VPN.  I want to try and have the same setup through UAG.  My problem is I can't verify if you can have different configurations on multiple connection servers within the same pod, meaning connection01 does not have any 2FA, while connection02 is set to enforce.  This would mean I could point separate UAGs, to each connection server.  Is there a better way to do this?   If it matters, I'm looking at using Okta MFA with RADIUS (via this link Configure VMware Horizon View to Interoperate with Okta via RADIUS | Okta

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

Horizon on Thin Clients w/ Blast

$
0
0

We're a Horizon 7.3.2 shop (soon to be Horizon 7.8), that is trying to move to Blast as our protocol standard. We utilize Wyse 5010/5070 terminals (ThinOS), and are deploying a Horizon 4.8 PKG to them. That's what enables Blast on them.

 

Our deployment site is about 1,000 terminals (we have 5,000 in total), that all started using Blast last week to connect to a Windows 10 linked clone pool. 'm a bit sensitive about hearing any random sporadic issues, as my first thought is "hmmm I wonder if it's because they are Blast now?", and I get a little OCD about it. I mainly started this thread to hear anything from people who have moved on to Blast, preferably but not exclusively with thin clients, and any experience/tips/suggestions you may have. We did NOTHING to modify the environment in anyway for Blast from the Horizon/AD/GPO side of things. We literally just said ok pools, you're Blast now and not PCoIP.

 

Are network is pretty robust. The onsite terminals connect to VMs in our data centers sub millisecond and only about 10 miles apart.

 

I plan on posting a similar question to Dell counterparts as well, since that would cover the ThinOS side of the equation.

 

Thanks in advance.
