• How to enable HTML access in the office pool by using PowerShell script?

  Hello

  I use to create pools of auto related clones using a script PowerShell/PowerCLI Office. The script provides all the parameters required for the Add-AutomaticLinkedClonePool cmdlet and there is a lot of it! Creating pools in this way allows me to save about 100 clicks per pool.

  Now I want to enable access HTML for each pool, but I can't seem to find the name of the parameter.

  I checked the properties of the object returned by Get-pool-pool_id w7mw620 and compared to other similar properties office pool where access HTML has been disabled. I coulnd't not see any differences in the property values, which seem to make a significant difference for the setting "enable access HTML '.

  There was a property named "calculatedValues", which was true for one and False for the other office pool. I don't know what is the meaning of this property. Help the cmdlet Add-AutomaticLinkedClonePool or AutomaticLinkedClone-set to list this property.

  So... How can I set the property to allow access HTML from a PowerCLI script?

  Hello, in response to my own question again...

  On the basis of the above VBScript example, I invented this PowerShell code snippet that does the work of activation / deactivation of HTML access to one or more funds pools, by adding or removing 'BLAST' to the allowed protocols. It's a beast of a code, and I think that this code can still be optimized/shortcut. It works for me. It allows the use of wildcards to select a number of pools of office to toggle HTML access to.

  To use it, just customize two variables constant to match your environment:

  $dn must maintain the name of the root of your ADAM database. I think that this name is the default, but I don't know about you.

  $domain must maintain the computer name or address IP and/or port number where the ADAM database is stored. You must also have sufficient permissions to connect if it is something else then "localhost".

  function Set-BCPoolHtmlAccess ([string]$Pool_id, [boolean]$HtmlAccess) {
  <#
      .SYNOPSIS
          enables or disables HTML Access to the given VMware View desktop pool
      .DESCRIPTION
          This function enable or disable HTML Access to a desktop pool, by modifying
          the "pae-ServerProtocolLevel" property of the associated object in the ADAM
          database via LDAP. This property is a multi-valued attribute contains a array
          of string, which designates
          by which protocol desktops can be accessed. It valid values are "PCOIP",
          "RDP" and "BLAST". Controlling the existance of the string "BLAST" determines
          if the pool is accessible through HTML Access. The parameter Pool_id determines
          which object is modified.
      .EXAMPLE
          Set-BCPoolHtmlAccess "W7ST620" $True
      .PARAMETER Pool_id
          the pool_id of the desktop pool of which to enable or disable HTML access. Wildcards are allowed!
      .PARAMETER HtmlAccess
          Boolean value to set the HTML Access to.

          Written by Paul Wiegmans on 31-8-2014
          "pae-ServerProtocolLevel" is a multivalued attribute, which is a little difficult to
          write correctly to the object.

• View 4.0 cannot create Auto Pool offices... Office VcFault composer

  We run ESX 4.0.0 on our guests and we are conducting a demo of VMware View 4.0.  We try to create a pool of office automated using clones related with the composer of the VM.  However, when we create the pool and the composer tries to create a clone using the master Win XP VM we get an error in vCenter (a specified parameter was not correct. spec.snapshot).  In the console admin View 4, we get several ambiguous errors:

  Control of the pool for office-xp pc is crippling supply due to an error of clone - composer VcFault Office:

  Pool cn = a8b47af6-1ce5-47ab-ba70-f679d8fd7cf3, or = virtualcenter, OU = propriΘtΘs, dc = vdi, dc is vmware, dc = int::Unable to create the new VM - composer VcFault Office: see the full log of error events

  Office VcFault composer: see log full error events - Unknown -.

  I have studied this issue until my eyes started to bleed!  I even did that my master VM has no "Independent Disks", which has been reported to have caused similar problems for 3 - ESX3.5 configurations.

  If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate the help.

  Thank you

  Dear all,

  Is it possible to create a pool of automatic Linux(Fedora/Ubuntu) Office?

• Creating a Pool of offices

  Hello

  I am evaluation seen to replace ACE and am unable to find passenger step 8 on page 114 of the configuration guide.  It asks me to select a Parent VM to use as a base image for deployment, but it then filters everything so I can't continue.

  I created the virtual machine, added the viewagent, released from the ip address of the machine and power it off.  I then took a snapshot of this virtual machine in Virtual Center.  Yet I do not see the virtual machine, I want to use for my office pool.  What should I check?  Am I missing something?  I tried leaving the VM off the coast and it turn.  I also took several snapshots that I can come back, so I know that aspect works.

  Ideas?

  Thank you

• How to create a Pool of connections to two different databases in OBIEE

  Hello

  I have a requirement where few reports coming from databases and a few others to another database. I created two pools of connections and added the frame connection details. But when I created the report I get error as below.

  State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error occurred. [nQSError: 43113] The message returned by OBIS.

  Now, I would like to see if I can create a pool of connections to two different databases. If so, how that happen.

  Thank you!

  Hi Antonio,.

  Cross database joins are possible, no problem for it. But you do not do so in an object of unique data base in the physical layer using 2 pools of connections connection to the source A and B, then adding objects to A and B children of your unique database.

  You create 2 databases in the physical layer, each with its own connection pool, then you can do your knuckles crossed on the physical schema.

  As a picture is worth a thousand words, take a look:

  

  The physical diagram uses objects of A and B and define the rules of the join between them, it is a cross-database join. But in the physical layer of the database A and B are 2 separate objects each with its own pool of connections.

• Manual office pool

  Hello

  I'm trying to create a pool of manual offices Horizon 6.1. I chose other sources because I don't want to use Vcenter.

  I see not all virtual machines to add to this list manually, however, a virtual machine (Windows 7) is on an esxi with a horizon installed agent.

  Is there something to do to add this virtual machine?

  For more information, I am able to create a manual pool of offices with one or more VM inside the Vcenter. But I need to create a pool of manual offices without Vcenter...

  Thank you for your help,

• Office pool resources settings

  Hello

  I play with view 6.0 and have a simple question.

  I'm creating a pool of offices and vCenter selection settings I choose the data store for the following

  Linked clones data store

  Replica disk data store

  When I choose these, impact on other virtual machines that are on these data store, I want to say I need to a data store "empty"? I guess that it does not interfere with other virtual machines on this store, but just to be sure

  Thanks for the reply

  They need not be empty and must not interfere with the other vm:s stored in data warehouses unless the vm:s have the same names.

• Understand manual office pool and floating pools?

  I therefore my view environment built and I have two fully optimized WIn 7 basic images for review I want to test. I want to create manual desktop pool before I started creating pools linked Clone, but IM a bit confused...  (1) to take a snapshot or convert my WIn 7 image to a model in order to to use in a pool of manual?  (2) when I am creating a Pool of floating linked CLone, what should I do to get this loan with this type of pool? I need to convert instantly or create a template?  I intend using a different image of Win 7 for this pool.  Any help will be greatly appreciated!

  1: with a pool stick is not creaeding the office so you simply pick a computer from vCenter to add to the pool.

  2: with a linked clone floating pool reminds you the pool to a snapshot on the main picture and then view build a pool based on this image.

  Hello

  You must add users and domain accounts to viewcomposer settings before creating the automated pool.

  This can be done by editing entry vCenter in coneection broker and providing credentials of domain/under "settings View Composer".

• Create the pool a duplicate name exists on the network

  Hi all

  I did an installation of View manager 3.0.1 on a client.

  The I ve problem is that when I deploy a pool of computers from a Windows XP template, Virtualcenter begins to create jobs and give the same name to VM on several desktop computers. i. e. I create a pool of 4 desktop computers, I, made a customization of comments through virtualcenter, indicating that the name of the client should be VDI and check the option Add a numeric value.

  When virtualcenter has finished creating the jobs, I see desktop dns names are VDI-0, 0 - VDI, VDI-1 and VDI-1.

  VirtualCenter begins to create VMS by pairs almost at the same time. This is the reason why he assings the same name for 2 virtual machines.

  At present, there is no DHCP. the customization file is set to use DHCP and add to that the field despite this machine will not work.

  I don't know why virtualcenter deploy 2 virtual machines at the same time time.

  Could someone tell me where is the problem?

  Thanks in advance.

  First of all, vCenter will always try to do two processes at the same time. You can adjust it when you added vCenter to view (the advanced settings allow you to adjust it higher or lower).

  Second, if the customization file requires DHCP and you do not have, they always miss and that's maybe why you get two the same ID (he's trying to create them, they do not, then trying it again).

  Download DHCP, first working to remove it so that the deployment can fully operate.

  And what do you mean by: '.. '. Check the option Add a numeric value. Where did you get this? Can put you up a screenshot?

  Hello, I have a problem with windows vista, I can't rename a new folder, when I create a new folder and then rename the folder, the folder was renamed "new folder" can you help me? to solve this problem?

  Only time that happens, in my limited, knowledge is... If you use a 'illegal' name, such as ":" symbol. There are symbols, that you cannot use as part of a name. When this happens, you should get a warning indicating that the name is not allowed, something to that effect. Then he returns itself back to the new folder.
  Suggest you try again with conventional names. See if it works or not.
