Operating systems supported for view connection Server 5.0

We have updated our current connection to 5.0 servers, but they run on Windows 2003 (64-bit). 5.0 view documentation indicates that the login Server 5.0 view must run on Windows 2003 R2 (32-bit) or Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit).

See http://pubs.vmware.com/view-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.view.installation.doc/GUID-37D39B4F-5870-4188-8B11-B6C41AE9133C.html

Our current connection servers are working fine on Windows 2003 (64-bit), so I wonder if the documentation is correct. I think that its more likely that Version 5.0 require a x 64 Windows.

Connection to the server may run on other variants of the OS, but you only need to run it on one of the supported operating systems.

Also note that for the PCoIP gateway features, the connection to the server or Security Server must be running that Server 2008 R2 64-bit.

  • everyone knows the operating systems supported for view 4.5 Server (composer and connection broker)

    the broker to view connections 4.1 isn't able to run on windows server 2008 and R2.

    the view composer 4.1 (2.x) does not run on a Server 2008 R2 as it is supported only on OSes x32bit or Server 2008 X 64. (Yes, know hacks fixs it, but it's still not supported)

    Does anyone know if versjons the broker for the connections and composer v4.5 can run om Windows server 2008 R2 or 2008?

    Guess the composer runs om X 64 for Vsphere 4.1 is x 64 only?

    see you soon,

    Frode.

    I can tell you that the composer can run on X 64 because it is the only way to install vCenter now and that the connection brokers can be 2008 R2.

    Is R2 platform support?

    What is listed in the compatibility matrix is correct, then Yes.

    I read the correct documentation that SQL 2008 Express is NOT supported as vCenter database?

    Yes.  Use you it as a database, or just use the SQL SERVER 2005 Express that comes with vCenter?

  • Operating system support for installed components

    vmware view agent can be installed in Windows Server 2003.

    IM reading the View Manager Administration Guide and say that view agent can be installed in virtual and physical

    • Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Terminal Server

    • Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Server Terminal Server SP2

    but I don't really understand, I should have set up the role of the server terminal server?

    Thank you

    You add the Terminal Server server role and install the agent.

    In this way, you can add a pool of Terminal Server Services in the display manager and connect to a TS session through the view manager.

    You will NOT be able to use Windows Server 2003 as a virtual office. This only works with Windows XP, Vista and Win7.

  • Can not find Workstation 11 documents that specify host for Linux operating system support

    I had all the versions of the workstation since version 3 or 4, and in all cases, Workstation ran on a Linux OS support.  For now, I have both Debian and Red Hat Linux workstations and prefer to stay with Red Hat for my work of VMware Workstation. However I find no actual docs for workstation 11 who tell me what rev of Red Hat Linux is supported. Also, I don't see the real support as available contracts more. Once upon a time, you could buy support workstation. I already have systems of vSphere 5.5 to work and they have full support, but I can't support 7 x 24 production on my computer it seems. in any case, what is the actual supported Red Hat Linux tricks? 6.6 worm or am I stuck goes Red Hat 7?

    Thanks to anyone who really knows.

    response to me here:

    After a bunch of research, I get to a page that tells me to get the compatibility guide:

    VMware Workstation 11 Documentation Centre

    Who gets finally me:

    http://www.VMware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php

    Which is useless for workstation because it lists only the products of ESXi.

    Always to research... and I get this:

    http://www.VMware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=software

    Nope... It does not help... I select "Host OS" and is told to go elsewhere:

    The host operating system compatibility information has been moved to the following location:


    http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2100429


    Host operating system support information (2100429)

    Goal

    Supported host operating system data are removed from the Compatibility Guide VMware (VCG) to other articles of the basis of knowledge (KBs).
    This article KB then told me to go somewhere else to:

    Operating systems supported for VMware Workstation guests (2088579)

    your da!
    The answer is that 11 workstations is supported on some types of Linux and the most notable are:
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.10
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.0 (note: 7 RHEL is horrible)
    The answer is therefore a flat NO WAY for Debian or one of its close brothers.  Strictly big business Linux here.
    Nice hide details in seventeen deep research.

    I guess you are trying to download from the Adobe web site.  If you are using WIndows Vista/XP or Mac OS X 10.6.8.

    Install Adobe Application Manager and update and connect.

    It will automatically detect the version of Illustrator that is compatible with your computer and the same list.

    Then you can go ahead and install the same.

    The message indicates that your system does not neet the system requirements for the version of Illustrator, you are trying to use.  If this is the latest version of Vista is probably too old to meet the requirements.  In any case, here is a link to the system requirements for all versions of Illustrator... choose the one that you try to use and compare their needs to your system to see where you come up short...

  • View connection Server 5.0 running?

    I would like to know exactly how server connection works in VMware View environment.

    My understanding of the connection to the server

    (1) authenticates the user

    (2) the connection between the client and the virtual desktop negotiating

    (3) transfers Office

    Once the user is logged on the desktop, all traffic passes between the office and customer view, and in the meantime if connection server goes down, the user can continue working without interruption? And if the Security server is installed all the flow of traffic through the Security Server? And also so that the connection to the server is out of service new users won't be able to connect to their desktop computer.

    I would also like to know the functioning of the server of replicas of my understanding, that it is an exact copy of the connection to the server? In the scenario where our main login server breaks down the replica server will take over its own or users will need to type the replica server address to connect to their desktop and how can balance us the load between the connection to the server and server replicas. Any help will be much appreciated.

    The best answer on the functioning of the connection to the server just PG 97 view installation doc http://pubs.vmware.com/view-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/view-51-installation.pdf

    The customer connection view initial, which is used for authentication of users and the desktop view selection, is created

    over HTTPS when a user provides a domain name to View Client. If the firewall and load balancing software are

    configured properly in your network environment, this request is received by the server connection or safety view

    the server host. In this respect, users are authenticated and your desktop is selected, but users have not yet

    connected to desktop view.

    When users connect to view desktop computers, by default, View customer makes a second connection to the view

    Connection to the server or host security server. This is called the tunnel connection because it provides

    a tunnel secured for the transport of the RDP and other data via HTTPS.

    When users connect to computers view from office with the PCoIP display protocol, View Client can make another

    connection to PCoIP Secure Gateway on the host server login to view or to the Security server. The PCoIP

    Secure gateway ensures that only authenticated users can connect with desktop view with PCoIP.

    When the secure tunnel or PCoIP Secure Gateway is disabled, the desktop view sessions are established directly

    between the client system and the virtual desktop computer from view, bypassing the view connection server or

    host server security. This type of connection is called a direct connection.

    Desktop sessions that use direct connections remain connected even if view connection to the server is no longer

    running.

    How to use a server replication and a connection to the server is to place them behind a load balancer.  One of the servers stops the balancer work load is modified to send all traffic to the job server.  If you use also servers security for connections outside the DMZ, security servers have a connection for a connection to the server and the load balancer will in front of security servers.

    Hope that helps

    Hello

    I would like to inform you that Jucheck.exe is the process that runs automatically when the Java Update tool is activated. Jucheck.exe usually checks the Internet for the software updates available and invite you to install them to keep your updated program. If you prefer to search and download the Java updates manually whenever you want, disable Java Update automatic tool disables and removes Jucheck.exe

  • The view connection server connection failure - and that's it.

    Hi all

    I use a box of 10 Windows with Horizon View Client 5.4.1. Our connections are enabled smart cards. When I run the view of the Horizon, I get the login server and hit connect. I am asked to choose a certificate; I choose the right pair, enter my PIN and then get an error message saying "connection to the view connection server failed." And that's the entire message. When I choose the right certificate, get "the connection to the view connection server is not. " No user could not be found for your certificate." That tells me that it's to reach the server, but without more info, I can not find the problem.

    I opened a session with a view to the Horizon with other machines and can I use my chip card with other sites on this computer. There are ports should I open to view Horizon? What else can I try?

    I started poking around outside the view of the Horizon and found the problem, I'll leave it here in case anyone else has this problem. I had to go to Internet Options-> content in-> certificates-> Select Certificate-> advanced and enable authentication of the Client.

  • Disable the protocols and encryption algorithms in VMware View connection server and security

    Hello

    In my recent deployment, I had a customer request to disable some protocols and encryption at the Server VMware View connection and security. I read some articles and found that this has been achieved by editing the locked.properties file. But when we have edited and replaced the file, users could not connect to the virtual desktop, so came back to us backwards and desktop computers worked fine.

    I found a few articles that we don't need to edit the locked.properties file in VMware view Horizon 6. If someone has done this please guide me through. Here are the details of the protocols and encryption algorithms that should be disabled

    Diffie-Hellman key

    Enable SSL v2/V3 and TLS 1.1 and 1.2

    Disable the RC4 encryption algorithm

    Select the secret of transfer (if possible)


    VMware view 6 is the connection to the server and security server.


    Thank you.

    Hello

    I implemented the following steps (from the manual):

    1. update the JCE policy files to take in charge the high-strength Cipher Suites

    You can add some cipher suites of high resistance for greater assurance, but first you must update the local_policy.jar and US_export_policy.jar files to each server instance and the security strategy for JRE 7 see connection to the server. You update these policy files by downloading the files to extend JCE (Java Cryptography) unlimited strength political jurisdiction from the Oracle Java SE download site 7.

    If you include some high-strength cipher suites in the list and you do not replace the policy files, you cannot restart the VMware view Horizon connection to the Server service.

    Policy files are located in the directory C:\Program View\Server\jre\lib\security from VMware.

    For more information on the download of the JCE unlimited strength jurisdiction policy 7 files, see the Oracle Java SE download site: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.

    After you update the policy files, you need to create backups of the files. If you upgrade the instance of the view connection server or security server, any changes you have made to these files can be replaced, and you may need to restore the backup files.

    2. the changes that policies of global acceptance with ADSI Edit

    • Start the ADSI utility on your computer see connection to the server.
    • In the console tree, select Connect to
    • In the selection or type a unique name text box or a naming context, type the unique name
      DC, DC = vdi is vmware, DC = int.
    • In the type or select a text field or the server box, select or type localhost: 389 or the name of a fully qualified domain (FQDN) of the server computer to connect to port 389 followed view.

    For example: localhost: 389 or mycomputer.mydomain.com:389

    • Expand the tree of the ADSI Editor, OU = properties, select OU = Global, then select OU = common in the right pane.
    • On the object CN = common, Global = UO, UO = properties, select each attribute that you want to change and enter the new list of security protocols or cipher suites.
      I used the following settings:

    EAP-ServerSSLCipherSuites: \LIST:TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256

    EAP-ServerSSLSecureProtocols_ \LIST:TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2

    It is not the highest possible, but they work with all the features of our customers.

    • Restart the service of VMware view Horizon connection server (server connection and security).

    This is not Activate secret transfer (if possible) , but other points are covered.

    If anyone can give a tip to activate the transfer secret, I would be grateful.

  • Download link on the standard view connection server landing page no longer works (see 5.1)

    Hello

    We noticed a problem in the last week or so when clients attempt to download the client to view the launch of our view connection server page.

    The link is https://www.vmware.com/info?id=1109#win

    Who then is forwarded when it lands on the vmware site at

    https://my.VMware.com/Web/VMware/info/slug/desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_horizon_view_clients/1_0#win

    Unfortunately it is no longer available then you get pushed back to the root of the VMware download page.

    After doing a little digging, I discovered that the link to the download of the client page is now

    https://my.VMware.com/Web/VMware/info/slug/desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_horizon_clients/1_0#win

    So, it seems that VMware withdrew the designation of the download page view.

    No doubt other people have this problem too?

    Now, I know that I can change the link on the launch of the connect to Server page, but I'd rather have this fixed on the side of VMware so that I don't have to worry about updating the link when VMware change their website.

    Sincere greetings

  • View Connection Server Manager - column 'User' not showing not connected in the accounts to the inventory of a Fund of the pool

    Hello

    I am trying to identify the point of failure in communication between a pool of related clones and the view connection server - which prevents the management console to see if-and-who is connected to a particular linked clone VM.

    He showed the status of 'User' correctly in the past, but after several re-compositions and to implement a McAfee Firewall required on the connection server, composer and each Linked-Clone - it stopped. Windows Firewall is disabled machines.

    I spent some time already tuning firewall McAfee to enable all required traffic and services and everything works - it seems fair that he is unable to take inventory on the linked clones with regard to if someone is logged in one.

    I suppose that the Agent view handles make this info on the login server, but I can't seem to identify the communication which is apparently filtered, when everything else seems to work in the infrastructure of the view.

    I'm testing with the firewall turned off to see if I can get it working again.

    I have attached a perforated Cap where is the problem.

    Thanks in advance,

    It may be a stretch but check the Userinit registry key located at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogin.   You want to ensure that C:\Program VMware View\Agent\bin\wssm.exe is specified in this key as will facilitate the session/user information to the broker for the connections once connected.
