• Redirect USB in Windows server 2012

  I was wondering if redirect USB in Windows Server 2012 could take charge of the concurrent users.

  I mean, for instance, two users A and B are connected to the same remote server from WS 2012 and the user has plugged a USB stick into his computer ThinClient and forwarding, is it possible that the user that was able to find this USB and do some operations with this USB?

  Please offer me some hints BTW.

  Thank you.

  Yes, that's correct. storage devices are not visible between sessions.

• See 5.2 - sysprep breaks redirect USB

  Just a quick note in case no matter who else goes through.

  My clone related (Windows 7 Pro 64-bit) deployment process looks like this:

  Install/update applications that I need on my main image (the virtual machine is not joined to the domain)

  The VMware tools update and the Client to display for the new versions

  The machine for a new virtual machine clone

  Run sysprep on the clone (mainly to get the admin profile copied into the default profile for new users - the 'right' way to do it under Windows 7)

  Join the clone to the domain and log in to get GP to run (adds printers, ScriptLogic agent etc.)

  Stop the clone, snap it and use it as my base image to deploy my clones (using quickprep)

  Everything good, work great for a year and then I've upgraded to 5.2. As soon as I did it, redirect USB stopped working. VMware USB devices in Device Manager show 'work' and there is no errors will connect to the event. In the view of a zero client logs customer, I see this:

  28/03/2013, 07:06:29.688 > RC LVL:2: 0 SOFT_USB: usb_urboip_process_plugin2: connection of device USB\Vid_013fd & Pid_0842 (device_handle 0 x 00000403)

  28/03/2013, 07:06:29.688 > LVL:1 RC :-500 SOFT_USB: usb_urboip_process_rx_buffer: PLUGIN2 treatment failure

  Thought it might have been a failed upgrade to view customer, so I went back to my master (non-Sysprep image) and re-directed the View Client installation. Any help - deployed again and still no USB. A decided to eliminate some steps and published my master (non-Sysprep) machine in a manual pool. Connected by a zero client and USB worked.

  To make a long story - and four hours on the phone with VMware support - shorter, looks that sysprep breaks USB redirection with the 5.2 client. We don't know why, but if I reinstall or repair the Client View after you run sysprep, it is fixed. I have a file of unattended installation of dead-simple sysprep that adds two or three user accounts, tells sysprep to copy the admin profile the default profile, sets the language and license keys, and that's all. Nothing for devices (no new analysis full PnP), just a "generalize" and "/ oobe" on the command line. But even with these settings simple redirection failure.

  Support will try to repro the problem in the lab, but I thought I'd post it here in case someone else is going through the question.

  Hi Geoff

  We saw some people with similar problems. We believe that there may be a problem when the upgrade is made of an earlier view. In your original post you mention:

  "If I reinstall or repair the Client View after you run sysprep, it is fixed. Did you reinstall/repair the agent rather than the customer? All the problems that we have investigated were caused by agent side issues rather than the client's problems.

  I was wondering if you could try something to see if that fixes the problem.

  After you get your agent to the required version of view, but before performing the operation of sysPrep. Please first confirm that the agent works for USB redirection. In order to solve the problem, you are facing here are one of 2 ways to do this. One way works for some people, and another works for others. Would appreciate feedback on your results.

  before the command sysPrep but confirmed USB redirection works;

  Method 1: (which does not work for some, not all)

  1. go to Device Manager and remove the 'VMWare View virtual USB Hub' device.

  2. right click in the Device Manager and look for changes on the hardware. This should re - install the latest version of the driver vhub.

  3. restart the agent

  Check now if USB still works and try again your sysPrep as before.

  Method 2: (once again before the sysPrep operation)

  1 find the machine for "vmwvhub.sys." There are several versions found, including C:\Windows\System32\drivers\ and c:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository. The version stored in C:\Program VMware View\Agent\bin\drivers\should be the latest version for your installation of the agent. (probably 5.5.0 xxxx)

  2 remove instances of these files that have one version other than the most recent 5.5.0 build-949580. The former display drivers will probably be a version 5.1.0 build-668184.

  3. now restart and confirm functions yet USB. The driver loaded in Device Manager must be a 5.5.0.

  Now try the operation of sysPrep.

  Let me know if one or the other of these work for you,

  Kind regards

  > Really bad news

  Yep - but not really news - older versions of the workstation all have this problem with Windows 7 guests - which is why I still use 2003
  I would setup just the Ubuntu VM in a regular vmdk ANDS store it on any of your other 3 discs

  I was able to get a fix to work for 8.02 on my installation of Ubuntu update.  VMWare offered an update and the new update, 8.03, notinstall.  I have the same breakpoint in this version, which I fixed with this patch. http://communities.vmware.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/2025997-86343/vmware802fixlinux320.tar.gz patch found in this thread: http://communities.vmware.com/message/2030083#2030083 is another update patch?  the problem in the module vmnet appars.

  Jay

  I fixed mine by modifying the script patch (patch - modules_3.2.0.sh)

  From:

  fpatch = vmware3.2.0.patch
  vmreqver = the version 8.0.2
  plreqver = 4.0.2

  TO:

  fpatch = vmware3.2.0.patch
  vmreqver = 8.0.3
  plreqver = 4.0.2

  and remove the old flag of patch:

  sudo rm /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/.patched

  Then run the patch as usual:

  sudo./patch-modules_3.2.0.sh vmware3.2.0.patch

  Hope that helps.

• Redirect USB option

  Hi guys. Before somewhere I red on USB redirection options. I want unilateral redirecting USB configuration. The customer to only light VM or block of VM USB redirection for thin client. Is this possible?

  Environment: vMWare vSphere 5, vMWare View 5. Version 8 of virtual equipment.

  Ah, I understand now. You probably want to look into something similar to the following: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/300141

  There may be another option, but I have not heard of him. I hope that someone will be able to shine more insight.

• Redirect USB driver...

  I searched the world over and can not find the 'redirect' USB driver I have users in virtual desktops in need of printers and portable scanners and can not find the redirct usb driver to install on both sides. I know it of simple, but makes me crazy...

  Thank you.

  The client stand alone is downloadable from the Web site.  If you are on a trial or own, you should see a download of the VMware View Client in your list of software.

• Redirect USB does not

  Hi guys,.

  IM using Wyse thin client 5000 with vWorkspace 8.6, deploy with the VMware virtualization host. I have a problem, USB is way to thin client VDI doesn't work, status on vWorkspace virtual USB like the photo above.

  

  Anyone who has seen this problem? Help me please.

  Sorry, my English not good! Thks!

  Hello

  Just to be clear, he never displayed in the vWorkspace USB hub when you use a machine ThinOS.

  It's for when you're with Windows (and possibly Linux) but not ThinOS.

  ThinOS redirected devices will appear in the VDI Device Manager.

  However, they will only do that if your WNOS.ini is configured to redirect the.

  Thank you, Andrew.

• Redirect USB error

  Good evening everyone,

  My brain always seems to be in holiday standby mode. We try to redirect some drive Flash USB devices in VMWare View connection. When clicking on the device to "Connect USB Device" drop down, we get an error message saying "an error occurred the USB connection to your desktop" there is nothing to work with in the VMWare View Client log on the physical machine. USB connections are enabled on the view connection server.

  So I am very confused...

  Thank you!

  This has proved to be the question:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2051801

  Workaround in the article was not 100% correct. I had to remove the Hub USB VMWare devices from the Device Manager and the drivers from the system32 location. Before running a repair on the view Agent 5.2.

  Then things seem to be much happier.

• The mouse is very choppy in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS after the upgrade to WS 10 hardware

  After upgrade from VMware Workstation 9.0.2 for 10.0.1, I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu 12.04 VM to virtual hardware version 10. Unfortunately, under the new virtual hardware, mouse went past very erratic autour. Install VMware Tools helped a little, but it is far away the butter gently and precisely point of material offered virtual version 9 (and continues to offer, after that I returned to a snapshot of the upgrade).

  Everyone knows about this problem? If so, is - that someone has found a workaround?

  Same weird mouse here problem...

  Host: Win7 Pro 64 bit comments: 7 Debian

  my resolution is to add to my vmx file

  usb.generic.allowHID = 'TRUE '.

  Mouse.vUSB.Enable = 'TRUE '.

  mouse.vusb.useBasicMouse = "FALSE".

  no breaks, no double pointers, capture/release automatic mouse works, front/back keys works

• Slow detection of Redirection USB PCOIP

  Running with the customers see 5.1 and zero LG and samsung.  Does anyone noticed a long delay after plugging the USB so that it appears in windows. It seems that it has something to do with the size of the stuck, for example a 16GB key takes 15 seconds, and a 32 GB stick takes about 40 seconds.  Thoughts?  Grabs newspapers to review, will post if I noticed anything bad.

  As mentioned keeggib a lot of what you see is Windows behavior and redirected standard of the USB device when performance limits. Windows will always read the table of allocation of entire file for readers FAT32 formatted when it is plugged, it means a demand by sector again to the device for the data (each bear a round trip of late due to the latency of the network). For NTFS, Windows reads it all, therefore faster loading time.

• View and redirect USB - Office at initialization outside the firewall

  I've been painting these forums looking for a solution to this problem.  I can connect to my Windows 7 Professional VM without problems via the secure SSL protocol, but after login on the USB tab at the top, it says "initialization of the office."

  Now I have seen and read a lot of posts here, and I am sure that this has something to do with my router/firewall physics.  I put a Client computer on the same local network (inside the firewall) and it loads and works very well, complete with USB Redirection so I know that the actual configuration is fine.  However, when I do the same thing from a computer outside my firewall, it gets stuck.

  After reading the other posts here, I forwarded your port 32111 to my server from view, and that did not solve the problem.  I even went as far as to put the server on DMZ and always the same result.

  So to summarize-, it works very well from a computer on the same local network, but when coming out from the local network, it does not.

  Ports, go to the server to display:

  80, 443, 4172, 32111.

  Could really use a few suggestions here.

  OK, so it seems that your environment from view behind a NAT. Tunneling is probably necessary here (see http://pubs.vmware.com/view-50/topic/com.vmware.view.installation.doc/GUID-0FC59EB4-45DA-4B3C-A611-F6B5597E9F0C.html), you must make sure it is on, then make sure your connection to the server can also obtain the MV Office on port TCP 32111.

• Help please: View 5 will not redirect USB HID (digital scale)

  Hi all

  We use View5 in a trial now and are very close purchase but we have 1 thing that prevents us from doing. I can't redirect a USB audio device. In this case, it's a digital scale used for UPS worldship. I tried this KB, and it has not worked for me so far. http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1011600

  Please see attached screenshots of registry and Device Manager where the VMware View Client is installed. Help, please.

  On your screenshot, it looks like you have set incorrect registry value. It should simply be VID_0B67 & PID_555E, but you have added an additional suffix.

• (Redirected) USB Flash Drive Boot (BiOS) - black screen/freeze/without end of loading - need help!

  Hello community Dell:

  I have been using your Inspiron desktop for work. Work requires me to a startup USB flash drive every morning to access work files and programs. I just press F12 and select the USB flash drive that brings me then in a workplace Ubuntu after entering my credentials - very easy.

  I recently bought the X 51 office because I wanted the game after work and it was intended to replace the Inspiron.

  X 51 issues (boot BiOS - secure boot off as with the Inspiron):

  UEFI = I get a black screen after the "loading...". ', it freezes the whole system

  Legacy = told me to restart the system and drive and the message repeats little matter what you press

  I tried USB different slots, ending different to access USB - nothing works!

  I tested another theory that would disable the GPU of the X 51, but this proved futile because the problems themselves was replicated. The GPU is the only unique component between two desktop computers. CPU is i3, i5 vs, vs 4g 8g, 1 TB vs. 2 TB, so I do not see these improvements of specification being the culprit. The X 51 has a different unique Alienware BiOS interface.

  The X 51 will be returned to Dell unless someone can some up with a solution - I would be eternally grateful, thank you.

• Can I paste a sessionstore.js from Firefox 27.0.1 (XP) in 28 Firefox (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS?

  I saved my wife since Firefox 27.0.1 tabs (XP) and installed Ubuntu 12.04 and 28 of Firefox. Now my life depends on my being able to restore its tabs. I am new to Ubuntu and I can't seem to find where sessionstore.js. I turned on the hidden files, nothing helps. I seem to be missing something.

  Sytem sessiorestore of note Firefox tends to be a bit fragile. Try to don't rely on it any more. At least make sure that all important pages are my favorites.

  Firefox sync can help, but it is also pretty bad subject. Firefox sync can improve Firefox 29 with new accounts of Firefox, but personally I would not depend on either. Firefox sync can also scramble Favorites, so make sure that you not only favorite, but also make a manually backup your bookmarks.

  • How do I set up Sync on my computer?
    • Synchronize your bookmarks Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

  The lifeline, the simplest method is to open the profile of the option in a running Firefox troubleshooting information page. Close Firefox and find the files to be copied.

  • Use the troubleshooting information page to help solve the problems of Firefox
