• Customizing the portal of VMWare View 5 Page

  HELO all,.

  We test Vmware view 5 for an implementation of the medim scale possible. We have all the settings and it works fine. There is one thing that the sentence is me: the Portal Page. Normally, the portal page tells you that you must install the client and it redirects you to the Vmware View client download page. I managed to find documentation that tells you how to customize and I had to show him a few links that will download the client to our own server. I have attached a screenshot with where I am now (vmwareviewcurrentportal.jpg) right; What is the best... but watch some training videos, I noticed that, after the trainer install Vmware View connection to the Portal Services looks diferent (in a better way). I've attached screenshots of what its like (VmwareViewDesiredPortal.JPG) looks like w.

  Essentially: it has radio buttons in the software selection and a download button. After choosing your Customer Portal redirects you to a page (VmwareViewDesiredPortalInstructions.JPG) of the instructions.

  -I know that it is a kind of model because the images to help guide are stored in C:\Program VMware View\Server\broker\webapps\ROOT\portlets\client\images on the Vmware View connection server.

  The question is: how setup/activate this portal? Any help would be greatly apreciated.

  Thank you

  Fear not, we stayed at a compatible screen for all types of customers. I'm sorry.

• Customer light HP t5325 doesn't work don't not with VMware View 5

  Hello

  I recently got a slim Pro HP t5325 customer for testing with VMware view 5. I ve the thin client to the latest firmware update:

  http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en & cc = us & prodTypeId = 12454 & prodSeriesId = 4063703 & prodNameId = 4063704 & swEnvOID = 4030 & swLang = 13 & mode = 2 & taskId = 135 & swItem = vc-99080-1)

  who has the view 4.6 customer and according to the VMware compatibility list:

  http://www.VMware.com/resources/compatibility/PDF/vi_view_guide.PDF

  It should work with view 5. But when I try to launch the client and connect to your desktop from view, he asks just a super quick message (which I don't see) and then it brands the "active" session, but it doesn't open anything . View 5 Client on my laptop works very well and I m able to access the same desktop VM.

  My current setup is:

  • vCenter server 5
  • ESXi5
  • VMware View 5

  What Miss me? Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I had the same problem this week. He is not related to view 5, same problem exists also with 4.6.

  The problem seems to be that when you try to open the connection, the client calls a /usr/bin/view_wrapper.sh script and this script does NOT run with user privileges? However, if you switch to admin and then open the connection this script works well. You can test it by opening the X terminal in the thin client, then the su user and try to run the script manually /usr/bin/view_wrapper.sh start at 0 and you will get a prompt for sudo.

  I tried to add the useraccount 'user' in/etc/sudoers and allow that user rights sudo for view_client and view_wrapper.sh programs. Did not help

  If you add the user 'user' to the root group, connection opens fine but then you let the open thin client for the standard user to mess with.

  Quite a bug in the software? They don't do any test before releasing these?

• VMware View - Only CD customer?

  Hello

  We believe any deployment of a few VMware View customers (first time user of VDI so keep the newb questions).  Instead of thin clients, we plan to reuse some desktop computers more aged (they were strong enough to run Vista).  I read somewhere that there is Linux available customer base that does not require installation (their boot off CD); Anyone know what we call them?

  Also later, we will execute on old computers to office if anyone has a recommendation on the type of computer Thinclient to go?  (i.e.: brand / model).

  Thank you and Bravo!

  Hello

  You can very easily create your own client. Use a distribution like Knoppix or Suse Studio allows you to create a bootable cd. Then, you can implement the View Open Client:

• ThinPro with VMware View USB Redirection

  Hi all:

  I'm trying to configure my workstation (t620 ThinPro 5.1 running) to start required services necessary for USB with VMware View forwarding at startup.  I tried to add the command to /etc/rc.local and created my own init.d script, but none of these options automatically launch services.  Run manually /etc/rc.local and the custom init.d script launches the services successfully.

  Has someone managed to get the necessary USB redirection services running at the start?  Any guidance is appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Solved my problem... changed under USB Manager Remote Protocol of VMware View.  Updated this setting caused VMware services to run at startup.

• 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.

• VMware View 6.1 Zero-Client disconnect

  We have recently updated our platform VDI of VMWare View 6.1 using vSphere 6.0 and Nvidia vGPU (K1 grid). (HP T310 ZeroClient 4.7.1)

  Some of our users complain disconnects, some users have this error more than others.

  The mouse stops and a disconnect after 30 seconds.

  VMware customer Horizon for Linux Release Notes

• Problems with the module supplier of personalized identification information and overview of VMware View Client working together

  I have a Horizon of VMware View client that connects me HVD Windows 7. So when I give view client Vmware Horizon my credentials, it auto logs me. I also created a custom credential provider that works on Windows 7 PC. When I install the custom in the HVD credentials provider, it works if I am already connected to HVD and I simulate CTRL + ALT + DELETE. Can I use my credential provider to "unlock" in. However, if I disconnect of HVD and try to connect using VMware Horizon View client to connect to Windows 7 of HVD, it gets stuck on the screen of the tile. I see the VMware SSO user tile but nothing happens when I click it. Then, I use my provider of customized credentials to connect. I expect to bypass my ISP credentials on the first connection and self as before.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Thanks for your help.

  OK, I did some more troubleshooting and discovered that it was a problem with auto connection set to TRUE on my side of custom credentials provider (I pbAutoLogonWithDefault to TRUE). Since I still like it TRUE, I had originally set it to FALSE and then change for REAL once my credential provider was used.

  Thank you!

• VMWare View Horizon and vCenter assessment

  Hello

  I'm going to show a customer what Horizon of VMWare View. They currently use an ESXi host 5.5 with vCenter evaluation license. Is it possible to use the view with vCenter assessment? The reason I ask is that I get the following error: "Error vCenter entry."

  Thank you

  Which version to use for your vmware view? I guess you try to add vcenter in sight and you get the error message. You must add using domain\admin account.

  Also check that you have the necessary permissions.

• Automatic connection to the server at startup for VMware View Client 2.2 Horizon?

  In iterations (5.x), there was simply an option in "always connect to this server on startup". 

  
  

  In test 2.2.0 I don't see that option anywhere. I have also yet to find any switch that I can add to enable this feature.  Does anyone know if this is even possible?

  
  

  Thank you

  You can create a custom shortcut that bypasses the user selects server connection: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Horizon view Client\vmware - view.exe ' desktopProtocol - desktopLayout - fullscreen PCOIP - serverURL 'view.connection.server.url' logInAsCurrentUser - false

• VMware View - provisioning question of desktop computers

  I'm new to VMware View and just build a my QA cluster environment.  I have installed/configured view administrator on a dedicated virtual machine and installed/configured on my server vCenter composer.  I created a gold statue (called, joined the domain, configured custom parameters, view agent installed) and converted to a model. Then, I created a pool on my server administrator to view and added 10 desktop computers.  They have all implemented successfully, however, they all have the same computer name (same name, I named the machine of the gold statue).  The machines that appear in VMware show the naming convention that I created, but the internal computer name is the same for all. I guess that the DNS name.  also, I can have these machines added to the announcement through this process or do they need to be predefined?

  Customization = None seems to be the reason. When we customize him clone all the related machine settings are kept from the model VM, which are the name of the Machine, machine SID, the work/domain group settings, etc. That's why you see Office all the same names as those given to the model. You can create a customization specification in the CR. Instructions to create a file of customiztion specifications in vCenter can be found at:

  Use this technique of customization when you create the pool. Hope that helps.

• Can VMware View - I connect with Microsoft RDP?

  Hello world

  Can I connect via the Microsoft's RDP client Vmware View environment? No view, just Microsoft RDP client. I have a thin client model and just support Microsoft RDP Protocol. I want to connect environment seen through this customer.

  Thank you.

  You MUST have a client of VMware view. Then you can connect through it to view desktop using PCoIP or RDP Protocol.

  You will be able to connect to the desktop using RDP display if your thin client is located in the same subnet (and if RDP is enabled on the desktop to view server and you know its ip address) but would not use vmware view (if you want to connect directly to your desktop from RDP Why would you need to notice), which would also directly access to a machine as you access all the other Windows VM.

  And its always advisable to disable direct RDP on view desktops.

• VMware View Agent 5.2.0 PCoIP over WAN fails

  Recently, I did an upgrade on VMware View VMware view horizon 5.2 4.6 square.

  After the upgrade the 4.6.0 view agent in virtual machines of my parents to view agent 5.2.0 and rebuild the office pools, external PCoIP does not work. Can I open a session in the 5.2 Client view, see the list of office pools, select a pool, the desk at work close and try to open remotely. After 1 second, this error appears:

  Error: Overview of VMware View Client: The connection to the remote computer has ended.

  What does not work:

  • External/WAN via PCoIP for workstations with the view Agent 5.2.0

  What does not work:

  • Internal/LAN via PCoIP for workstations with the view Agent 5.2.0
  • Internal/LAN via RDP for workstations with the view Agent 5.2.0
  • External/WAN via RDP for workstations with the view Agent 5.2.0
  • External/WAN via PCoIP for workstations with the Agent View 5.1.3 or lower (tested up to 4.6.0 Agent view)

  I even tried to build a new pool of desktop Windows 7 in a new OU in the active without optimizations VDI directory or group policy. I tried with and without the firewall Windows is activated. In any case, this new office pool works externally via any Agent from view but the view Agent 5.2.0.

  Is it the 5.2.0 Agent view have the same firewall/port that the Agent View 5.1.3 requirements? What else can I test or try to get external PCoIP for desktop computers to work with the view Agent 5.2.0?

  Finally, we discovered the problem / solution. We on a security apparatus of Palo Alto Networks that blocked traffic PCoIP 5.2.0 but not PCoIP 5.1.3 traffic.

  According to a backline Vmware engineer:

  "A change was made to the ephemeral TLS connection that is used to establish trust and to negotiate parameters for subsequent UDP traffic network. This change allows the customer to use their own certificate for TLS server for this connection. For more details of what happens during the installation of PCoIP, and how this changed view 5.2, see KB 1038762. »

  It seems that Palo Alto Networks did not like this change. When we removed our Palo Alto of WAN device, PCoIP 5.2.0 connections could be created. We finally had create a rule to allow the category: private-ip-addresses and URL: pcoip - by default-sni. Once this change has been made, connections WAN PCoIP 5.2.0 started working.
