VMware View for Fedora?
Hello
I have installed and used the http://code.google.com/p/vmware-view-open-client/ on SLES 11 and RHEL 5.5; It works very well in both environments. I copied the same 64-bit RPM to a version of Fedora Core 4 x 64 system. The installation went without error. But when I try to run it, I get;
VMware-view: symbol of error search: vmware-view: undefine symbol: g_mkdir_with_parents
Any thoughts on how to solve this problem?
Thank you!

VMware view for office management
Our Organization is currently looking in the options of office management. Currently the staff to manage their own desktop computers (run as administrator) and assistance to support (painful, yes I agree). We seek to make progress on the path to a strategy of Fund managed with a product like the MS system center configuration Manager. However, we are also interested the concept of vmware view, since he would theoretically cut down on the need to support and boost security.
Does anyone have any success stories/reccomendations of implementation of vmware view as a desktop replacement in a common scenario?
I worked on a project where the customer has replaced desktop 1200 by VDI. Initially they BIG clients like the connection device, but now they also used will be to implement thin clients. It is a client of finance, so that they use Office products, Acrobat Reader and some banking applications.
Don't forget to assign points if this answer was helpful for you.

I'm trying to reuse some old computers (about 50), I started working on an image of Ubuntu 12.04 to deploy these computers and it seems to work great with the exception of the 1 question. When you disconnect / logout / stop the session, you are returned to the screen where you choose your desktop session (without log in again). Since I'm forcing the customer to see full screen as specifying the Office to connect to etc, we would like the client view logoff or restart. Is this possible?
Can you try to launch the client of the view with the option - once. View customer will leave when disconnect / logout / stop with this option remote desktop.

The user of VMware View desktop
Hello
When a user login to VMware View for the first time they are assigned to a complete virtual machine, but their AD user account is not added to the local administrator group.
Is there a way to automate this?
Also, is there a way to force the sysprep command to add this machine to a specific OU in active directory?
Thank you
CS
Hello.
Why they would be added to the local Administrators group?
I guess the best way to achieve this would be to add users to an ad group and add this group to the local administrator group.

I have operators who are still on my desktop 24/7/365. Assuming that there are no other problems, they get kicked out of their sessions from view after about 24 days. We use Thin Clients HP running ThinOS and VMware View Client. When I check the log for debugging on the Windows 7 VM, I see that when the connection is established, he wrote the following line:
2014-09-09 08:44:30, 807 DEBUG < MessageFrameWorkDispatch > [wsnm_desktop] sessionDisconnectTimer: set the timer to 2147480 seconds
After the expiration of the time limit, I get the following messages in the same newspaper and the client disconnects:
2014-09-09 08:30:08, 571 DEBUG < TimerService > [wsnm_desktop] sessionDisconnectTimer: triggered timer, session is disconnected.
2014-09-09 08:30:08, 571 DEBUG < TimerService > [wsnm_desktop] session::SessionDisconnectTimedOut: Disconnect message posted on the desktop
Where it becomes this timer of? The global setting on the display server is maxed at 9 999 999 minutes.
The host is EXSi 5.0.0
VMware View Server is 5.0.0 - 481677
See Agent 5.0.1
Operating system is Windows 7 Pro running on the virtual version 7 machine
It is a known problem that has been fixed in 5.3.2 view - the global time-out in minutes is converted to a time in milliseconds, which then overflows a 32-bit counter. See Overview of VMware View Release Notes
A desktop session is timeout and be disconnected after about 24 days, 20 hours and 31 minutes, even if the Session time-out setting has been set to a higher value.

I try to get a USB Smart Card Reader * to work on related under VMware View 5.1 clones
* not as an authentication device, just like a transmission of smart card reader
Not tried:
1 activated pass through card reader in the registry for the VMware view client
2. active "allow redirection of card reader" in the policy active directory
3. customer connected to view, selected USB drive list, connected to the customer
After that, the card reader will appear with a "generic smart card", but it does not actually work.
We executed the diagnosis of the smart card and he pointed out that the drivers are ok and windows service is ok, but the map can not be found.
PS: When we tried first, about 2 weeks ago it worked, but it has suddenly stopped working. (Needless to say that the virtual machines and the Clients were restarted several times).
Check that you have not installed the "PCoIP smart card Redirection" option during the installation of the agent. If it is present, it will redirect calls made RDP client smart card. Because you use a 'local' to the desktop USB drive, you don't want to do.

Two monitors configured using PCoIP does not cover both monitors for VMware View
Occasionally, I've experienced the symptoms described in KB1027899, when usually the first time of connection for the day that I select multiscreen and the screen is divided in the Middle the 2 monitors using PCoIP. I end up disconnecting and reconnecting to the virtual machine a few times, which is a valid solution, but I'm still curious about why this is happening.
I am running VMware View 5.0.0 build-481677, on a Wyse R90L with Windows XP Embedded, I use VMware View Client 5.0.0 build 481677 and VMWare View agent on a box of Windows 7 5.0.0 build 481677. We lack vCenter and ESXi 5.0.0 in all areas as well.
According to the article, this happens because there is not enough video memory configured for the virtual computer. The problem I have is that if I force the pool offices use PCoIP and 128 MB of video memory, I can't RDP to the workstation as the Protocol is locked, I need to still be able to do. I tried manually increase the memory video, but view reconfigures to match the settings of the pool.
Is there a way to increase the video memory without changing the required logon Protocol? Or is there a fix in a different way to this question?
Thanks a lot guys.
Joe
Have you tried to change the configuration video pool to be 2 monitors with 2560 x # instead of the default resolution to see if that solves the problem?

Ports and Destination for VMware View Client
Hi all
I'm looking for a quick bit of help if possible please...
Environment: VMware View 4.5
Question / Info needed:
Two companies having a bond of trust between data transfer etc. and resources share. We need access to a site through their firewall in the bond of trust to connect to the VMware View VDI Office. Customers using VMware View Client.
The question is, if we get the site to enable port 443 to our broker connection I assume this will not be enough? It must be possible to:
443 to connection broker
32111 (redirect USB) to?
9427 (multimedia redirection) to?
4172 (PCoIP) to?
3389 (RDP if used) to?
This may all sound a bit novicy but I need to be 100% before you go test.
Thanks in advance.
So using the brokers of the connection in direct mode without any security server. I think that it would look like this.
443 to connection broker
32111 VDI Desktop
9427 multimedia redirection) to?
4172 VDI Desktop
3389 VDI Desktop

VMware has a guide of best practices for backup of VMware View &; DR?
How to properly protect a server with VMware View VMware vSphere running? Our RPO/RTO is ideally < 2 hrs?
We have 100 customers and we use a roaming profile. TIA
Hello
Haven't seen specific guides. There are a few examples of 3rd party that might give you some ideas. VCenter Heartbeat also supports the component View Composer.
Little old (2009), but interesting to read:
Maybe the next version of view could address this? If you use roaming profiles, and then you just a way to replicate users DR and point to the DR View Pool, failover would take only a DNS change. Dealing with linked clones and persistent readers makes many tricker.
I would consider the XP VM to throw objects, is the user customization, you need to reproduce for them in DR.

You are looking for advice or suggestions: Vmware View 4 lab on workstation 7.
Hi guys,.
I want to build a new laboratory virtualized on a new desktop that I ordered. I especially want to us to do tests and the growth of knowledge on Vmware View. I have a desktop HP on order with an i7-930 processor and 16 GB of RAM. I also have a 7 of my cert VCP 4 Workstation license.
I already know how build a virtualized ESX environment and allow the MV nested within this environment. My lesson plans are to build two ESX 4 virtual machines, a VM vCenter, a virtual shared storage as a storage device and a server VMware View connection. I think there should be enough resources on this box to have a work environment (although maybe slow). I plan only to have two virtual desktops (XP). I don't need virtual machines to do something more than it is, run and be able to communicate with them with PCoIP XP.
I was hoping someone else might have already tried this and had no additional details. If this isn't the case, I'd love to hear any suggestions. I intend to document this lab and I'll be happy to share this document with everyone when I'm done...
Best regards
Rick
I have implemented this on a laptop several times. Laptops have 8 GB of memory and it was barely enough to make it usable. ; Your 16 GB of system memory and faster CPU will give you much more room to breathe
Tip: I cut about 20% of the CPU usage on the ESX host nested running under Workstation 7 on Dell D830 computers laptops with processors T7250 in manually choosing the type of VT for ESX hosts nested rather than leave the setting at the default of Automatic.
Also, if it is not necessary to VMotion, you could get a super-quick card Flash or SSD and point that flash all the temp, swap files and VSWP files. SSD. Someone has recently published an article on the difference in speed - Google and you will see what kind of speed increase you could get out your configuration if you are willing to spend that kind of money for quick storage.
