• W7 64 bit VMWare View client do not connect with VDI

  Hi guys, I installed the x 64 client vmware view on a W7, and I'm not trying to connect to a VDI from him. When I try to open the connection with the view server I have the following error

  "vmware client view server returned an invalid or unrecognized response".

  I took a quick glance to vmware \AppData\Local\VMware\VDM\log files and I saw the following error codes

  2012-12-27 09:43:58, 936 DEBUG < MessageFrameWorkDispatch > [wswc_http] ErrorCode WININET is 12152

  Anyone know why this error occurs for the 64-bit client?

  Thanks in advance

• VMware View 4.6 upgrade question

  Currently I have VMware View 4.5 installed.  Is it possible to simply upgrade to 4.6 Security brokers to test PCoIP connections through a broker?  Or the agent, composer and Director of view needs to be upgraded as well?

  Non - gateway PCoIP functionality requires that the Security Server and the login server is upgraded to 4.6. See http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-14974

  Select this option.

• vCD 8 upgrade path

  Hi all

  Can upgrade you form vCD 5.5 directly to vCD8.0 or are you to go first to 5.6.4?  I can't find anything in the notes version or installation & Upgrade guide.

  Dave

  OK - I answered my own question with the Matrices of the interoperability of VMware products.  I don't know if the "Upgrade Path" option is new, but I don't remember having seen it before.  In any case, the vCD 8.0 upgrade is supported from version 5.5.4 and 5.6.4.

• 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

• DST and vmware view = weird questions

  This is the 3rd time that when the time comes or goes we get questions of kind of weird in our very frequent floating pools, VMs stuck in starting up, wait for connection etc.

  If you look at the log below you will see that the virtual machine has been one hour before, and then she came back at the right time.

  I was on the phone with VMware for 5 hours Tuesday last with this same problem.  I ended up solving the problem without their help.  You must initialize your model, let the time updated, shut it down, take a new snapshot and recompose your pool.

• Map: a USB in VMware View Client

  Hello

  I am new to VMware and I want to use a feature. A physical machine, I connect to a virtual with VMware View Client skyline. I want to map (or redirect, or another alternative definition), a physical USB of my physical PC into virtual.

  How can I handle this?

  In Vmware View client, I in the upper part, a tab with USB connection, and it says "USB redirection is not available.

  Director of VMware View, group policies and settings are configured to allow the USB connection. Nevertheless, it doesen't work. physical USB to the PC, does not appear in the Virtual PC.

  What can we do?

  Thank you

  those install newspapers look to be on the client machine, rather than agent - so that they don't help us here.

  the problem is clearly that the part is not happy - you reason with the log lines, that you highlight. and, since the Device Manager, it looks like it is unhappy with several of the 'virtual' pilots he tried to install it.

  Was it a win7 'clean' installation of comments, on which you have installed the Agent discovered - or he previously had an agent installed that you upgrade?

  the problem is certainly part, and you should not see the triangles of signs in Device Manager. Maybe you can try to remove the agent and re install.

  see you soon

• How to view upgrade 4.6 to 5.2

  Hello

  I want to improve my VMware View VMware view Horizon 5.2 4.6.0 environment.

  My vCenter Server (including View Composer), the connection mode and the Security Server run Windows Server 2003 R2 32 bit.

  Due to the requirements of view OS 5.2 I install new Server 2008 R2 VMs for vCenter, see Security Server and connecting to the server.

  My version of vCenter is 4.0 U4

  I have pools with computers office linked Clone and persistent drives, this is the reason why I want to upgrade instead of creating a new environment and migrate the pools with Golden Master.

  The rest of my upgrade procedure:

  Install new virtual machines View (view CS and SS) 5.2 and connect these server in the environment of 4.6 view.

  The login server must replicate all the information.

  Delete the view 4.6 CS - and SS-server.

  Upgrade to vCenter Server (install Server 2008 R2-> import 4.0 vCenter Server database and database of the composer)

  This procedure is possible?

  If not, what is the best way?

  Thanks in advance.

  Best regards

  
  

  Georg
  

  It is advisable to have all servers in a group replicated to the same version.   That being said I'd install Server 2008 in the group with the 4.6 install, allow replication to occur, remove the old servers, and then you spend the 2008 4.6 install 5.2.    I also assume that you will upgrade composer as part of the upgrade of the view so that you can test the commissioning and then move the databases to the new vCenter 2008?

• 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.

• VMWare View 5.1: It can work through vCenter 4.1?

  If my company being upgraded our environment from 4.1 to 5.1. We currently have 2 (1-1 virtual physical) 4.1 vcenters and a 5.1 vcenter. If we improve to view 5.1 it still will normally work on a vcenter 4.1 or we will have to migrate to the vcenter 5.1 so that it can run successfully?

  VMware View 5.1 is fully supported when running against a 4.1 infrastructure, but there are some disadvantages. be limited to a size of cluster of 8 guests, if you need more hosts in a cluster you have to use the 5.1 vCenter

• Client VMware View Android: how hide the status bar at the top

  Hi all

  I'm testing the VMware View Client for Android. A question that bothers me is the status bar I am displayed at the top of the screen. I mean the bar that displays the Logo of VMware View and several icons for the control settings.

  Is possible to hide this bar? I have not found a switch in settings or in the official manual. The thing is: I think that it should be possible somehow, as a video YouTube of VMware shows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85uJqkn-UV4

  I'll be grateful for any comments...

  air flow

  After upgrading the client to view to the last version(>2.0), he supports the mode full screen. You can activate it via clicking on the button full screen in the menu of the dock bar.

• VMware View is over-equipped?

  Hello!

  Having a small company of VMware View seems MUCH too complicated and overengineered. Can this be true?

  I mean that the alternative is a pWindows machine to connect to a machine vWindows with mstsc.exe. I know it is not completely the same, but it is also very long path between a solution that works out-of-the-box and VMware View with much installation of the client OS, directory servers, see security, view connection server, server transfer from view, the slim viewers, tool view composer and General everything that is necessary to get this working.

  And then it only works for Windows desktop computers. Using something like the console in vSphere client redirection is able to display all the OS' are - even Android!

  (Ok! Forcing my employees to use for their daily work vSphere client would proberbly many resignations ;-)) but I is possible!

  Am I missing something here? I mean VMware-view-evaluators - Guide.pdf is 152 pages (!) - long 'mstsc.exe remoteserver' is just... a line?

  Is there a simple solution for this. It's like building a spaceship to get a Coke to the nearest 7-11. It's 'just' a shutoff Holy crap! :-)

  Best regards

  Don't forget when you are dealing with 10-50 VM that is not for to be honest.

  You see a company of 10 or 20 depending on what lines you have you can find a service provider where they can provide you with da (computer desktop as a Service) and which would reduce as much cost

  I did a small deployment without costly storage and costly servers and the system worked well.

  Then give the user a Zero-Client and boom!

• Automation of VMWare View with PCOIP 5.0

  Hello

  I am trying to automate the execution of applications in VMWare View Client (PCOIP). However, I'm stuck with sending the keys to applications. I tried in vain on the keyboard to screen, SendKeys, keyboard hook to this effect. I also read VIX API documentation but I don't think that it works for me because I don't have administrator rights. Please notify.

  Kind regards

  Amjad Ali

  I'm not sure I understand the question either, but I had some success using AutoIT (http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/) for automation in the past. Using this, you can compile a script as an executable to run in the virtual machine.

  If you do not have rights admin on the virtual machine, you can still use the Run value in the registry for the current user to start an application when you connect. Have you tried to put the path to the executable file that you are trying to launch in the HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run?

  You might be able to use both of these ideas and set the path to an AutoIT executable in the HKCU Run key to get the automation level you are looking for.
