We are upgrading Horizon 7.0.0 to 7.0.3 - Is there an Access Point Upgrade?
It's an appliance we deployed, I'm guessing the appliance is the same in 7.0.0 as in 7.0.3
Just wondering what steps are needed concerning the "upgrade" of Access Points, or if none are needed.
Hello everybody!
I was faced with a strange behaviour of VMware Edge Gateway during configuring Load Balancing service.
It's not balancing more than one host behind the many-to-one NAT. For example, I have two hosts (192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3) that are NATed to Public IP 10.10.10.10 and I have Edge GW with configured LB service with Public vIP 20.20.20.20 that balancing to 192.168.10.2 and 192.168.10.3.
It works fine when only one host 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.3 trying to reach 20.20.20.20, but when 192.168.1.2 have established connection to 20.20.20.20, 192.168.1.3 will get connection time out.
On external interface of EdgeGW I can see packets from both hosts but on internal only from one at the moment of time. It seems that EdgeGW has a NAT problem when it get requests from multiple hosts behind one NAT.
I already checked network transport with Cisco Support engineer and now I have a discuss with VMware support engineer, but may be community can help me
Does anyone have something strange issue?
Thanks in advance for any information!
p.s. Changing LB method doesn't affect on this issue.

Hi,
Apologies if I am asking incorrectly or in the wrong place, I am new to this community.
I have a VRA 7.1 installation and I am trying to submit request via the REST API, which is working.
I pull down the template JSON and then post it again and get a successful submition.
Guide here: http://www.vmtocloud.com/how-to-script-a-vrealize-automation-7-rest-api-request/
However I wish to request multiple instance in a single deployment and can't see where to edit the JSON.
There is an entry that has "_leaseDays":1,"_number_of_instances":1}.
If I increase "_number_of_instances" to get multiple deployment not multiple instances in a deployment as I expected.
After contacting VMware this is "expected" behavior.
Does anyone know how I can request multiple instances in a single deployment via RESTAPI request?
I'm starting to plan my 6.0 to 6.5 upgrade and was wondering if the permission problems with the web client have been solved? Since the Windows client is no longer an option, I really hope the web client in 6.5 works properly with permissions now.
Specially I have the issues in these threads:

We want to stand up a Horizon with view server in our development area. I'm trying to download and install, but I have a question. I thought that this software was a hypervisor that sits on bare metal, but the installer is an .exe file that says it runs only on Windows server. Can someone help? thx.
How do tablet or ipad users get an on-screen keyboard when they connect through the web into Horizon 7?
If you connect, and run an app, like say Wordpad, the ipad doesn't pop up the keyboard on the device (because you are inside the RDS Host running Wordpad.)
how do you guys overcome this shortfall?

Hello,
I have a question in regards to updating the VMTools on our VMs. We have upgraded to vCenter 6.0 currently and all the VMs have the upgrade available to them. However, I have not done it cause our DR Site is still running esxi 5.5 and vCenter 5.5. If I upgrade to the latest VMTools will this cause issues if we need to bring up our DR Site? I know I need to keep the VM Hardware at the lower Compatibility but wasn't sure on the vmware tools.
Thanks

Hello,
After vCD upgrade to 8.20 in our lab environment I can't access the new Tenant Portal.
"Manage Firewall..." option direct to file not found page.
"File not found. Firefox can't find the file at https://vcloud.lab.com/api/tenant/dfw/75fb0702-36f1-4e7a-8a2f-187fdeb133a5?org=System#sessionid:02cea0f4436f4e5083f3ac8dd09113a8"
I have added necessary rights to vCD according to http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2149016
Hi,
Wondering if someone can help? We recently added 2 nodes to our Log Insight 4.0 cluster, going from 3 to 5 nodes, and expanded disks on the initial nodes so they all matched. All nodes show green and connected however we are having problems logging in to the cluster VIP using AD accounts which worked fine before all this. Logging into the individual appliance seems OK, maybe a bit slower. I paused the nodes one by one which moved the VIP around with no change. Presently the Master and VIP roles are on the same appliance. Logging in with local default admin is fine via the VIP.
If there is anything I can look into or more info I can provide, let me know?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I have a 5.5 VM running Server 2008 R2 with Terminal Services
I can pass through an AMD GPU but the VM does offload video rendering to the GPU
Do I need to use a product like Horizon first to make this work ? (or a GRID GPU)
Also, we are prepared to upgrade to Windows Server 2016 and ESXi 6.5 if necessary

I have a VM Lab that i use for SCCM testing and learning. Looking at the folder size on the host i am getting 150GB.
Looking inside a VM my disk size is 139 GB with 40Gb free space.
My vm's are on the 256 ssd disk and i am running out of space. Is there any way to resolve the size issue?
Thank you.
I have an environment with 2 VMs on a single host. A DB server and an app server. We had memory reservations set on the VMs. It was 255GB on the app server and 50GB on the DB server. I'm not sure where those numbers came from. The host itself has 512GB. We had an issue where we saw ballooning on the DB server so, VMware recommended getting rid of the reservations. I went into VC and removed the reservations on both VMs but the ballooning didn't stop.
While VC shows no reservation on these VMs, if I connect directly to the host, it still shows a reservation and won't let me get rid of it.
Any ideas?
We have Windows 10 1607 as golden Image and use AppVolumes 2.12. Writable volumes are disabled. We use UEM for user settings synchronisation. Whith no AppStacks attached, we have a logon time of about 30-40 seconds. After we applied one or two appstacks, the logon time will grow up to about 1 minute. In the svservice.log file i can see e delay of several seconds.
Why do we have such a delay?
In this two appstacks i have modified for thesting the snapvol.cfg file and disabled the recursive registry. But that not really helped us in our environment.
What can i do to perform the logon? What is causing the slow logon?
Thx

Hey everyone,
We were running Appvolumes 2.10 and logins were 30+ seconds depending on the number of stacks assigned to a user. In some cases (Visio as an Appstack), logon times would shoot to in excess of a minute. We then upgraded to 2.11 as part of a Horizon 7 rollout (with vSphere 6 U2) and the logon times increased! Ouch! All areas of the build (the core is very vanilla) were reviewed alongside the hosts, storage, network and DB, but with no obvious problem areas. Each time this was raised with VMware, it was acknowledged that certain parameters that were applicable in 2.10 were no longer acknowledged in 2.11 and as there were product limitations for 2.11, wait until 2.12 and there will be vast improvements!
Well, like others in the forum, during testing of Appvolumes 2.12, we are still seeing yet further slow down of logins!
We managed to improve the speed by dropping SSL, (setting to use port 80 from agent to manager), but the overall result is that logins are no better than where we stood before.
Interesting and unsurprisingly, stopping the svservice (AppVolumes) brings us back to circa 15 sec logins. However, just running the service even with no user stacks assigned adds about 10seconds to a typical logon so there seems to be an effective heavy penalty for it to merely check for user assignments, let alone attaching anything.
Im going to start investigating hardcoding requests to specific domain controllers in preference to using the domain fqdn in the configuration to see if that changes anything too. Will report back.
If anyone else has any similar experience or problems, please let me know as for us, 2.12 was considered to be the last roll of the dice for Appvolumes in preference to a rivals offering that seems capable of cutting our current logon times in half which for a userbase of 1000 multiplied by 15 seconds is the equivalent of 250minutes of lost productivity each time all users log on!
Thanks

Im trying to deploy a new machine SSL with VCenter 6.5 from a public CA. Ive spent 3 days with multiple failures. This being the latest. Ive followed every vmware instructional video and guides for 5.5 and 6.0 but we cannot deploy a Public CA SSL cert so far. it gets to 10% and kicks an error message. Ive tried every variation of certs. We get issued a CA-Bundle, and p7b and a crt file. We cannot figure out what vcenter certificate manager is wanting from these certs. Ha any one else faced this issue?
