Hi All,

 

This is random but for some reason google chrome 80.x and above seems to not work.

Always get an ohhh snap from chrome

79.x and below works fine ?

 

Note the above is when doing an app capture when installing direct on the machine without appvol works fine.

 

Any idea as to why this maybe ?

 

Appvolumes 2.x and 4.0

Hello All,

I'm working on WFH solution for one of the customer with WS1(On-Prem).

Requirement is to allow specified website only (Both internet & intranet) with only one browser (Prefer chrome).

Rest other browser should be blocked completely. Devices(Windows 10 Pro) includes both COD & BYOD.

 

Can anyone shed some light on achieving this.

 

Thanks

No sound out/ input with VMare Audio Tap devices on physical View Agents

$

Dear all,

 

I'm facing an interesting audio problem with Horizon View on physical agents. Due to COVID-19 we deployed Horizon View at different customers, partially on physical desktops. When using the VMware Virtual Audio (devTap) and VMware Virtual Microphone devices für audio out- and input, the user has not sound in- and output at his desktop. When selecting the correct devices, the user has sound in- and output on the physical desktop, but poor quality when using the same desktop using Horizon View. My guess: When using other devices than the VMware devices, RTAV is not used.

 

Any hints on how to deal with this? Changing the devices remote is not possible because the user only sees a "Remote Audio Device".

Export used Portgroup/VMs/User, reimport Portgroup/VMs/User, after update/create new PG/User

Following this thread Create vLans in personal folders with specific permission/role .

 

I need to export current network configuration of each VMs of each user, in a group. Disconnect VMs of their networks, to be able to reproduce existing or create new PGs. Then run an import .csv (or else ?) to reconfigure VMs with their own networks. These are not production VMs and they can lose a few minutes their network connection.

 

"Reproduced existing" PGs will have the same name/VLanID.

 

Thanks.(Had a look around this topic in communities.vmware.com but didn't find with the same needs)

Horizon 5.4.0 mouse scrolling issues

$
0
0

Hi,

 

Installed Horizon Client 5.4.0 yesterday and noticed that my mouse scrolling wheel was not working as it should be. It would scroll a few lines and then just stop. It took me a while but then I noticed that scrolling worked fine as long as I moved the mouse. Once I stopped moving the mouse, scrolling wouldn't work anymore (scrolling with arrow keys still works, so it's not a performance issue).

 

I just reverted to Horizon Client 5.3.0 and mouse scrolling works fine again now.

 

Don't know if anyone else is having this issue?

 

Our setup:

Horizon 7.9

VDI based on Windows Server 2019

Connection tested via UAG 3.6 (can't test on internal network at the moment...)

Horizon Client 5.4.0 for Windows

 

Regards

Michiel.


[vRA 7.6] Creating virtual SCSI controllers and virtual disks, and specifying SPBM for CloneWorkflow blueprints

$
0
0

I have a need to add virtual SCSI controllers and virtual disks to those controllers at time of deployment for CloneWorkflow based blueprints and being able to specify the SPBM (Storage Policy Based Management) to those virtual disks.

 

While doing my research I noticed that some of our blueprints where virtual disks were added would have "machine.properties" properties like so:

 

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.DeviceID : SCSI (0:0)

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.ExternalID : <id>

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.IsClone : true

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.IsFixed : False

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Label : Hard disk 1

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Name : Hard disk 1

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Size : 100

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Storage : <storage name>

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Storage.Cluster.ExternalReferenceId : <storage id>

      VirtualMachine.Disk0.Storage.Cluster.Name : <name of storage>

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.DeviceID : SCSI (0:1)

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.ExternalID : <id>

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.IsClone : false

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.IsFixed : False

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Label : Hard disk 2

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Letter : /dev/sdb

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Name : Hard disk 2

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Size : 2

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Storage : <storage name>

      VirtualMachine.Disk1.Storage.Cluster.ExternalReferenceId : <storage id>

 

The blueprint editor does not allow you to specify the virtual SCSI controller, hence all additional virtual disks are bound the the first/default controller in the template.

 

(1) Is it possible to change the value of "VirtualMachine.DiskN.DeviceID" to specify a virtual SCSI controller other than zero, e.g. (1:0), and have that controller created automatically? Obviously there would need to be additional properties to specify the type of controller, etc.

 

(2) If yes then what was the approach? Was it a matter of adding the properties to the blueprint? Part of the reason for asking is that the documentation on this family of properties (Custom Properties V) doesn't mention "VirtualMachine.DiskN.DeviceID". Is there another source of information for "VirtualMachine.DiskN.DeviceID"?

 

(3) Is there an easy/more direct way of specifying the vSphere SPBM policy or is custom coding the only solution? The "VirtualMachine.DiskN.Storage*" properties (Custom Properties V) refer to vRA storage reservation policies not vSphere SPBM.

 

(4) Also, the documentation doesn't explain "VirtualMachine.DiskN.Size" other than as a reference for the explanation of "VirtualMachine.Admin.TotalDiskUsage". Any other sources of information for this property?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Printing barcode artefacts

Hello to all....

 

we just started using Horizon and now we facing a strange problem. While users are at home an using a Printer and printing something different as text, like a barcode, they get artefacts on the barcode so badly they could not been scanned. I  attached an example.

 

While i tested it locally not getting artefacts users who are connected from outside the network are getting these. What could this be?

 

We are using Horizon 7.11.0 Build 15231595 and Client 5.3.0 Build 15208953: OS is Windows 10 1909 on both sides.

Get-VM -Tag not working in VMware vSphere 6.7

Hello all

 

In VMware vSphere 6.0 with PowerCLI version 11.2.0 we used Get-VM -Tag 'Test' to list

VM with tag with value Test. After upgrade to VMware vSphere 6.7 this stopped working.

 

Is there a solution for that?

 

Regards

Hideyori

While invoking a tag command from a remote server ( Using PowerCLI 11.x installed in remote server) We get below issue in our HCI environment and NOT in Vblock.

 

"Get-Tag  vSphere single sign-on failed for connection

Future operations which require single sign-on on this

connection will fail. The underlying cause was: The requested operation cannot be completed. The computer must be

trusted for delegation and the current user account must be configured to allow delegation."

 

Please advice how to address this issue, we tried enabling CredSSP and it did NOT resolve our issue. Any help will be appreciated.Thanks

2x Display increases login time Windows 10 1909

$

Has anyone fully implemented Windows 10 1909 on Horizon 7.11. Currently my Clearcubes (Zeroclient) are experiences an increased login time when dual monitors are connected. At the initial login users are prompted to accept a warning banner once they connect to a desktop. After accepting the terms they begin the login process where you will see the welcome banner with the spinning wheel, however the spinning wheel becomes laggy when dual monitors are connected. at this point they will eventually get to preparing windows but the spinning wheel is still laggy. This login time can take up to 1 and a half to 2+ minutes. if i attempt a login with a single monitor, the spinning wheel is completely smooth and the login can take around a minute.

i have also seen this with Windows 10 1903, but my Windows 10 1809 deployment i do not experience this. I have made sure that the Video card settings on the VM is set to 2 displays with 32 MB and 128 MB dedicated.

 

ESXI and vCenter 6.5 with Decembers patch

Horizon 7.11 Agent and Connection broker

UEM 9.7 (currently upgrading to 9.10 since 9.7 isnt compatibly with 1909 but i dont see how that would fix this issue unless im missing something)

Clearcube Model CD9924 Dual DVI connected

VMware OSOT utilized
VMware SVGA Driver is 8.16.7.0 which i believe is the correct version (i have seen articles where some people have had VMware tools override the horizon agent's display adapters version)

 

 

Could this possibly be a Zeroclient issue? im not sure how that would be possible though

vsan stretched cluster - multiple HA isolation address

$
0
0

Hello there,

 

I understand it is recommended to have 2 isolation address for HA, one per site in our case of stretched cluster (Advanced Options | vSAN Stretched Cluster Guide | VMware )

So I configured an IP on site 1 (preferred) and another IP on site 2 (secondary).

 

I did crash test vsan and HA by shutting the replication link between site 1 and site 2.

vsan and HA worked as it should have : poweroff VMs on site 2, restart on site 1 : ok.

 

But, on the vcenter web interface, full errors claiming that HA could not restart VMs on site 2 hosts (insufficient ressources).

Only a graphical glitch I guess, so not that bad as VMs were restarted on site 1 where the storage was available.

 

But I was wondering, in our case, when ESXi on site 1 can reach isolation address 1, not isolation address 2

And ESXi on site 2 can reach isolation address 2, not isolation address 1

 

How is HA supposed to handle this ?

I recently tried to update my Workstation Pro V15.5.1 to V15.5.2.

After following through to Install, everything appeared to proceed until the error displayed in JPG 01 popped up.

Trying Retry or Ignore bought me back to the same pop-up. Choosing Cancel caused the install to roll back.

 

See GPG01: VMware Autherization service (VMAuthdService) could not be installed. Verify that you have privileges...

 

After the above install failed, returning to run the un-patched V15.5.1 bought up the errors seen in JPG 02 and 03.

Searching the Knowledgebase failed to find a fix.

 

See JPG02: The code execution cannot proceed because pcre.dll was not found. Reinstall program to fix problem.

and

JPG03: The ordinal 407 could not be located in <Program files> libcurl.dll

 

Anybody have any ideas? Thanks, Greg.
