Airwatch Console 9.3 & IOS13 - Invalid Profil

$
0
0

Hi everybody,

I have a problem for the enrollment device in Airwatch.

The IPad is in DEP and when I enter the credential (with or without a configuration profil) i have this error: "Invalid Profil".

When I test with an IPhone IOS12, i don't have the probleme.

 

Can you help me please?


iOS Wifi restrictions / Airwatch removal

$
0
0

Hi

 

I've not been able to find anything in Airwatch to do the following but would appreciate if anyone knows different:

 

Is it possible to restrict iOS devices from connecting to Open wifi networks or Wifi with a Captive portal ? Our devices are all supervised by Configurator 2 but we cannot use the Whitelist Wifi function as we have too many networks allowed. 

 

Also is it the case that devices have to be in DEP in order to prevent the removal of Airwatch MDM ?  I believe so.  I've removed the Unenrol option in Hub but they can remove the profile.

 

Thanks
Adam.

USB 3 devices not mounting in Win10 VM - Fusion 11.5.1 + Catalina 10.15.3

$

I can't get any USB 3  / USB C devices to mount in a Win10 VM.  I'm not sure if this started with upgrade to Fusion 11 and/or Catalina (MacBook Pro 2018)???

 

I've read several articles with similar issues and no real fix.  When I plug in a USB 3 or C device it prompts to connect to Windows, It tries to mount, "bonks", several times, them the USB3 controlled shows (yellow !). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the controller/driver, all of them, with no luck.

 

Any suggestions?

Horizons Mac Client USB Arbitrator failing to start

I did a fresh install of the latest Horizons View Mac Client and attempted to start the USB Arbitrator for USB Redirection. I was having trouble getting the USB devices to show up in the dropdown menu, so I enabled logging following the instructions at https://www.vmware.com/content/dam/digitalmarketing/vmware/en/pdf/techpaper/vmware-horizon-view-usb-device-redirection.p…

 

For the vmware-usbarb-<PID>.log files, I get the following

VM migration fails on 6.5U2

$
0
0

Hello,

 

We encountered a vmx crash problem when migrating a VM from one host to another. Both ESXi version of src and dst host are 6.5U2. The backend storage of the VM is an NFS datastore, working with the certified NAS-VAAI plugin: VMware Compatibility Guide - Storage/SAN Search

 

The vmware.log shows that an invalid address is accessed when opening a database connection (the VM has a .db file) during vMotion:

 

2020-04-18T07:02:01.303Z| vmx| I125: NamespaceMgrCheckpoint: opening database connection (Huayun_OU01.db).
2020-04-18T07:02:01Z[+0.052]| vmx| W115: Caught signal 11 -- tid 124426 (addr 28)

Some more tests show that:

 

1. Only a few VMs have this problem. For these VMs, storage vMotion from NFS datastore to another datastore is also failed, and has the same error log (accessing invalid addr 28).

2. If the VM is rebooted before migrating, migration could be successful.

 

Attachment is the vmware.log of the failed VM, and the zdump generated when vmx crashed.

 

Any comments are welcome.

CDR not reliable

Hello,

 

I am wondering if this a common issue and who can help.

 

Every second or third time a user connects to his VDI desktop, client drive redirection to his local computer's user profile is not mapped. When is logs off and back on OR just clicks the "X" and reconnects the running session, the drive is like mapped. Network connection between client, connection server and VDI desktop is good. Could not find anything related in the logs.

 

Running Horizon 7.8 with Windows 10 1809 pool using Horizon Agent 7.10 (Same on Agent 7.8)

Clients using Horizon Client version 5.2 or 5.3

As the issue occurs, also \\tsclient\<Username> is not reachable so it is not just the drive mapped to "My Computer".

 

Who's got a clue that the issue is?

Hi, I've been over a few threads but can't fix it thus far.

 

I'm running Fusion11.5 on OS 10.15.4 Catalina, I have agreed and added VMfusion within the system preferences to

SystemPreferences > Security&Privacy > Accessibility (& Full disk access)

 

VMfusion is up and windows running, I mount the drive, VM asks to run on windows > yes > but it doesn't register. ( windows makes the sounds of a drive being plugged and unplugged ). I can't unmount with within disk management although I can't see it, then is mounts to the Mac desktop.

 

Any insights?

 

Many thanks

This is regarding WS1 SaaS (20.4.0.2 (2004)) Android Enterprise managed devices deployed with an Application profile that enables the use of whitelisted System Apps.

 

The whitelisting works , but I also want to be  able to manage the updates centrally from the WS1 dashboard, i.e. push update like is done with regularly managed Apps.

Is there a way to do that?

Upgrade of ESXi 6.5 - no longer can see internal server RAID drives

$
0
0

We have an incident where after upgrading our Supermciro to the latest 6.5 ESXi release where ESXi is not seeing the internal SAS drives. 

Internal SAS controller is not seeing the drives.  Prior to the ESXi update, vCenter was showing under Storage Adapters, MegaRAID SAS Invader Controller with Storage Device Local AVAGO disk.

 

I booted the ESXi server and went into the RAID utility. All of the drives show on-line and active with no failures.

I checked with the vendor and we tried a new backplane riser card.  Did not help.  He said if the drives are seen by the controller, then he thinks the problem is not a hardware issue. 

 

He thinks there is some disconnect in the ESXi somewhere …especially since the only two hardware pieces it could be at this point are backplane and motherboard. However, the internal SATA drives are working fine, so that really rules out the backplane and motherboard.

Has anyone seen anything like this after upgrading ESXi 6.5?


Anyone see something similar?

 

thanks

Resync components in vSAN takes a long time!

$
0
0

I have a vCSA + 3 ESXi on same cluster and a few days ago, I checked status in vSAN and I see that many components takes very long time to succesfully resync.

 

Despite of doing the action via vSphere Web Client to repair objects inmediately, did not work.

 

I see many post in this forum and I check that there would be commands like vsan.resync... It affects to normal functionality of VMs in the moment you put these commands?

 

Is there a way to check, how to repair these object manually? On the other hand, the VMs, ESXi and vCSA works OK, but for example when I try to clone a VM with resync components already working, there is no way, it fails to do the process (I understand because in this moment is doing resync components).

 

Thanks in advance. Regards!

I have used this script for a few years to find now it is just producing an empty report.  When I review it the script it pulling:

I am not sure what variable isn't pulling data from correctly though to investigate.

UAG Gateway Unknown Not Registered in Horizon 7

I just installed a UAG 3.9 and am running Horizon Connection Server 7.12.  All my Horizon Settings are green in the UAG to include PCOIP, Tunnel, Blast, UDP Tunnel Server, and most importantly Horizon Destination Server.  It appears I'm all green with connectivity to my CS.  When I register my UAG in the Horizon CS Admin console under Servers->Gateways, it remains unknown.  The Version and IP Address are listed as N/A and it is unknown on the Dashboard.  It is listed as External in the Gateway section of the Horizon CS Admin console.  My UAG Name in the System Configuration Advanced Settings matches the name registered in the Horizon CS.  They are both the FQDN of the UAG Appliance.  Why won't it register as a Gateway with the Connection Server?
