Starting to have more and more of this error. Started with 1 pool now is happening to more of them. Sometimes i can just try to RECOVER the desktop and that works and sometimes NO. Sometimes i can REMOVE the desktop and let it rebuild but sometimes NO. Then i need to use VIEWADMIN to clean up the ADAM DB and that is getting old. Is there an underlying issue that is causing this adn is there anything i can do about it?? This is what the admin console says about the current ones

Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
Outside of the patch has anyone seen a workaround to prevent this. I have small desktop pools, 15-20 max desktops, and I had a large percentage of them go missing this morning.
Hi,
sorry, there is no permanent workaround available for this issue.
The only workaround to get your environment up and running normally again is to shutdown all your connection servers and power it on at the same time.
This forces a resync of the internal LDS database and your environment will work normally again.
The root cause of this issue is a stucking communication between vCenter and the Horizon Connection Servers.
The best way to get stable is requesting the H-patch via VMware Support and installing it (open a PR via Support).
Cheers, JO
Thanks, I'm aware of that and have done that before for this issue, I was just hoping a shorter workaround was discovered. Thank you for all the updates I've been following this too see what you guys found
Followed this KB to fix the issue in our case:
hi all, I'm having the same problem on my envoriment. vCenter 6.4 + Horizon 7.4.
Recompose operations stuck on missing VM, and new pools stuck on "VM Folder missing". After servers reboot, everything is fine.
To get the hot path, the only way is openning a case with support?
tks!
Hi gustavocpw, I would suggest you to wait few mor days for the GA release of Horizon 7.5, this because the "patched version" is not production tested. Also with a single update you get new features as well.
Try to keep-on with Connection Server reboot.
If you want to open an SR with VMware, our hotfix version is VMware-viewconnectionserver-x86_64-7.4.0-8215536
Regards
Updating my case here...
Horizon 7.5 was released few days ago. After update my servers, the problem was solved, no more reboots needed to clean "missing vms"!
tks everyone
Hi there
Just for information. We got the same problem on our system. I solved the issue by deleting the ADSI entry on all connection server.
Just follow those steps:
Note: If you run the SviConfig RemoveSviClone command to remove linked clone data, the virtual machine is removed from vCenter Server. You can skip this task.
To delete the virtual machine from vCenter Server:
These steps are only applicable if the virtual machine has not been deleted from vCenter Server:Find the virtual machine's GUID stored in ADAM:
If the virtual machine has already been deleted from vCenter Server:
Delete the pae-VM object from the ADAM database:
