      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;there should be no new configuration needed for usb to work in horizon 6.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;it is effectively unchanged in terms of its implementation. you still need to have port 32111 open for usb traffic, &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;which client are you using? (OS)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;are you connecting through the security server, or locally on lan via the connection server?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;on the client side what is displayed in the client side menu? - "USB Unavailable" or something else ?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;cheers&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;peterB&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;..ok - cool.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;so i think usb is working, its just not detecting a usb device to forward to the guest...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;SO - what device have you plugged in?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;can you confirm if you are plugging it into a USB2 port or a USB3 port? (try plugging into usb2 port if possible)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;then click the client menu and see if it offers any devices to forward&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;cheers&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;peterB&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have a support case open for a similar issue. In 5.2 we used this KB &lt;A href="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&amp;amp;cmd=displayKC&amp;amp;externalId=2059673" title="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&amp;amp;cmd=displayKC&amp;amp;externalId=2059673"&gt;VMware KB: Configuring USB plug-in delays settings for VMware Horizon View 5.2 desktops &lt;/A&gt; to configure a USB delay. It was specified in milliseconds. View 6.0 seems to read this as seconds. We used 2000 for our value. In 5.2, the delay is 2 seconds. In 6.0 this takes 33.3 minutes. Check to see what if anything you have in &lt;SPAN style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Courier New';"&gt;HKLM\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\USB\DefaultPluginDelay = DWORD: n milliseconds&lt;/SPAN&gt; . If it is 2000, try changing that to 2, or wait 33.3 minutes for your device.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does it help if you unplug and replug the device?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does it help if you restart client PC?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does it happen for other devices or only one device?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi Eric&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks for bringing this to our attention. We have gone back through the code bases since 5.1 and can confirm that in all releases the config value is indeed in Seconds. This is therefore a typo in the KB and we will get that updated shortly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;many thanks, and sorry for the hassle (and wasted time) this will have caused you,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;cheers&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;peterB&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
