      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;The problem is that there is no error-log-event in the sql event database.&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;What is the reported status of the problem machines?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Perhaps you could trigger off that as that is often recorded in the events database.&amp;nbsp; &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;Often the desktop status is "Agent unreachable" but not ever.&lt;BR /&gt;The simplest would be that the powershell cli output can print the variable from the VMware View Administrator surface "Problem Desktops" out.&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;I agree that would be the simpliest thing but if I'm not mistaken that section of View Admin is taken from the status of the Virtual machines.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Since there is not a powershell at this time you could use the SQL method to get the information.&amp;nbsp; Or maybe you could create a powershell cmdlet that does the SQL query for you.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &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;Tried this script and am getting the 'DownloadSting" error.&amp;nbsp; Went to the authors site and others are getting this error with no fix.&amp;nbsp; We really need a way to get the problem desktops status.&amp;nbsp; We have many customers (connection servers) and at this point we have to log into each one several times a day to see if there are any issue with the problem desktops. Emaple too many desktops stuck in Main Mode, Anent Unreachable Etc.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
