@Re: Failed to perform space reclamation on machine desktop in Pool
There are many reasons behind this issue,one of the common mistake is below
Go to you connection server and find more information related to error message, for this you can refer below file
"C:\ProgramData\VMware\VDM\logs\log-yyyy-mm-dd.txt"
ERROR <PendingOperation-vm-A> [ServiceConnection25] Permission to perform this operation was denied.
ERROR <PendingOperation-vm-A> [PendingOperation] Error reclaiming space for VM ..........
If you see these entries make sure the affected user is having below permission from View
Solution: Virtual Machine -> Interaction -> Perform wipe or shrink operations [update existing role with this permission for View]
let me know if you need any more information on it

Hi Vkmr,
Thanks for responding for both of my replies
I will look into it and will update you.
You are welcome, please update me on it
also if above response is addressing you issue, after applying solution try to test it using below command
C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\tools\bin>vdmadmin -M -d mypool -m desktop1 -markForSpaceReclamation [this have to run on user VDI, this will allow user to re-clam space]
in general View admin will take care of this operation if user has permissions
Regards,
Vkmr.
Hi Vkmr,
In my case I missed this configuration and also I have two other VDI environments which is missing this configuration will update then accordingly
one's again thanks on your response!
