I am trying to do a feature update from win10 1809 to 1903. According to vmware 1903 is still supported with 7.8.
Unfortunately without success. The installation is aborted each time and reset to 1809 (error: 0x190101 or 0x8007001f).
What have I tried so far:
All disk changed from SCSI to IDE
Network card disabled
Installation direct via download
Installation via iso
Horizon Agent deinstalled
Anyone else have any tips?
I tried 1909 too, but the result is the same
Thanks
ps:
Since I switched from SCSI to IDE I noticed that Win10 boots immediately and does not need between 5-8 minutes!
I'd personally build a new master VM using Windows 1903 (or 1909) instead of updating the existing one or are you using Full Clone VM?
And by the way, if the installation failed it's not Horizon Agent fault and you had the proof of that as you tried after uninstalling the agent, so issue more related to Windows it self.
Do you have any error logs ?
Eric
no, there are no other useful logs in the panther directory.
yes, it's not the agent.
but 7.8 has an issue, it doesn't recognize the agent after you have reinstalled it anymore.
What kind of pool are deploying ?
Eric
Desktop-Pool
Full Clone Pool ?
Instant Clone Pool ?
or Linked Clone Pool ?
Eric
Linked Clone Pool.
Well, I made a test and build a new template base on Windows 10 2004, on vSphere 6.7U3 and Horizon 7.8, all works perfectly
HW :
vmxnet3
LSI Logic SAS

Hello Eric,
thanks for your test.
creating a template works without problems (I tested it with 1909).
but unfortunately under 7.8 the provisioning of the desktop-pool does not work, it hangs up.
Well, when I said it works, mean I've been able to deploy a Linked Clone pool of Windows 10 2004 on Horizon 7.8
Since I switched from SCSI to IDE I noticed that Win10 boots immediately and does not need between 5-8 minutes!
I think you should seriously consider building a new 1909 image from scratch, because it sounds like there are more than one issue
Hope you are following below KB for upgrading Windows 10:
Hello Eric,
many thanks for your help.
I tried again to install win10 2004 under 7.8 and here you go, it was up and running!
Do you have any advice on how I can transfer the data from the 1803 clients to the 2004?
