Horizon Admin Console Local Access

We were using an AD group for admin access to the Horizon admin console.  That group has been deleted and now we are unable to login to the console as an admin.    Is there a way to login locally on the Horizon server, or where can I tweak something to allow it to use another account?

There is a ldap database on the connection server, I don't know the exact spot to look for the admin group, if no one responds or preferably now just open a ticket and support may have something

@MF-WBC ,

  • Log in to the connection server operation system, click Start >  Windows Administrative Tools > ADSI Edit（Connecting to the View ADAM Database）
  • In the console tree, right-click ADSI Edit, and then click 'connect to'
  • Connection Point, distinguished name: 'DC=vdi, DC=vmware, DC=int'
  • Computer: 'localhost:389'
  • Click 'OK'.
  • Select and expand 'DC=vdi,dc=vmware,dc=int'
  • Select 'OU=Groups'
  • Find 'CN=Directory Administrators', right-click, and then click 'Properties'.
  • Select 'Member', and then click 'Edit'
  • Click 'Add Windows Account...', query an existing AD Admin Group or user, and then click 'OK'
  • Remove the old admin group
