Machines are deleted after provisioning

Hi

I’ve created a Horizon environment and created an Automated Desktop Pool

The funny thing is, that when the provisioning starts, the replica machine is created in vcenter, the virtual desktops are created and immediately after that everything gets deleted!

This is what is shown in vcenter tasks:

I have 3 virtual servers:

vCenter appliance 6.0.0 -3040890

connection server 6.1.1

composer server 6.1.1

any ideas?

I assume you are using quickprep when creating the pool.   Does the account you specified when setting that up have the correct permissions so that can join to the domain and move objects into the specified OU?

The Account has domain admin privileges (at least I think so! I must double check it!)

but does it matter? I mean if the account does not have the appropriate access, the system deletes the newly provisioned machines?

Hi,

The provisioned desktop  may get deleted due to following reasons:

1. Provisioning Customization could have failed for some reasons, so it may get start deleting

2. Auto-recovery could have enabled

So, Check the desktop whether provisioning is failed for some reason or not.

Update ADAM entry pae-RecoveryDisabled to 1. Path : Connect to ADAM using Adsiedit > Go to OU=ServerGroups > Select Pool and update the ADAM entry through Attribute Editor, will stop deleting the provisioned desktop automatically

Hi, sorry for reviving an old thread, but I'm having the exact same issue. Did you ever get this resolved?

i had the same issue exactly and  we found it was account permission, mean the account dose not have permission to create computer object, but which account?

when you add vcenter to Horizon and configure the composer

one of the steps is to add domain to composer

the account you use in this step should have proper permission
