I am looking for some help with an issue that we are running into with View Composer. At the end of this post is a blurb from the bottom of page 108 on the view administration guide.
Our domain is not fully qualified (we do not control the domain and have limited management ability) and we are unable to enter the information in the View Composer Settings screen. We have tried a couple different ways to enter the domain name (IP and the name we see) and we get back that it is a bad domain name every time.
I have checked the posts here looking for someone that may have had this issue in the past but I didn't find anything.
Has anyone run across this before and have any insight for me regarding this issue ?
Our environment:
IBM HS20 blades (3) with Intel processors
ESX 3.5 u4
Virtual Center 2.5 u4
View 3.0.1-142034
composer 1.0.0-126338
View Connection server 3.0.1-142034
Deploying Linked Clone Desktops from View Manager
View Manager can only deploy linked clone desktops if it is able to communicate with a properly configured VirtualCenter host that is running the View Composer service.
In addition, your Active Directory forest must have a fully qualified domain name, for example, example.com-you cannot use View Composer in environments where the domain controller has an unqualified name.
