view composer agent state error (6) in windows 10 pool

i'm using the horizon 7.3.0 build 6571861

and just encountered strange error of the composer linked clone desktop pool, as shown below:

"View Composer agent initialization state error (6): Unknown failure (waited 0 seconds)"

every vm desktops have this error. every linked clone desktop pool has this error.

the desktop pool VM is using windows 10 x64  pro version 1709 build 16299.15

inside the OS, the service "vmware view composer guest agent server" showing it is "resuming", never "running"

i did make some configurations in the desktop OS such as DHCP settings, DNS server and firewall disabled...etc

and even tried re-install the view agent in the parent VM, still has the error.

is it a bug which matches what these articles mentioned?

Windows 10: Fall Creators Build 1709 Experiences

VMware Knowledge Base

or is it simply some mistakes in my horizon infrastructure's configuration?

Hello Mr. Niceguy ( Smiley Happy )

As stated here VMware Knowledge Base  W10 1709 is not yet officially supported.

It is only available ion the 7.3.2 tech preview.

The link you found VMware Knowledge Base (article/000051518 ) is for testing purposes only and not for production.

I have tested it and it works, but I am not yet confident togo with this in a production environment.

The above answers were given to me by VMware support.

Thank you
