I'm trying to set up a CentOS 7 automated desktop pool. I have the following setup:
vSphere 6.7
Horizon 7.6
CentOS 7.4
Agent is installed
Linux machine is joined to the domain via `winbind`. A script (read/write/execute only for Root) is saved under /root. This script joins the machine and will update the /etc/hosts for DNS hostname resolution. The script runs correctly.
When publishing the pool, the following error appears on the desktops it attempts to provision:
Instant Clone agent initialization error (1): failed (waited 10 seconds)
I cannot find any information on this error.
Figured out the issue, all thanks to /var/log/vmware/viewagent-ngvc.log
Turns out the host was attempting to join the domain using PBISO. Since PBISO is not installed, the Customization portion of setting up the host fails and errors out. I had to edit the /etc/vmware/viewagent-custom.conf file and add:
OfflineJoinDomain=winbind
(Note: changing the value to anything but PBISO causes the action to be ignored. Doesn't matter what you assign it.)
