Hi Community,  is there a way to allow only 1 Connection to the Vmware Horizon Pools for users, in our case we have 4 Pools and if the User has an error he connects to an another pools and ignore the Vmware App Volumes Message that the disk can not be connected (because it is connected on another pool machine) Is there way to avoid that? I cant find something in the Pools Seetings or in the Global Settings, if there is an another way i am also happy, how do you get rid of these connections without vmware app volumes disk not connected. thx for your help

The Solution was posted in an other Post:  https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Writables-volumes-change-Windows-search-path/m-p/2848470#M8474  Hi all, here is the support answer, may be it will help someone: This is a normal behavior of writable volumes, AV skips its search index redirection if it finds that an override is already set, whether by DEM, a GPO, the Control Panel Indexing UI, or a direct registry setting. The values checked by AV are   Key    HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search   Value  DataDirectory   Key    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows Search   Value  DataDirectory If neither is set, AV sets the second value, e.g., to   C:\SnapVolumesTemp\writable\persistent\Search\Data\

Is there a way to  configure Vmware App Volume to save only the .ost files for outlook cached mode and make the Windows Search over FsLogix ? The Problem is that if you activate over DEM Manayer App Volumes Settings : Store Offline Outlook Data File .ost on writeable  The Windows Search for Outlook will be also on the snapvolume.  Because the index of the windows search is always renewed at each logon we will go with FSLogix to avoid that. But we can't exclude the Windows Search from App Volume.   Thx for your help!

Dear Community,  I spent a lot of time to find the error Our Windows 10x64 20H2 Golden Image with: Vmware Tools 11.1.1 VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-7.13.0-16975066.exe Vmware DEM Enterprise 2103 Vmware App Volumes 4 - 2103 (i followed the Install Order VM-Tools - Horizon Agent - DEM Agent - App Volume Agent -that is not the problem) does not connect to the Vmware App Volumes Server - If I uninstall  the Horizon Agent VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-7.13.0-16975066 it connects withourt Problems. It costs me much time to find the Error, I thought it is the OSOT Tool or Windows 20H2 but it's the Agent! Do you have a solution for this?   thx for your help!   best Regards

Yes, the KB4592438 s not installed on the Golden Image - I think otherwise the Thinapps would 'nt work if i start them. (I can manually copy the Thinapp to the Image or start it over UNC Path, both work) The only Problem I have is that the Thinapp isn't copied to the image. I think I will change the behavior and start the Thinapps over UNC Paths with Shortcuts to them, or copy them to the Golden Image manually.... Best Regards Wurzel

Dear Community,  I updated the Golden Image from Windows 10 1909 to 20H2 and now the Thinapp won't installed on the Client: If I copy the Thinapps (5.2.9) local to the machine it works without problems. The Windows 10 1909 Clients are not affected, their the Thinapps works. In Vmware View Horizon Admin Console following Error is shown up: OpenPackageError details.

A big thx to the community, for your opinions. I will post in about 2 Weeks what direction we have chosen. Maybe we will make it step by step. This is my current view: 1.) Office 2010 >>> change to Office  2019 Local Installed on Golden Image 2.) Office 365 Business Premium >>> Appstack 3.) Writeable Volume IAF only (with App Volumes 2006 eg. 4.1) for OST and Searchable Index FSXlogic: I will test ist, but we bought Vmware App Volumes thats why i would try it with the software we current have 4.) Profile Management Change from Mandatory to Local (Our Mandatory Profile works Perfect with Windows 10x64 1909, and DEM delivers the User Profile Files, i don't know why the people say Mandatory doesent work, we have no problems ) I will mark the post as closed in about 2 Weeks, maybe there are another opinions which are interesting. best regards p.s. sorry for my englisch

Hi Community I need your opinion for the Direction we should go with the coming End of Live of Office 2010 We will use Office 2019 On Demand and Office 365 for some employers. Vmware Software what we had bought: Vmware Horizon Vmware DEM (UEM) Vwmare App Vollumes Standard Our Current Setup looks like this: - Windows 10 Golden Image (x64 1909) - Mandatory Profile - DEM - User Environment Management - Office 2010 Online Mode (not cached) This Setup Works really well and we have no problems Our Future Environment: - Windows 10 Golden Image (x64 1909) - DEM - UEM User Environment - Vmware App Volumes - Office 2019 (Cached Mode >>> That's why we have App Volumes) - Office 365 Business Premium (Cached Mode >>> That's why we have App Volumes) Here we don't know whats the best solution? a) What User Profile Management ist the best to go: Mandatory, Local Profiles, Roaming Profiles >>> If you have DEM and App Volumes b) Should we use App Volumes Writable for the Profile if it is a Local One? c) Should we use DEM for Profile and in Combination with App Volumes Writable Disk (So that the Local Profile saves the Profile on the writeable Disk?) d) We try it with the App Volumes 2006 Version, but we have Problems to get it run.... It Woult be nice do know what is the Current Way to go for User Profiles? Thx a lot for your Ideas Best Regards

Hi Uemdev Thx, for your answer. I hoped that their is a kind of auto negotiation, that defines the speed that is used by PCOIP and Blast. So it is difficult to handle a lot of external user with different speeds like UMTS - HDSPA - LTE..... Therefore i have to create Pools like UMTS-Pool with the optimal Speed Settings for UMTS. Or is their a other possibility to handle a lot of User with different speeds? best regards michael

Dear Community Do we need to configure all Bandwidth Settings to cover up all WAN Speeds. Here are our currently Settings: One Rule with the Setting: Broadband WAN (2MBS)- and the Condition - External 1.) The Question is, what would be if a external User logs in with more then 2 MB Speed? For my understanding, now all External Users become the same Settings, the Broadband WAN Smart Policy! Can I make  Rules for all kinds of Connections like  Low-speed, Dedicated and so on a seperate Rule? Meaning that the Smart Policy handle the rule by the Bandwidht, Speed of Connection? Or how can I differ between the speed of the Users, that not all become the same speed? 2.) Is this Smart Policies Bandwidth setting enough that the Speed is optimized or do I have to create a own Pool with lower Settings? We have the newest Release of UEM, Horzion, Agent and so on. Thx for your help Best Regards Michael

Next Update: Yesterday there wasn't a Client Network Drive Disconnect Error (I thought that I have fixed ist) but Today there are 2 Clients with the Error. Changes: I have lowered the Weight at the SRV Records from 100 to 25 of the Active Directory Jobs (ldap, kerberos,..) of the physical Domain Controller which is the PDC of the domain, to minimize the DNS / Active Directory Storm of the Clients. I wanted to check if the PDC is overloaded by Clients, and at this day we had no Client disconnect error. At the Evening I made a Recompose Job on all Pools, and today I had 2 Clients Disconnect Errors Again, they had 3 Kernel-General Events in the System-Log. (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc961719.aspx) >>> SRV Records Weight. Are they pingable by DNS and IP?  >>>> Yes you can ping everything in the domain, IP and DNS, From Client to Server or Server to Client. did you verify all the hosts have ntp started and is running: >>>> Yes on all ESX Host the Service is running and configured (We changed it to only 1 Physical to have only one Time Server, but this did'nt work) best regards michael

Little Update: -      We changed Lease Time to 10 Min --> This Fixed the low IP Adresse Error on the DHCP Server -     The GHOST Macs are also gone The Bad is, that stil some Vm's lose their Network Connection in Explorer (Pinging the Target Server is good, and no Error Message and so on) I have found another Strange Thing which could be the Source of the Error: If you look in the System Events of the VM which has lost their Network Connection, you can see 6x Kernel-General Events (Time Sync with PDC). Why do some VM's so often Sync their Time? In a normal Session their is only 1 Kernel-General Event. Here are our Time Recources for the VDI Esxi Host: About 2 Months ago we changed it to only ONE Physical Time Source, our physical PDC Server (before changing this to only one, the error was still their! ) The Sync Between Guest- and Host (Vmware Tools) is disabled What can I do to avoid this Kernel-General Messages? Thx Best Regards Michael

Hey TechMassey No the VM‘s which lost their network connection in windows explorer have no 169. Ip. E.G. The User works and want to open a file or save one, then it tells him the network connection is not avaiable. You can Ping all the servers which are marked as disconnected in windows explorer (Only Vmware View Clients have this Problems), there is no Error Message in Vmware.log of the VM or  in the windows events. No Receiving errors on the VDS Switch and so on. I talked to some manufacture of softwares which are also infected and we traced the error – The Software Manufactor said that their is a KeepAlvie Timeout and the server closed the connection To the Client. Thats why we changed nearly everything  New Core Switch / 1G to 10G (to avoid cabeling errors) / New LoadBalancer for View (Citrix Netscaler) / Wireshark on Esxi Host / Switch and so on…. / a lot of money I have two thoughts: Time Error (to avoid time error we changed the Time Source to One physical Machine, but that doesn’t help) or DHCP Error DHCP:   I have changed the lease time to 10 Min – i will report you Yesterday I investigated time for the DHCP Adresses error where we have not much Adresses free. I made a DHCP Cleanup of the VDI Scope >>> after that i saw some strange Ghost leases with MACS like: 31302e302e39302e31353200 (Hex Code)  and the same Lease Expire Time. I deleted them and until now they came not back (after google research this error is known, i will wireshark the dhcp server for UDP 67/68 and look which device sends this shit…,) Here a picture: One Question about Recompose: Do you use „Use Existing Active Directory Accounts“ --- We have Pools with it marked and without (but the errror is on both  ) Thx Best Regard Michael

Hey Sjesse DHCP LEASE Time is set to 1 Hour. DHCP Scope was not full but I see that there are not many IP Adresses anymore free. Thats strange because we have only eg. 120 Virtuell Desktops in this Scope and their should be 100 IPs Free (DHCP IP Reservations 1-30 and Scope from .30 - .254). I have added a LeaseExtension DWORD Key with 4 Hours to shorten the Grace Period..

Hey, we have a strange Problem - After Recompose a few Clients lose their network connectivity (Red X at the Windows Explorer) but there is no Connectivity Issue at all - no errors in VMware.log from clients or connection servers. If you reboot the client everything is ok and there is no error anymore. We traced with wireshark on all destinations, Client, Server,... but nothing to find. we also changed our core switch, our networking from 1G to 10G Speed, the Gateway and a lot more but nothing work. Thats why I want to check this error NETLOGON 5722 in the time where we Recompose is going on. Some Clients have this NETLOGON Error 5722 and some not, but the Image is the same. We take QUICKPREP for the Recompose, our Domain is a 2008R2 Active Dir. Domain. We don't know how we can find this errors, from 150 Clients, 1 or 2 have this error - if they reboot the machine everything is fine, but this is not normal... thx for your help, michael
