Horizon 7.13 & UAG

vols2 — Sun, 02 May 2021 08:42:57 GMT

We are rolling out Horizon 7.13 servers with Unified Access Gateway to handle connections from the untrusted Internet. These servers will be handling a mix of both internal and external users. I have two questions. When using UAG and external clients, do I need to give the UAG & View servers SSL certificates from a public certificate authority Or can I give the View servers certificates from our internal PKI while our UAG has certificate from a public certified authority

Horizon RDSH and Application pools

vols2 — Fri, 24 May 2019 04:01:01 GMT

Testing RDSH and application pools using Horizon 7.6 & one issue is I can"t save to USB or local drives. When installing Horizon 7.6 agent, USB redirection and client drive redirection were enabled.

On Horizon Client application, have also shared local drives.

How can I save to USB or local drive if using RDSH session or applications in an application pool, is this feature only available when using single user desktops, please advise

Re: Instant Clones

thanks for the info, Just another question, on the physical server we created two partitions, raid 1 and raid 10. RAID 1 partition to store OS and RAID 10 partition for the the VMs, is this correct or not, appreciate information on this

VCenter & Horizon 7 Instant Clone Pools

vols2 — Thu, 14 Mar 2019 23:31:55 GMT

Am new to VMware Horizon 7 Vcenter, Whats the recommended settings on vcenter if we use instant clones (Horizon 7.6). If we have 2 physical hosts, on vcenter is it best to have one Datacenter and 2 clusters (one cluster to one host) or one datacenter and one cluster with both hosts connected to one cluster. (This is for two labs in the same building, different levels)

Horizon 7.6

Appreciate if someone can take a look at the attached 7.6 agent log and advise if something is wrong with the agent.. We use Horizon 7.6 instant clones and vm's get disconnected randomly

Horizon Client Upgrade

vols2 — Mon, 25 Feb 2019 05:46:56 GMT

We are using HP t630 thin clients with thin pro OS , how do we upgrade the Horizon Client Application on the thin clients to the latest version as we plan to upgrade to Horizon 7.6 soon

Re: Users getting randomly disconnected

vols2 — Sat, 09 Feb 2019 12:23:54 GMT

using vmxnet nic, vmware tools version 10287 (10.1.15) installed on the instant clones

Re: Users getting randomly disconnected

vols2 — Fri, 08 Feb 2019 01:18:31 GMT

we have 2 hosts, connection server on each host with their own desktop pools. It's only happening on one server, the connection server was on Horizon 7.3 and we did an in-place upgrade to Horizon 7.6 following the steps in the vmware documentation of upgrading the connection server first then the agent on the golden image. On the golden image do we have to remove the old agent first or we can just install the new agent over the old one to upgrade

Re: Users getting randomly disconnected

Hi Sjesse

DHCP pool is fine. We have 2 connection servers and 50 thin clients in one vlan and all 60 win 10 vms in another vlan. It only happens to users who connect to the first server's desktop pool and use the vm"s in that pool. The second server and the vm"s on that desktop pool work normally . Could it be an agent issue. Not all users get disconnected at the same time, only 2 or 3 will get disconnected.

Re: Users getting randomly disconnected

vols2 — Fri, 08 Feb 2019 00:26:48 GMT

Was running wireshark on the VM"s Vlan and from the image when VM12 got disconnected it was showing the 169 IP instead of 144. We have 2 servers with the same config and only one is getting disconnected when users connect to the VM on that server. Any thoughts on what might be the issue

Re: Users getting randomly disconnected

vols2 — Wed, 06 Feb 2019 01:27:59 GMT

We use HP T630 thin clients, use blast as the display protocol and the agent is 7.6, the thin clients and the connection server is n the same vlan while the vm's are on another vlan. We are just using ESXI 6.5ui and Vcenter with the connection server as it is for student use in one of our labs. It has been working really well for the last 8 months. We were using Horizon 7.3 and then upgraded to Horizon 7.6 last week when the issue started happening

Hi Nettech

users are using HP thin clients to connect. Just to add I connected to the connection server using microsoft remote desktop and also got disconnected for a couple of seconds

this is another error msg from the logs, is java causing the disconnection issue

Reported error:Secure connection lost... shutting down.:

Users getting randomly disconnected

vols2 — Tue, 05 Feb 2019 01:52:48 GMT

We are using Horizon 7.6 with instant clones desktop pool and some users have reported that they have been getting disconnected. issue seems to happen randomly. Not all users get disconnected at the same time. Going through the logs i found this error message

Application launch failed, exception was: The agent returned an error response [ERROR-CODE=AGENT_ERR_LOGOFF_IN_PROGRESS]

Could the agent be the cause of users getting randomly disconnected

Re: Horizon Setup

Hi Ben

I meant if we only have one physical server, we want to install esxi and two win2012 vm's, one as connection server and the other one as the vcenter

Horizon Setup

vols2 — Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:51:35 GMT

Is it ok to have the connection server and vcenter hosted on the same physical server or will there be performance issues on this type of setup

On the connection server we want to create an instant clone desktop pool of 30 vm's

Hardware Spec for the physical server is 10 core dual processor with 256GB RAM & 5TB storage
