I’m having some trouble accessing my view desktops from the UAG. I initially deployed UAG 2.8.1 as I was on horizon view 7.0.2. I deployed the UAG through PowerShell following the instructions from Mark Benson’s post Using PowerShell to Deploy VMware Unified Access Gateway .  I didn’t run into any issues during the deployment, and I was able to logon to the admin web gui to add the thumbprint. However, when I try to access the view environment from the UAG either through the browser or the view client I get the following errors.

            Through the web (firefox, IE, Chrome):

“ 404 Error Page Not Found “ “ The page you requested (https://MyViewURL/r/EABs8329-282A-3328-7432-A383477587234/certAccept.html?numPages=1) could not be found” “Click to return to Front page.”

            Through the view Client:

“ Failed to connect to the Connection Server. The server provided a certificate that is invalid. See below for details:  - The host name in the certificate is invalid or does not match.

I thought I might have just converted the certificate incorrectly, so I upgraded my environment to 7.1 and tried using the UAG 3.0. the UAG 3.0 accepts the PFX format I figured it would be easier importing the cert. Using the new PFX format I could not deploy the PowerShell script with it in place. I had to omit the certificate and go back into the web gui and add the cert after the UAG was deployed. When trying to add the certificate using PFX, I received and error message stating “More than one certificate found. Specify an alias from list” . I was able to work around the error by copying the entire alias that was presented with the error into the PFX Alia bar (As suggested in this post “Deploying UAG 3.x using powershell with PKCS#12 certificate fails”)). I made sure my Thumbprint was the same as the Thumbprint found on the certs within the connection server. Unfortunately, that did not resolve the issue.

My connection servers are behind a NetScaler load balancer and the connection is working internally. However, going through the UAG I get the errors stated above.

Also, I get this issue whether I point the UAG to the internal vip or directly connected to the Connection server.

Has anyone run into this issue before? 

Hi,

Does anyone know exactly what the difference is in the Defragment option available in Workstation's: VM | Settings | Hardware tab | Hard Disk | Utilities dropdown | Defragment", vs the Windows host's native defragment utility (aka defrag.exe) ?

I'm not finding any information that says WorkStation's defrag utility does anything different than the host's Window's defrag. I could guess that VMware's Defragment it possibly only defrags the VM's files, as opposed to the Windows host's defrag which defrags the host's entire volume. That might be a faster way to defragment the VM's files if saving time is your goal.

I'm assuming that Workstation's defrag is not defragmenting the (e.g.) file entire NTFS file system of a Windows Guest OS volume, or (e.g.) an Ext4 file system of a Linux Guest OS volume.

So, is Workstation's Defragment defragmenting some internal structure of the vmdk and/or snapshots? After several hours of research, I'm still clueless what Workstation's Defragment actually does.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this inquiry.

Regards . . .

Hello,

We have had UAG running for a while and it works fine using the full client but there has been a recent requirement for HTML Blast access for external users which does not work fine.

It's been enabled for a while as far as I'm concerned but we never tested it. Authentication works fine and users can see and select their desktop pool, it then takes them to a screen saying "Failed to resolve proxying route for request".

I have downloaded to log bundle but it's not revelaing very much at all. The last entry in the esmanager.log file says "Accessing virtual/rdsh desktop using protocol BLAST with ipAddress x.x.x.x (the connection server). The BG log file really doesn't say anything of note.

HTML access works fine internally if not using the UAG and there are no drops of any traffic on the firewalls. I do have a load balancer in place but I am bypassing that for now and just pointing at a single connection server, it makes no difference though.

Horizon 7.01

UAG 2.9

Cheers.

Hello,

Looking to migrate to UEM just wanted to know if running AppSense and UEM side by side would cause any conflicts.  Just looking to run it side by side on a temp basis to capture user personalization prior to removing AppSense policy and agent.

Thanks In advance!

Hi,

I have added a new 'hardware device'(with HW-VTEP switch certificate -  say SC1) under NSX's 'Service definition'.

Now if I have multiple HW_VTEP switches with same certificate(SC1), then what would be the expected behavior??

Whether connection between only one HW_VTEP switch and controller happens, and rest of the connections are dropped?? or

Connection flaps between all the switches? or something else??

Note: I got this question because my understanding is the switch trigger the connection to NSX controller and not the other way.

Thanks,

Arun.

Hello I want to ask...how to make VM take internet right away Network Adapter(Atheros) and no through the windows  like ethernet....My friend tell me to go to this

directory(VM->Removable Devices -> ) and find for my Network card..but it doesnt appear why?

hi i need your help

im facing a problem

the c (boot) drive in the vm is thin provisioned

it got bigger so i used sdelete -z c:

turned off the vm

issued vmkfstools -k <vm drive>.vmdk (not the one with flat)

in the middle of it, i accidentally issued ctrl+c

then issued the vmkfstools command again

finished

tried to boot it , it wont boot

tried repairing with windows iso

it shows that it is free

tried to expand the vmdk and boot , nothing

is there a way to fix it

i dont have backup unfortunately

thanks in advanced every one

Hi Everyone,

I have fiddled around quite a bit right now on how to update a the current storage Profile from a vApp and a vAppTemplate to a new one (including moving the VM to the new Storage Profile/Datastore). We are migrating the Storage and have created new StorageProfiles for the new storage and now I need to move the vApps and the vAppTemplates to the new Profile.

It seems according to the API that you should be able to do this using a vmModify request since the relocate is now deprecated (VMware Documentation Library ) but I'm not sure how one would do this through the PowerCLI commands. Also I found this link Change vCloud vApp/VM Storage Profile with PowerCLI | Matt Vogt  which describes what I actually need to do to a certain degree but seems that his version was only for vCD 5.1 and does not work anymore with vCD 8.2 and PowerCLI 6.0.3.

Does anyone have some inputs for me on how I could script the two above tasks?

Thanks a lot in advance

Dear VMware experts,

I was recently forced to switch to Windows 10 (Enterprise), 64-bit. I used that opportunity to also switch to the latest

VMware Workstation 12.5.

I immediately experienced very annoying problems. When I try to start a VM, it says, that it can't access the VM and

after a short googling, I found the solution - that it's necessary to restart the 'VMware Authorization Service'.

Nevertheless this worked, I find it particularly annoying, that this is just a workaround, that needs to be applied EVERY

TIME I need to launch a VM and this is NOT OK - it costs me precious time and it's pretty much distracting my thoughts.

Please kindly let me know, if there is a solution to this problem, or I shall revert back to version 11, which was working

flawlessly (at least under Windows 7).

Many many thanks for your help in advance!

We've recently upgraded our network equipment, so we can now make use of the 10Gb ports on our servers.  Two servers have Cisco VIC 1227 cards, and the other two have Intel x520 (both are dual 10Gb port).  We've connected the ports to the switches using approved twinax cables, and configured the ports appropriately.  In ESXi (5.5 U3), I can see the card and see both ports.  We first tried just a very standard config, with a single port going to a new virtual switch, and then created an adapter in one of the Windows guest VMs.  The adapter shows up fine, but does not get an IP address.  Tried statically configuring one (which would be how we would normally set it up anyway), but it couldn't ping anything else on the network.  The port config should be fine as far as we can tell, in terms of VLAN and whatnot, as if we configure an open 1Gb port on the same server to the same switch everything works perfectly.

I've also tried creating a new vmkernel port - same issue. Even tried enabling one port for passthrough, and adding it into the VM as a PCI device.  Windows recognizes it, gets the driver (via the old 1Gb interface, when I re-enabled it for this), and shows it as the correct hardware.  But again, no connectivity.

Interestingly, the switch shows the ports as being up, packets as coming and going, and no error messages.  But I just cannot seem to connect with these ports in ESXi no matter how I try.  I updated the drivers with the most recent from the VMWare site, and the cards are both listed on the compatibility list for our ESXi version.

I'm stumped as to what to try next, where to look, etc...  Any posts I'm seeing seem to reference the 10Gb ports not showing up at all, but that's not the case here.  Everything I can see looks like everything's perfect; you know, except for the fact they just don't work.  :-D

Can anyone else reproduce this?

Recently moved all my VMs from Host Win7-64bit to Win8-64bit.

Fresh install of Player v 5.0.2 build-1031769

Computer is Acer Aspire M Intel i5 @ 1.8Ghz

Graphics is Intel HD 4000

When any of the various VMs are started from the Powered Off state, the player window will open and a big black screen will appear where the guest display should be shown. The guest OS does indeed boot, right up to the login screen although with no display visible. If I try to click on the close button in the upper right corner, I get a dialog box that says "The Virtual Machine is Busy". My only option is to end the vmplayer.exe task using task manager. Once I do that, the VM shows state as Powered On in the Library. If I Play it the 2nd time, the VM will resume operating correctly with the proper display at the immediate point where I expected it to be when I ended the vmplayer.exe task earlier.

Presence or absence of Tools in Guest does not affect the problem.

All 3 of my VMs have the exact same behavior. Guest operating Systems are: WinXP-SP3-32bit, Win7-64bit built from the VMware Converter, and Server 2008 from the MS eval ISO.

Any ideas? Once the play/end task/play sequence is performed the VM works correctly. Until it is shutdown or hibernated. A VM restart does not exhibit this symptom. The problem is reproducible with all VMs every time.

Provided vmx for the XP VM and a few logs.

Thanks in advance. I'm so close to having this work it's even more frustrating than if it didn't work at all.
