Hello,
I'm using LinuxMint,
when I try to launch any virtual desktop or RDSH application from Workspace portal, the browser cannot associate the format of the link (vmware-view://) to any local application, even if I've already installed the horizon client (working fine if launched directly).
Any suggestions on how to make this association or to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Luca
Hi
The resourceActionRef ID of for the destroy action differs across vRA versions. Is it expected behaviour ?
I am using the following API call. The shorter version of output as follows .Id value is different for each version of vRA. I checked aganist vRA 6.2.1 and 6.2.3
https://vRA-Ip/catalog-service/api/resourceOperations.
"@type": "ResourceAction"
"id": "d3c13a4a-bd4c-45c5-8549-5c8f8c25f4f0"
"externalId": "Infrastructure.Virtual.Action.Destroy"
"name": "Destroy"
"description": "Destroy a virtual machine."
Thanks
We have installed and configured VMware Update Manager Download Service which work fine for downloading patches and extensions. To this repo we have connected several vcenter servers. vCenter and VUM/UMDS is all running version 6.
Now, I'm going to upgrade a lot of hosts from 5.5 to 6U1b or 6U2. In that case I want to put the Dell Customized ISO/Offline bundle on the repo/UMDS server and create the baseline from that. I can't find much informarmation about UMDS, and nothing about what I want to do. So, does anyone know if it's possible, or is it only possible to import the ESXi image though VUM on each vcenter/vum instance ?

Hello.
I'm created a workflow with input parameters as mimeAttachment on a vRealize Orchestrator 7.
How to start this workflow with rest api by curl?
"id": "48f2f2c3-6f5f-4b1e-8b1a-f8dd74a9983d", "customized-icon": false, "name": "CreaVirtualMachineFromYaml", "version": "0.0.6", "description": "", "input-parameters": [ { "description": "Composite blueprint yaml file", "type": "MimeAttachment", "name": "file" } ] }
I'm trying this:
curl -k -1 --user username@domain.ru -X POST "https://vroserver:8281/vco/api/workflows/48f2f2c3-6f5f-4b1e-8b1a-f8dd74a9983d/executions/" -F "name=file;data=@/tmp/vm.yaml;type=MimeAttachment"
and this:
curl -k -1 --user username@billing.ru -X POST "https://vroserver:8281/vco/api/workflows/48f2f2c3-6f5f-4b1e-8b1a-f8dd74a9983d/executions/" --form "data=@/tmp/vm.yaml;type=MimeAttachment"
all my approach not working.
How do this?
I have one vcenter 5.5 . There are 2 cluster in vcenter. in clusters hosts have same resources . i want to learn that i know difficult answer but why consultant separate this clusters. same resource , same application
i wonder if servers down they dont want to all cluster down ?
I found the newest VDP code available on VMware site which is 6.1.2. I was able to download the Upgrade ISO but it fails at 94%. I have no issues with upgrade ISO detection. I must have done this 2 times already. There is no issue with space or etc. I have moved this VDP around from one ESX to another on my cluster and rebooted it plenty of times. Logged a call with vmware support and they are clueless as usual. They are telling me that I need to install a new VDP and that cant be the solution to the problem. Its so time consuming to redo all the work with backup jobs. Does anyone have a solution?. Thanks
Hello,
I recently updated our vRealize Appliance following these articles: How To Patch Or Upgrade VMware VRealize Operations Manager (vROps) ? | Settlersoman - A Settler In The SDDC World. and Upgrading vRealize Operations – that virtual boy.
When following the instruction I was faced with the question of which version to download- with windows based remote collectors or without. after consulting on the forum (Updating vrops appliance - what should I do regarding remote collectors?) I ended up upgrading with:
vRealize Operations Manager - Virtual Appliance Operating System upgrade - vRealize_Operations_Manager-VA-OS-6.2.0.3542056.pak
vRealize Operations Manager - Virtual Appliance upgrade (without Windows based RC) - vRealize_Operations_Manager-VA-6.2.0.3528954.pak
After the upgrade we noticed that vrops did not receive any updates from our vcenter (version 6.0.0 3339083 installed on windows server), The graphs, badges and metrics either are unavailable, with old values or just empty
:
I must admit I don't understand all that much about vrops. I mainly use some of the dashboards here and there to troubleshoot different errors, but I started poking around and got to this screen from administration > cluster management, and from it, it seems that vrops lost connection with our vcenter:
I took a snapshot before upgrading- but I was told it may not work since the upgrade updates the database as well.
what should I do?
Hi,
I've just upgraded my vRealize Operations to 6.2, and I'm working with two vCenter Servers – vCenter 5.5 Update 2b Build 2183111 (Windows OS), and vCenter Server 6 (Linux VCSA Appliance).
After the successful upgrade – the vCenter 5.5 stop collecting information (the adapter stuck on "Starting"), the vCenter 6 is fine and continue to collect information.
What I've done so far:
Anyone familiar with this issue and know how to solve it? I'll be glad to hear some tips/advices/workarounds/solutions to my issue.
Thanks! :-)

Hi Experts,
I have 2 hosts and connected to the shared iscsi storage. There were some issues in storage connection and as the result those esxi can't connect to the storage, the problem is vCenter VM is sitting inside the iscsi storage so vCenter access has been lost . I have rebooted the esxi hosts and add the required storage adapter and device can be detected as shown below :
But in datastores tab, show nothing. I have tried to list using "esxcfg-volume -l", also show nothing so i can't do force mount since no label/UUID listed.
I executed this command "esxcli storage core device list"
Mount this device using "Add Storage" wizard is possible but it will destroy all the data (option "keep existing signature" didn't appear), the datastore contains several VMs including the vCenter.
How can i mount this storage device without re-formating it?
Thanks alot

Hello,
I need to purchase some licenses for VMware Player workstation 6. But there are only licenses for Player Worstation 12 available.
If I purchase these licenses, will this be compatible with Player Workstation 6?
Is this possible to downgrade the license to Player 6?
Thank You,

Hello everyone,
I am bit of a newbie when it comes to scripting and command-line tools in general, but I was playing around with PowerCLI and Get-View in particular and I wanted to understand if there was a way to specify multiple conditions and do an "OR" between them in filters.
Something like...
Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Filter @{ name='ABC123' OR Snapshot!='' } # will not work
I took a look at the documentation and I was unable to find a solution, but perhaps a more experienced scripter could confirm this?
Thanks!
Hello all,
After the upgrade to "6.0 Update 2" and trying to update the disk format to version 3.0 I received the below error message.
Failed to realign following Virtual SAN objects:

due to being locked or lack of vmdk descriptor file, which requires manual fix.
Does someone has an idea to fix this ?
Hello,
I have done my research but I still can't seem to find the answer to my situation. Most of the times when the ramdisk is full it has something to do with the log files. That doesn't appear to be my case. The only thing that appears to be significantly out of whack is this tmp1 file which appears to be very large.
Can anything be done with that file?
Dear all,
one of my staff said she could not connect her desktop vm22 and the view client said "the view agent reports that this desktop source is unable to accept connections". my view administrator displays that “the pending session on machine xx for user xxx has been expired” . but i then assigned another user to the same desktop, everything looks fine.
background:
1. I am using view 6.0.
2. This user used to assigned another desktop vm06. it took a long long time (more than 30 minutes) to login (agent set not delete local persona) , This Morning when she tried to connect(already logged in before, here just reconnect), she got "there is no available gateway for this display protocol". So i assigned her to another desktop vm22
Is there something wrong with this user account or something else. Need your help!!! Thanks in advance!
I'm recently testing chromebook-Horizon view client solution, it turns out the view client will only use 1 screen despite the connected to external screens. The idea is, use the built-in hdmi connect to 1 screen and use usb-to-hdmi connect to another. Does the view client on chrome os can support dual screen like it does on the windows version?
We have a view environment in our production domain however we have a separate lab domain that consist of a standalone domain controller. We would like to be able to provision a VDI pool in our production environment for use in our lab environment. Obviously we don't want to allow full access and communication between the two domains. We also do not want to build an entire separate VDI environment in our lab domain. Does anyone know the best and most secure way to accomplish this? Our current environment consist of a security server, composer, appvolumes server and a connection server and replica.

Hi,
I would like to know if all the below listed products are sha256 compatible?
vCenter 5.5
SRM 5.5
VMware Horizon View 6.2
vRealize Automation 6.2
Running into a strange situation where someone is trying to create a new OS X 10.11 Virtual Machine using VMWare Fusion and is choosing the "Install OS X From the Recovery Partition" option. However, a message comes back saying "No Recovery Partitions Found" as
shown in the image below.
Whats interesting is that there IS a recovery partition named Apple_Boot Recovery HD and its present when running the "diskutil list" command as shown below. Anyone see this before? Is there a problem with this particular MAC or is the user missing some prerequisite action that must be performed prior to creating their Virtual Machine?
/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *1.0 TB disk0
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_CoreStorage Macintosh HD 999.7 GB disk0s2
3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
/dev/disk1 (internal, virtual):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: Apple_HFS Macintosh HD +999.3 GB disk1
In 5.x i would put each hosts local datastore into maintenance mode to prevent accidental deployment of files or VMs to the local datastore.
I do not seem to be able to do this - there is no option visible in the traditional and much loved client, and in the web client there is a menu option but it is greyed out and inactive?
Was this capability removed in ESXi 6?
