Hi All
I just upgraded View Connections server and Composer from View 5.2 to 5.3. Still running vSphere/vCenter 5.0 but these are listed as supported in the support matrix.
My existing linked pools are working great (XP and Windows 7). I tried adding a new Windows 8.1 Pool with the latest View Agent installed on it but keep getting "view composer agent initialization state error (18) failed to join the domain". The irony is it does actually join to the domain, however the VM status gets put into an error state so it cannot be used.
Here's my agent log

Any thoughts?
