Re: Using LDAPS (port 636) with VMware View Server
It's not easy being tasked with something impossible! View Connection Servers have an instance of AD LDS and replication between servers uses AD LDS replication. This is a secure replication mechanism...

There is an undocumented and unsupported feature to launch the client in standalone mode that will allow this, and this has not changed in the client versions.

Could you provide some more details, such as which guest OS you're running for your desktops, the specs of those desktops, any major applications you're running? It's hard to know what's causing...

Not sure if I'm following you but if you need to launch multiple View Clients you can do so with the -standalone switch: "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Client\bin\wswc.exe" -standalone

The key must be exportable in order to work, and yes you'll need the entire chain in the PFX. It's not necesary to delete the self signed after, but you certainly can. I usually recommend you leave it...

What does your composer queue look like? Have you looked at the SVI_TASK_STATE and SVI_REQUESTS table? It sounds like Composer might be getting jammed up. Also, 10GB is the _minimum_ we recommend these...

I just wanted to say that it works. All you have to do is import the .pfx, and make sure you check the 'Make the key exportable' during the import of the key and change the friendly name to vdm and the...

As has been mentioned, you can only do this with a USB adapter or RDP. We don't support native COM redirection with PCoIP. Since you're using a USB adapter, this should work. Is the COM device showing...

Erik, You can buy a wildcard certificate (although this might be too late) but I came across your post trying to find a similar answer. You can use *.company.com or *.corp.company.com - both work. All...

We use wildcard certs here. No problem. Just make sure the entire chain is in the PFX and that the certificate is exportable. View will import it someplace else (lord knows why) but it does

I believe there's a KB article, but look for any entries in the SVI_REQUESTS and SVI_TASK_STATE tables, this will tell you whats queued up. It's possible that you're also overwhelming vSphere if you've...

And for us, this problem started right after the upgrade from ESXi 5.1 to 5.5. Before this, we could just kill a VM that was hung with esxtop. Our system as well is far from overwhelmed and we are...

Yeah, that's interesting, then it definitely shouldn't be an overload issue. Could be the APEX cards, I suppose. You could reach out to Teradici directly, or via VMware Support. That sounds like it...
