1 / I am no longer able to connect to virtual desktops using PCoIP - I get a black screen or it just closes out.

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1022830

Upgrading VMware Tools in a virtual desktop causes PCoIP connections to fail

Symptoms

  • Connections to virtual desktops using PCoIP fail
  • You are no longer able to connect to virtual desktops using PCoIP
  • You have recently updated VMware Tools

    For example, you have installed ESX 4.0 Update 2, which updates VMware Tools, and you are no longer able to connect to virtual desktops using PCoIP

Resolution

Prevention

To avoid this issue, do not upgrade to ESX 4.0 Update 2 if you are using View 4.x with PCoIP.

OR

You can install VMware Tools for ESX 4.0 Update 2 without the SVGA driver.

To install without the SVGA driver, after upgrading you VMware Tools package on ESX host, from vSphere Client:

  1. Right-click on the guest, and click Guest > Install/Upgrade VMware Tools.
  2. Ensure Automatic Tools Upgrade is selected
  3. Copy and paste the following text as it applies to your environment into Advanced Options:

    Note: Do note include line breaks when you copy the text. The line breaks are for formatting purposes only.

    For x86 guests:
    /s /v "/qn REINSTALLMODE=voums REINSTALL=WYSE,VMXNet,VMCI,Mouse,MemCtl,Hgfs,VSS,VMXNet3,vmdesched,ThinPrint,Sync,
    PVSCSI,Debug,BootCamp,Audio,Buslogic,VICFSDK,VAssertSDK,Toolbox,Upgrader,GuestSDK,
    PerfMon,Common,microsoft_dlls_x86,ArchSpecific"

    For x64 guests:
    /s /v "/qn REINSTALLMODE=voums REINSTALL=WYSE,VMXNet,VMCI,Mouse,MemCtl,Hgfs,VSS,VMXNet3,vmdesched,ThinPrint,Sync,
    PVSCSI,Debug,BootCamp,Audio,Buslogic,VICFSDK,VAssertSDK,Toolbox,Upgrader,
    GuestSDK,PerfMon,Common,microsoft_dlls_x64,ArchSpecific"
  4. Click OK. VMware Tools automatically upgrades in the guest, and the guest reboots.

Workaround

For customers that do not have a requirement to use PCoIP, you can use RDP. For more information on using RDP, see the VMware View Administration Guide.

For customers that are experiencing the issue and want to continue using PCoIP, use this workaround:

Note: VMware recommends that you have VMware View 4.0.1 installed prior to performing these steps.

  1. Log in to the affected virtual machine(s) with Administrator rights. This is any virtual machine that has the VMware Tools shipped with ESX 4.0 Update 2 installed.
  2. Rename the C:\Program File\Common Files\VMware\Drivers\Video folder to C:\Program File\Common Files\VMware\Drivers\Video-OLD.
  3. From a working virtual machine, copy the C:\Program File\Common Files\Vmware\Drivers\Video folder to C:\Program File\Common Files\Vmware\Drivers\ on an affected virtual machine.
  4. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > System.
  5. Click the Hardware tab and click Device Manager.
  6. Expand Display Adapters.
  7. Choose VMWARE SVGA II. Right-click on it and choose Properties.
  8. Click the Driver tab. You are presented with the SVGA driver properties.

    The version is 11.6.0.34 (Driver Date 01/03/2010).
  9. Click Update Driver. The Hardware Update wizard displays.
  10. When prompted with the question, "Can windows connect to Windows Update to search for software?", click No, not at this time and click Next.
  11. When prompted with the question, "What do you want the wizard to do", click Install from a list or specific location (Advanced) and click Next.
  12. Click Don't search. I will choose the driver to install and click Next.
  13. On the next screen, you are presented a list of two or more VMWARE SVGA II Versions to choose from. For example:

    VMWARE SVGA II Version: 11.6.0.31 (21/09/2009)
    VMWARE SVGA II Version: 11.6.0.32 (24/09/2009)
    VMWARE SVGA II Version: 11.6.0.34 (01/03/2010)

    Choose VMWARE SVGA II Version: 11.6.0.32 (24/09/2009).
  14. Click Next. The driver begins installing.
  15. Click Continue Anyway when Windows notifies you that VMware SVGA II has not passed Windows logo testing.

    The driver install completes.
  16. Click Finish.
  17. Click YES when prompted to restart your computer.
  18. Verify that PCoIP is now working.

Note: VMware is investigating a permanent fix for the issue so our customers can upgrade to ESX 4.0 Update 2 without experiencing this issue.

We will update this article with more information as it becomes available.

4 / When running a PowerPoint Presentation on a VM using VMware View Client is runs extremely slow.

VMware suggests to change the default video driver in the VM from "VMware SVGA 3D (Microsoft Corporation - DDM)" to the VMware driver from "c:\program files\common files\vmware\drivers\video"

arrow pointing down arrow pointing up
5 / A duplicate copy of the same attached USB printer is seen inside the virtual desktop.

The duplicate printer appears because RDP printer redirection is enabled while USB redirection is enabled in the Virtual Desktop Manager Client.

RDP presents the printer through the printer redirection feature at the same time the USB device is presented by Virtual Desktop Manager to the virtual desktop.

To correct this issue, disable RDP printer redirection using either a registry key or a policy:

  • Modify the following registry key:
  • HKCU\Software\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\RDP Settings\RedirectPrinters

    Set the value to false

6 / Trying to connect to a Windows 7 VM and just get a black screen which eventually disconnects.

7 / When I start a Linux VMware View session or attempt to select a VM desktop it immediately returns to the Connection Manager.

VMware View 5 is designed for security and by default requires a secure https connection using a preinstalled certificate.

If you are not using an https or secure connection to your VMware View Server then follow these steps.

  • When creating the connection on your 10ZiG thin client, choose the Advanced Tab and uncheck the Disconnect from server on logoff.
  • Now connect as normal to your VMware View Server as normal but you will now notice this prompt alerting that the Server is unsecure. On the initial set up of the connection.
  • Now click on File, Preferences
  • In the Preferences window change the Default connection type to ALLOW…(Not Secure) and click OK.
  • Now click on File, Quit
  • Choose your connection and click Connect and proceed to log on as normal and select your desktop.

9 / How can I install CA certificates on the 8848v and 5848v?

Linux is different than Windows in that you must manually install the certificate from a USB thumb drive or via the Manager (template will also carry the certificate once it is installed)

Go into Settings - Security and check Enable Installation from USB Storage

Copy the certificates in .crt or .pem format including the root and intermediate and server certificate onto the USB thumb drive. Place the thumb drive in the thin client. Once the thin client detects the USB thumb drive and sees the certificates it will present the following menu:


Once the certificates are uploaded you can see them by taking the option for settings as seen below:

Select the certificates ICON

From the certificate option you can view the imported certificates and highlight then select Show for certificate details.


Change to view source of Base Certificates which have been preinstalled. Many of the common certificates are installed but if the required base certificate is one that has not been installed it must be installed using the USB method.

5 / Using a USB webcam in VMware Horizon it is either slow or does not redirect.

The USB redirection feature that can be installed with Horizon Agent does not support webcam redirection. If you redirect audio input devices through USB redirection, the audio stream does not synchronize properly with video during Real-Time Audio-Video sessions, and you lose the benefit of reducing the demand on network bandwidth. You can take steps to ensure that webcams and audio input devices are redirected to your desktops through Real-Time Audio-Video, not USB redirection.

43 / How can I install CA certificates on the 8848v and 5848v?

Linux is different than Windows in that you must manually install the certificate from a USB thumb drive or via the Manager (template will also carry the certificate once it is installed)

Go into Settings - Security and check Enable Installation from USB Storage

Copy the certificates in .crt or .pem format including the root and intermediate and server certificate onto the USB thumb drive. Place the thumb drive in the thin client. Once the thin client detects the USB thumb drive and sees the certificates it will present the following menu:


Once the certificates are uploaded you can see them by taking the option for settings as seen below:

Select the certificates ICON

From the certificate option you can view the imported certificates and highlight then select Show for certificate details.


Change to view source of Base Certificates which have been preinstalled. Many of the common certificates are installed but if the required base certificate is one that has not been installed it must be installed using the USB method.

5 / How can I add a DNS Service Location Record for the 10ZiG Manager server?

A Service (SRV) record is a Domain Name System (DNS) resource record that is used to identify computers that host specific services. Clients query for a specific service/protocol name within a specific domain to receive the associated server hostname and port number.

SRV records are added to the "Forward Lookup Zone" for the DNS domain with the name formatted as "_servicename._protocol.domain" e.g. "_tzmgr_discovery._udp.example.com"


With the 10ZiG Manager, our Linux v9 (9.9.x or later) and Windows (XTC Agent 2.0.1.3 or later) devices can query for the manager server location and automatically initiate registration.


The manager now has the capability to automatically register an SRV record with a local Microsoft DNS server, assuming the user has the appropriate privileges. However, if the automatic SRV record creation fails, use the following instructions to manually add the record.


A DNS Service Location record can be created to provide the host name of the computer and port on which the 10ZiG Manager server is located allowing thin clients to “check-in

8 / What ports are used by the 10ZiG Manager?

The 10ZiG Manager communicates with the various thin clients on several network ports that will conflict with existing DHCP or Active Directory functionality; therefore, it is recommended that the Manager not be installed on computers that already host these services such as domain controllers.

Following are the associated ports for the 10ZiG Manager:

  • Network Ports and Purpose
    • TCP 3306 - Used by the local MySQL service hosting the Manager database.
    • TCP 11132 - The Manager Console retrieves information from the Server via this port.
    • TCP 11133-11147 - A Manager Console will register one of the ports in this range, usually 11133, with the Server to receive various notifications.
    • TCP 445 - Used in the PXELinux image for authentication to the ImageStore share.
  • Client Discovery and Communication Ports
    • UDP/TCP 52500 - Broadcast discovery port for Windows (XTC Agent) and Linux 9 thin clients.
    • TCP 52510 - This RPC port is used by Manager Server to perform remote operations and queries on Windows (XTC Agent) clients.
    • TCP 52511 - This RPC port is used Windows (XTC Agent) clients to notify the manager server when they come online or are going offline.
    • TCP 80/443 (HTTP/HTTPS) -These Web ports are used by Manager Server to query information from and perform operations on Linux 9 (LTC Agent) clients.
    • UDP 1680 or TCP 1680 - Depending on whether TCP discovery is enabled, one of these ports is used to discover of Linux 8 and Windows CE thin clients.
    • TCP 21(FTP) - The port is used by Manager Server to query information from and perform operations on Linux 8 (Browsed Agent) clients.
    • TCP 8001 - The Manager Server publishes firmware update packages for Linux clients on this port.
  • Template Port - Linux
    • WEBDAV on port 80 for standard connections or a websocket tunnel on client initiated webtunnel in the case of "cloud connected" (default cc port would be 443).
  • PXE Boot Ports
    • UDP 67 (DHCP/BOOTP)- The Manager Server responds to DHCP/BOOTP requests from this port for PXE-Booting clients for image deployment/recovery.
    • UDP 68 (DHCP/BOOTP)- The client listens for responses to DHCP/BOOTP requests from manager server for image deployment/recovery.
    • UDP 69 (TFTP) - When PXE-Booting, the PXE configuration and boot image are transferred to the client via TFTP
  • Syslog Port
    • UDP 51

Cloud Connector Ports

    • 443 - or whatever port you assigned the CC.


Tip: If you are unable to PXE boot from your 10ZiG Manager, run a command prompt and type in netstat -abp udp to find out what services are bound to your ports.

A working example should look like this

UDP(DHCP/BOOTP) 0.0.0.0:67
[MgrService.exe]
UDP(TFTP) 0.0.0.0:69

20 / I am trying to update my older Linux thin client using a tar file in the 10ZiG Manager but it fails.

To update if your image is lower than 9.9.4 you must update using a binary image. Contact Tech Support for location and credentials to download updated image.


There are two are options - restore the binary image using the 10ZiG Manager (https://www.10zig.com/manager) or use a thumb drive created by TzImgUtil (See Question 3 under 10ZiG Manager to download the USB Image Utility).

Update using 10ZiG Manager

  1. Install the 10ZiG Manager and copy the binary file to 10ZiG Manager\ImageStore (created when you install the 10ZiG Manager)
  2. If the thin client is seen in the 10ZiG Manager, right click on it, select Image Management and then Backup and Restore
  3. The thin client will be moved to the Image recovery tab with PXE set to Yes

    If the thin client is not seen by the 10ZiG Manager, click on the Image recover tab and add the MAC address of the thin client using the Add MAC ICON

  4. Change the BIOS settings of the thin client to boot from LAN (BIOS password is 10ZIG)
  5. Boot the thin client and it will PXE boot to the 10ZiG Manager
  6. When the thin client has booted it will be displaying a recovery menu on the display but do not use that menu, rather use the Image recovery tab. Right click on the thin client to be reimaged (it should now indicate PXE YES with a green dot) and select Restore Binary Image>
  7. Select the image file to be restored
  8. The 10ZiG Manager will restore the image and indicate a successful restore when complete
  9. Right click on the thin client and deselect the PXE boot option
  10. Reboot the thin client which now has the updated image

Update using a USB Thumb Drive

  1. Download the image utility from our FAQ pages (See Question 3 under 10ZiG Manager to download the USB Image Utility and documentation).
  2. Extract the utility and run the program to make a USB thumb drive bootable for the utility
  3. Make certain you format as fat32 and the USB thumb drive needs to be large enough to hold the boot files and the binary fileNote: This program will erase all files on the thumb drive
  4. Enter the BIOS of the thin client (password 10ZIG) and set the first boot to USB (on some units the option may be USB Zip)
  5. Boot the thin client using the created USB thumb drive
  6. Use the menu on the display to restore the image

25 / Is NAT (Network Address Translation) supported when the 10ZiG Manager and the thin clients reside behind a NAT'd firewall/router?

Network address translation (NAT) is the process of modifying IP address information in IP packet headers while in transit across a traffic routing device. The 10ZiG Manager uses TCP and UDP ports on the network to communicate with the thin clients and using NAT would not work. If you use the cloud connector you will not need to NAT.

arrow pointing down arrow pointing up
1 / How can I setup the Tera2 to take me to the logon screen of my desktop rather than sign on automatically?

First step is to disable single signon... by adding a string entry "AllowSingleSignon" with a value of "false" to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Agent\Configuration on the VM that you want to assign a specific client.

This is done using regedit, or with a GPO. This can be done either on the source for a pool, an individual machine in a pool (but it will be overwritten with a recompose), or for a single non-linked clone vm in a pool. Create a AD user, depending on your client device's autologin requirements for the username naming convention, and then assign that user to that VM.

When the device logs in, it will get its assigned VM based on the username.(Make sure you only assign that user to a single pool/vm). Since single sign on has been disabled, it does not pass the view credentials to the VM... requiring the user to log in.

Then on the V1200 change the connection type to View Connection Server + Auto-logon

You will need an AD account that has rights to that desktop and also enter the pool name to select. The pool I used only has one desktop in it so this V1200 always connects to that desktop only.

17 / Which PoE Class and how much power consumption is required for the V1200-POE and 5900q series including PoE module?
  • The V1200-POE and 5900q series including PoE module falls into PoE class 4 (12.96W-25.5W). Although typical usage of the clients is significantly less (i.e. 5-7 watts), you should allow for 23W per client. This is due to initial power requirements, specifically where multiple monitors are attached and the client initializes and performs boot up.

This temp profile issue can cause missing ICONS on the desktop and loss of Windows 7 customized settings. Restarting or logging off and back on to Windows 7 does not resolve the issue. This temp profile issue rises because of a registry key problem.

To fix the Temporary Profile in Windows 7 Issue follow the steps below:

  1. Log in with temp profile.
  2. Start registry editor by typing regedit in find box in Windows 7.
  3. Navigate the following location in Windows 7.
  4. You will see similar keys under profile list with .bak difference, as shown below.
  5. The correct profile key is marked as bak. Currently your Windows 7 computer logged in with fresh profile with same key. So, rename the new profile key ( without extension .bak) and remove .bak from correct profile key. See below.
  6. Log off and back on with user name and password. You should get your icons and profile settings back in Windows 7.

16 / How can I get my ELO Touch Screen to work with the WES 7 build?

There are a couple of issues with Touch Screens in WES 7

If the touch screen requires a driver and does not take advantage of the native dll’s in Windows 7’s tablet pc support then it will work.

For example the DT Tablet 312 & 362 use the Penmount driver which works in WES 7.

If the touch screen does not require a driver, it will not work in our build of WES 7 even if the touch screen works in Windows 7. There is a component called Tablet PC support in Windows 7 and one of its functions is to provide touch screen support. This component cannot be put into the 10ZiG Technology WES 7 image because it requires a higher license.

ELO Touch Screens will not work in 10ZiG Technology WES 7 builds. We are checking with ELO to see if all models require this component and if they do, ELO will only work in XPe. Once we have a better understanding as to which Touch Screens will work with WES 7 we will provide a list of recommended touch screens.

20 / RDP is running extremely slow, is there anything I can do to improve the speed?

Disable the following services

  • IIS – Microsoft’s Internet Information Services provide the capabilities of a Webserver for your computer.
  • NetMeeting Remote Desktop Sharing — NetMeeting is primarily a VoIP and videoconferencing client for Microsoft Windows, but this service in particular is necessary to remote desktop access.
  • Remote Desktop Help Session Manager – This service is used by the Remote Assistance feature that you can use to allow others remote access to the system to help you troubleshoot problems.
  • Remote Registry – The capabilities provided by the Remote Registry service are frightening to consider from a security perspective. They allow remote users (in theory, only under controlled circumstances) to edit the Windows Registry.
  • Routing and Remote Access – This service bundles a number of capabilities together, capabilities that most system administrators would probably agree should be provided separately. It is rare that any of them should be necessary for a typical desktop system such as Microsoft Windows XP, however, so they can all conveniently be turned off as a single service. Routing and Remote Access provides the ability to use the system as a router and NAT device, as a dialup access gateway, and a VPN server.
  • Simple File Sharing – When a computer is not a part of a Microsoft Windows Domain, it is assumed by the default settings that any and all filesystem shares are meant to be universally accessible. In the real world, however, we should only want to provide shares to very specific, authorized users. As such, Simple File Sharing, which only provides blanket access to shares without exceptions, is not what we want to use for sharing filesystem resources. It is active by default on both MS Windows XP Professional and MS Windows XP Home editions. Unfortunately, this cannot be disabled on MS Windows XP Home. On MS Windows XP Professional, however, you can disable it by opening My Computer -> Tools -> Folder Options, clicking the View tab, and unchecking the Use simple file sharing (Recommended) checkbox in the Advanced settings: pane.
  • SSDP Discovery Service – This service is used to discover UPnP devices on your network, and is required for the Universal Plug and Play Device Host service (see below) to operate.
  • Telnet – The Telnet service is a very old mechanism for providing remote access to a computer, most commonly known from its use in the bad ol’ days of security for remote command shell access on Unix servers. These days, using Telnet to remotely manage a Unix system may be grounds for firing, where an encrypted protocol such as SSH should be used instead.

You may get this with bad memory. Always answer NO, shut down unit, put correct memory in unit and it will come up fine. If you answer YES, you will corrupt the DOM.

Oracle (Java) recently changed their Certificate Authority resulting in an message that the certificate cannot be verified. We will be updating XPe (WES09) builds with the new certificate but for now the options to stop the SSL warning are as follows:

  1. Remove it out of the registry HKLM\Software\Microsoft|windows\current version\run
    • Remove Sunjavaupdates this needs to be done to every machine. However, when a website uses java it may bring the error message back by adding the Sunjavaupdates back into the registry.
  2. Install the cert above new trusted root for UserTrust it is like a GoDaddy and GeoTrust - java.cer
    • MMC – computer account and import again to all thin clients
  3. If Java is not needed it can be removed from the thin client

PCoIP Host Software for Windows 4.3.1 only runs on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit.

PCoIP_Host_Software_for_Windows_64-bit

To run Host Software on another Windows OS, including XP, Vista, Windows 7 32-bit and Windows 8.1 64-bit, use PCoIP Host Software for Windows 4.2.2.

2 / Do PCoIP zero clients and host cards support VLAN tagging?

Teradici PCoIP zero clients and host cards do not support VLAN tagging. If an environment requires VLAN tagging, the implementation of a network device's (switch / router) VLAN options such as port based VLANs or VLAN tagging is recommended.

arrow pointing down arrow pointing up
3 / The message "No source signal" appears as an overlay at the start of a PCoIP session to indicate no video source.

There are three common causes for seeing this message in a host card environment:

  • Cabling
  • To troubleshoot, first check the DVI connection between the GPU and the PCoIP host card. If the cable(s) appears to be connected properly, confirm that there is a video output by connecting the DVI port of a monitor directly to the GPU's DVI output port. In order for this diagnostic step to be valid, you must not use any adapters (ie: DVI-to-VGA) between the GPU and monitor. Note: PCoIP host cards support DVI inputs only. They don't support VGA inputs, but can support VGA signals through DVI-I connectors. While host cards support DVI input only, VGA can still be supported on the client. See client product specifications to determine if VGA output is supported.
  • Software settings
  • This message may appear for a few minutes when the host PC/workstation OS turns off the monitor due to power management settings, screen saver timeout, or monitor shut down settings. The overlay appears shortly after the monitor is turned off and remains active for a couple minutes before it is eventually removed at which time the monitor is turned off.
  • No OS installed on the host
  • This message will appear if there is no operating system installed on the host PC.

4 / I am getting the message "No PCoIP devices detected. Please ensure the hardware is installed and the Host Driver Function is enabled on the PCoIP Host card prior to installing software.

This error can appear for the following reasons

  1. The PC does not have a PCoIP Host Card installed
  2. The "Host Driver Function" checkbox is not checked on the host SW configuration -> Host Driver Function page
In the second case you MUST reboot the PC and reattempt to install the software as directed below:
  • Go to the web address of the host card itself by entering it into to a web browser. Click on the log in button, go to configuration and then Host Driver function.
  • Check the box to “Enable Host Driver Function
