For what it's worth, I got a "compatible" problem and my only option was to go back to 12.
I did upgrade from 12 to 14 and a system I use to automatize guest operations based on the host running a java robot stopped working.
(positioning was ok, clicks would not work)
I followed all of the alternatives (update tools, try with/wo optimization, no overlay competing tasks, etc) to no avail.
Hello,
I've already tried a lot of different thoughts and a lot of research, nothing working in my case, so here it is.
I am using "vSphere client version 6.5.0.13000" and I came across an issue I don't understand.
I'm trying to increase the memory of a VM, from 8 to 16Go. The thing is, when validating, nothing happens, and the amount remains the same. Changing it on my others VMs works fine, but not this one.
Eventually, I get this error :
Unexpected token (END_OBJECT), expected FIELD_NAME: missing property '_type' that is to contain type id (for class java.lang.Exception)
at [Source: java.io.StringReader@3c1645b0; line: 54, column: 9] (through reference chain: com.vmware.vsphere.client.vm.VmConfigSpec["originalConfig"]->com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.vm.ConfigInfo["tools"]->com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.vm.ToolsConfigInfo["lastInstallInfo"]->com.vmware.vim.binding.vim.vm.ToolsConfigInfo$ToolsLastInstallInfo["fault"])
I'm posting here hoping someone has already encoutered a similar error. Is there a workaround ?
I'll be happy to provide more information about the VM, if it seems it is related to its configuration.
Thanks in advance for every thoughts you may have,
Cheers,

View Agent version is: VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-7.10.1-15247623, Horizon View version is: 7.10.0 build-14584133 -> could this be the problem?

You can use the Status parameter.

Sigh…. vCloud deployment keeps failing me whatever I try. I’m deploying the OVA appliance as primary small node, but it keeps failing the installation. After the OVA is deployed, I get the message: “No nodes found in cluster, this likely means PostgreSQL is not running on this node. Consult the management UI from another node where PostgreSQL is running. Otherwise, check /opt/vmware/var/log/vcd/vcd_ova_ui_app.log if you think this is an error.“.
When I check the logs, I find the following info:

So install was able to write something in the NFS share. Permissions on NFS should be correct I think.

Tried this with OVA VMware_Cloud_Director-10.1.0.4837-15967253_OVF10 and VMware_vCloud_Director-10.0.0.4649-15450333_OVF10.
This should be fine considering you have enabled timing profiler on all connection server and help desk licensing is enabled.
However I would still recommend to try with agent version 7.10.0 (same as connection server) using a test pool and see if it makes any difference.
а вы какие нюансы работы с web client имеете в виду?
Если говорить про standalone ESXi, то это называется host client и обновляется он по умолчанию вместе с гипервизором на современных версиях ESXi.
Если речь про какой-нибудь 6.0\6.5, то его можно было еще отдельно обновлять ESXi Embedded Host Client | VMware Flings
Добрый день!
Воспользуйтесь советом коллеги по подключению к ESXi хосту из workstation и загрузке файла через него.
Либо в workstation создайте новую ВМ с этим диском, далее с помощью vmware converter standalone сконвертируйте ее в ВМ для ESXi хоста.
HI,Guys!
Recently, I installed ESXi 6.5 U3 (downloaded from myvmware.com) successfully on server :Supermicro super server AS-4023S-TRT with AMD EPYC 7702 Processor.However it is not showing any network connectivity when I do the following configuration on the esxi host:
IP address assigned to the host:192.168.0.92
Subnet mask:255.255.255.0
Default Gateway:192.168.0.1
When I go for test management network,there is no successful pinging with the default gateway and all vmnics seem to be unconnected to network.Does this mean I will have to update the NIC driver?How can I do this?The biggest hurdle is to find out the right NIC drivers on the supermicro website.
Could anyone help me with this?
Hi
View doesn't log the X-Forwarded-For header .
There is no mention of logging the X-Forwarded-For header under horizon view documentation.
What type of connectors are these NICs? If they're SFP/SFP+ then you may want to check transceivers and if they're compatible with the hardware. Not all are.
Thank you so much!The adapters are visible and the status for them shows as 'Disconnected'!Please do find attached here the screenshot:
Also the management IP (IPMI) is not working.
Always consider this important rule: Operationality of virtual machines, and how the ESXi handles this workload is NOT related to their networking, including subnets, VLANs, domains, and so on. It means you can run multiple VMs that work on the different networks/domains on the same ESXi host. Computing, Networking, and Storage are separate management layers of the virtualization definition. Also ESXi doesn't interfere with the depth of a virtual machine guest OS and its operation, because they have separate workload layers (VMs and ESXi host) based on architecture.
You can run DCs that are working on different domain/forest and subnet/network ...
As I said I've already checked and done VMware Knowledge Base Step-by-step. And nothing has changed. It seems something wrong with PAM.
I agree, but I can't upgrade my PC anytime soon.
Why are you recommending the Appliance over vSphere for Windows? I prefer the latter, because I can use the vSphere machine for many other tasks, too.
I made everything work, finally, by uninstalling vSphere 5.1 and installing 5.0. This time Web Client isn't working, but non-web vSphere Client can connect to vCenter Server:
I'm impressed. However, I have got competely different issue now. I was forced to replace ESX 3.5 with ESXi 4. The host on above screenshot is under control of ESXi 4.1. It's refusing to boot with less than 1.8 GB of RAM. This forced me to reduce RAM assigned to vSphere VM to mere 2 GB, what made it barely usable.
I need to connect vSphere 5 to ESX 3.5 host. To do that, the License Server is required. I downloaded and installed it, but I don't know, how to generate license file for ESX.
So, my last question: how to generate lic file from serial key? All docs are telling about generating lic file for your bought products: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1005132. But ESX 3.5 is long time abandoned. It's serial is here: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/459811
Issue has been solved..... turns out the e-mail address that is asked for in the OVA wizard is a requirement. i left it blank because SMTP hadn't been setup yet and I wanted to enter the e-mail address later on.
Do you mean, it's not captured in any usable format for the Administration interface?
It can be seen with the SQL, and is logged correctly - We can obviously get the ForwardedClientIpAddress by using SQL or SIEM (as we do log correctly), but I think it would be handy in the View Administration interface, but definitely no way possible?
Can we look at this a different way then?
Is there a way to replace ViewClient_Broker_Remote_IP_Address with theForwardedClientIpAddress?
At the very least if the desktop can obtain the ForwardedClientIpAddress somehow, I could potentially script the variable, but I assume you are saying there is no record of it anywhere in the desktop?
