Redirecting Sun Ray sessions

Apparently I have to update my Sun Ray Server to 4.2 or at least apply some patches so that i can recieve audiio to my 2fs DTU's. I do not have a lab environment so I am wanting to move all of my users over to one server.
According to the doc's, I can do a UTSELECT cmd from the command line on the DTU and choose my server, however I don't know how to get to the command line on the DTU. Is there another way I can move/migrate all of the users off of one server without interupting? Is there a 'maintenance' mode I can put the server in or perhaps shutdown a service without hurting the users.
Thanks in advance!!

First you have to use the GUI Firmware, then you can set manually the network details via Pop-up GUI.

  • Sun Ray error when connecting to Oracle VDI - No Kiosk Sessions Available

    When the Sun Ray DTUs go to connect to the Oracle VDI cluster at times they will throw the error "Error starting Kiosk session: No Kiosk accounts configured." We have tried going through the steps to confirm that the Kiosk sessions are configured on the two secondary hosts but the problem persists. When the Sun Ray DTUs do connect they will work for a while and then when left idle for a period of time will loose their connection and be unable to restart the connection with the error mentioned. The Screen Blanking option on the Sun Ray DTUs is set to "0" to prevent them from going into power-save mode but this makes no difference. The Sun Ray DTUs are all updated with the latest GUI firmware and there are no custom options set in the Sun Ray Session Servers.
    The thing that bothers me the most is I have not seen any error messages in the logs. I will post up the logs as links in a follow-up post.
    Has anyone had any similar issues while connecting with a Sun Ray DTU?
    Currently we are running Oracle VDI 3.2.1 on the cluster.
    Here are the commands we used to reset the Sun Ray Kiosk accounts:
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskstatus -c
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm status
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm delete
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm create -l utku -g utkiosk -i auto -u –c

  • Sun Ray Server x64 or T2?

    Hi,
    I have been searching around looking for some advice/benchmarking for what hardware is best for Sun Ray servers. My plan is to use the Sun Ray VMware View Connector and so the Sun Ray server will only be managing the sessions rather than providing the desktop.
    Therefore, would a T2 system give more consistent performance than a x64 system? and, how many Sun Ray sessions could be expected to be managed by a T5120 or a X4100?
    Finally, is running the Sun Ray server in a VM a supported config?
    cheers,
    Simon.

    We have found that x86 series server far out strip the T series boxes for Sun Ray.
    A X4100 with 8GB RAM should be able to handle 100 odd sessions. We build for our Customers on a model of around 125 sessions per server. We used to use X4100 but have moved to X4140, if you bumped the RAM on these to 16GB you should get more.
    Sun Ray runs poorly under VMware and if you need to go down that route run lots of little Sun Ray servers with no more than 20 odd DTU per server.
    Hope this helps

  • Sun Ray workstations and Server Win2K.

    Hi guys,
    I wondering if you can help me to figure out how could I configur run Sun Ray sessions from the Server Win2K. I'm using a Server 2000 + Citrix Metaframe on it.
    Also I have 2 Sun Ray workstations that linked(by router) to an one small network with the server.
    I'll appreciate for any help or suggestions.

    I did not have any problems getting my test Sunray server running version 5 to access Citrix. However the issue we are having is getting the credentials passed through with the DOD CACs.

  • Sun Ray connector interface is invalid

    I think I have some kind of configuration problem with my Sun Ray server. When I try to run the utadm -A "I.P. address" command, it comes up at the end with a message about the "Sun Ray connector interface is invalid" or something like that. The problem seems to be with this because the Sun Ray server will not update the firmware on the Sun Ray Clients. Even using the utfwadm -A -e "MAC address" to force an update it just sets it up in the dhtptab.conf file with the macro to download the firmware but when I power cycle the Sun Ray client it does not update the firmware. The only thing I can think of is that it must have something to do with the "Sun Ray connector interface is invalid" error that is preventing it from updating.
    The DHCP server will also not update the "LeaseTime" nor the "LeaseNeg" options that I have configured.
    Can someone tell me how to get rid of the "Sun Ray connector interface is invalid" error and/or if this might be what is preventing my firmware updates to my Sun Ray clients?
    Thanks,

  • Solaris containers + sun ray server

    just some theoretical question...
    would it be possible to put a sun-ray session into a solaris container, stop it, move it to some other machine, and restart it there?
    never played with containers and maybe i am compleatly wrong here...

    well, i'd say that dhcp is not an issue. i am running srss without local dhcp and the clients in some other networks using other ip's/dhcp (i know -- unsupported config, but it has it's advantages).
    i've just read some docs about containers, and it seems, since opensolaris b36 it is possible to stop containers and restart them on some other node... but it seems that patchlevels and kernel needs to be the same... ...so it would not be possible to move container+srss, update server A, move container back and update server B.
    may you explain, in more detail, the CAM idea?

  • How can I redirect USB from Sun ray to Win2003 terminal server

    Hi
    I am running Sun Ray 4.2 in Solaris with SRWC 2.2 in a Kiosk mod to Windows terminal server 2003 , how can I allow users to use their USB divices from Sun Ray and appear automatically in their Windows desktop ..I try adding the following line to mikioskhdlr_win script
    UTTSCPARMS="-m -b -A 24 -r sound:high" - r disk:M=/tmp/SUNWut/mnt/$USER”
    but it did not work .. please help

    If you are using the USB Drive Daemon or manually specifying the mount then there are no issues with user access. That's only an issue with the the built in USB pass through included with SRSS 5 which is connecting directly to Windows and in essence the physical machine. The former is just mounting a network drive which is user specific.

  • USB Device Redirection with Sun Ray and Windows XP Desktops (vSphere)

    Hello,
    i use Sun VDI 3.0 (vda_3.0_amd64.zip) in our environment.
    All connected Sun Ray's use Windows XP Desktops from VMWare vSphere.
    Now i have some additional USB Devices that we will use with the Desktops.
    But i'm Newbie at this topic.
    On of these devices are a OmniKey - Cardman 3121 this is known to work (http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/sunray/usb/readers.jsp).
    But which steps should I do that it's work?

    OK, the last message here was February 2008; it is now July 2008.  I just noticed that Microsoft is supplying a 64 bit version of their Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 driver for Windows Vista (64 bit) at:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=4F68EB56-7825-43B2-AC89-2030ED98ED95&displa...
    I just talked to a Palm salesman yesterday and he said all their phones still will not be synchronized with any Vista 64 Bit OS; their literature recommends 32 bit only. 
    I am contemplating upgrading my Treo 600 to a Treo 750 with Windows Mobile 6 Professional.  I am trying to figure out how to synchronize the software before I purchase anything.  I think now that Microsoft has solved the problem, not Palm and nobody in Palm or my cell phone provider (Rogers here in Canada) knows this yet.
    Does anybody have any experience with this ongoing 64 bit Vista problem and the Treo 750. 
    Also if I get positive answers here, where do I go next to figure out how to bring over my Palm Treo 600  data.  Since the operating system is different, I think I am stuck with exporting my contact addresses to a csv file.  I do not know how I would recover my mail.  I have not been using Outlook, just PalmOneMail v1.02a.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Using USB printer on Sun Ray 2

    Can someone direct me to a document or explain how I can configure the Sun Ray Software to allow me the ability to print to a USB printer attached to a Sun Ray 2 thin client. I believe this is possibele using the USB redirection utility but only when connecting to Windows XP desktops. I see it's being done when connecting to Windows 2003 Terminal Server. Any help or info on this would be great.
    Thanks!

    Here is a repost of my article on the sun-ray users mailing list.
    Lars Tunkrans
    Wed, 27 Jan 2010 09:34:47 -0800
    This article is for using Solaris as the Sun Ray server.
    I have used a Sun-Ray local USB attached printer in two ways.
    Precondition1: The printer was using Postscript rendering.
    The printer had its own rendering engine.
    The printer was NOT a dumb windows-driver dependant printer.
    Precondition2 the user logging on needs to have the printer administrator RBAC role to be allowed
    to create /destroy printqueues.
    1) Printing from Solaris.
    Set up a solaris printqueue with
    lpadmin -p printername -v " sunray devicename" -I postscript -T PS -m printermodel
    This will use the solaris lpfilter mechanism to convert the printdata to postcscript protocoll.
    2) Printing from Windows.
    Set up a solaris printqueue with
    lpadmin -p printername -v " sunray devicename" -m printermodel
    Set up the windows printer with a working windows Postscript driver.
    The windows included hplaserjet-postscript driver works. for a hplaserjet printer.
    or any printer emulating the HPlaserjet like many Xerox printers do,
    This setup will generate the Postscript protocol on the windows PC , and it will merely
    "pass-though" the Solaris spooler without change.
    So if you need to print from both the SR server and the windows PC you need to define two spooler queues for each printer. Below are two scripts that have existed in various versions on sun-rays.org that I enhanced a bit and ran from the VDI superstructure to make it do what I wanted. For windows printing you then need to pass the printername as an argument to the "uttsc" startup command.
    uttsc ......... -r printer $printername .........
    # the SCRIPT "set-printer.sh" for printing from a unix desktop
    #!/bin/sh
    MACAddr=`ls -l $UTDEVROOT | sed 's/.*\.//'`
    PrinterName=$MACAddr
    PrinterPath=`ls /tmp/SUNWut/units/IEEE802.$MACAddr/dev/printers/* 2>/dev/null|head -1`
    if [ -n "$PrinterPath" ] ; then
    cat <<.>$HOME/.printers
    _default $PrinterName
    Message="Current Printer: $PrinterName"
    else
    Message="No printer assigned"
    fi

    if [ -z "$PrinterPath" ]; then

  • Bug or wrong configuration of the Sun Ray Server+DTU+17" and 24" screenres.

    I have 2 DTU, one has a 17" screen with a resolution of 1280x1024 and the other DTU has a 24" screen with a 1900x1200 resolution attached. The setting of the Sun Ray server is configured only that registrated cards, can make an kiosksession to VMware View 4.6.
    When I start the DTU's, there is nothing wrong. The correct screen resolution is displayed on the screen for both DTU's. When I put a smart card into the DTU that has a 17" attached, it's indicates the correct resolution. The problem starts when I hotdesk to the other DTU with the 24" attached to, the session what was builded on the 17" will be showed on the 24". So the the resolution is 1280x1024. With this action there's nothing wrong, because the kiosksession is made on the 17" and no disconnection is made, so this is a correct resolution at this point. When I pull the card out of the 24" DTU, the screenresolution will be still at 1280x1024. It's looks like the setting will be saved on the DTU. Only a restart of a DTU will turn back the good resolution.
    When I do the same as the case before, but only I start at the DTU with 24" screen the kiosksession will start at 1900x1200. When I hotdesk to the Other DTU the kiosksession is still at 1900x1200, but only this time when I pull out the card out of the 17" DTU, The DTU will give the right screen resolution of 1280x1024
    the DTU's are Sun Ray 3 Plus, it doesn't matter which DTU's I place, the problems seems like that the DTU will save the last screen resolution. I got 300 of these DTU's and try a lot of them, but still the same issue.
    Note: with each case explained in this thread, the kiosksession will be started at first time, the kiosksession is not builded yet or has been disconnected.
    This behaviour is with a standard installation and configuration of Sun Ray server software 5.1.2. No extra script is implemented. Also I tried the UTRESIZE script that I've found on this forum, but it didn't helped.
    Is this problem a bug (known issue) or is this a wrong configuration of me? This is a big issue for me

    I have also a lot of fun with different screens, so I walk the "hardwired" mostly when I run into my screen does not look like correctly.
    utresadm -a -c MAC -t default 1280x1024@60 ... and then this is nailed, whatever you do with this box. Very effective especially for beamers ...
    what you can set, utresdef is your friend, utresadm -p show all the devices overwritten in case you need to change for a new monitor. And finally utresadm -d -c MAC -t default clears the setting.

  • Sun Ray - How to get external USB Card Reader working

    Dear All,
    i have the following problem. Maybe someone could help me or give me a clue to solve it.
    SunRay Software 5 installed
    Window 2003 R2 TerminalServer
    Here my question:
    I use a kiosk session with a smart card to conncet to the windows server - works perfect.
    Login Screen and go.
    Now i have to have to authenticate myself with an external usb card reader and smart
    card (connected to the sun ray) to use a certain application on my win2003 server.
    Via the windows rdp session (from the laptops) everthing is ok. The information from
    the card reader is transferred to the server.
    If i use the Sun Ray nothing happens. So here is my problem:
    How do get the authentication information from the smart card to the server?
    Thanks in advance
    Best regards
    Hans-Peter

    Basically, reinstall the Boot Camp video drivers manually and if that doesn't work then go to the AMD/Radeon website and install the Windows drivers directly for your video card model.
    If you want to do a search you will find others that have pretty good luck doing it either way.

  • How can we get Sun Ray DHCP address in Windows XP?

    We need the DHCP address (served by Windows) of our Sun Rays as a variable in our Windows XP session (served by VDI 3 / vBox 2.0.10). Customer wants to use this for a windows script which maps the room printer to the Sun Rays Windows XP session. So the user can get always the room printer automatically mapped as the default and don't need to choice the right printer. How can we do this and will this work wor hotdesking too?

    currently you can not use SGD and Sun VDI on dual monitors. There is a Request for Feature Enhancement to provide this feature in a future version.
