Sun Ray Client and VDI 3.0

Hello,
I have a working VDI 2.0 setup and an evaluation VDI 3.0 setup. However, when I point my Sun Ray term, using the GUI firmware, to the VDI 3.0 server I don't get a login screen - just that its connected.
Am I missing something?

Hi again, I just replied to your other thread.
I was having the same problem, when I assigned the pseudo token ID to a virtual machine/desktop.
If that's the case, try unassigning it, and you should get the login prompt.

Sun Ray Clients Software

Hello,
What software must be installed in Sun Ray Clients?
No software is needed?
Thanks.

There is no Software installed in the client
The Client loads a Firmware via TFTP . The End User does not
interact with this Firmware. The firmware fills the same function as
the BIOS does on a PC. But there is normally no user configuration possible.
The only possible situation where a user can configure the firmware is when the Sun ray is used remotely over the internet with VPN, Then a special version of the firmware is used and the enduser has to configure the VPN parameters , since he is nolonger connected to the INTRA-net DHCP service.
All SOFTWARE for the Sun Ray solution is loaded on the Server.

Needs software to access pdf files on sun ray client

Needs software to access pdf files on sun ray client , with mozilla firefoX or Sea monkey as a browsers
Tried to install pdf getting error ,
Needs technique or technical troubleshooting steps to access pdf files on mozilla or sea monkey or other solaris compatible Browsers on Sun ray client

You can still install Acrobat Reader, Evince or Xpdf to read PDF files. But if you want that the PDF file should be displayed in a browser windows, then you can forget Evince in the previous list, or you can consider to use Firefox 19 or higher that incorpore a buid-in PDF viewer.

Sun Ray, windows & and USB card readers

Hi all,
I read, or was told that the new version of the SR software (version 5) should enable more USB devices to work in combination with Sun Ray.
We currently serve our users with windows via SunRay - and it works very well. The only issue being that we need to get usb card readers - such as the acr38 to work with SunRay. Until now this has not worked. Does anyone know whether this is currently possible or whether this should be possible using SR 5?
thanks and regards,
Paul

Hi,
Do you provide terminal server desktop or a VDI based 'XP' desktop to your users ?
the next early access release (EA2) will support additional USB support; it seems only for VDI based 'xp' desktops; so that might solve your USB card reader request if you provide XP desktops.
The current PC/SC release does support some kind of second card reader attached to the sunray. Never looked indepth into this feature but i did see it read the card from the additional reader with the added debug tools.
Do you actually need this second card reader? Maybe you could use the PC/SC passthrough to windows to read the your card in the windows backend losing the second card reader.
if all else fails you could try a network USB hub. This device is attached to the network and your reader is attached to the device. Then you use a client on the windows environment to connect to the device; hence connect to your USB reader. The client on the windows environment that works with the device i've tested was only able to run just once on a terminal server.. so this is not a very scaleable solution if you run terminal server.

Patrick

27D error on Sun Ray client

My Sun Ray setup was working before i tried to reconfigure the Admin Gui. Once the GUI changes were added i rebooted the server and the clients would not come up. Instead of booting, they display a 27D error along with an hourglass and a DHCP address. Can someone please tell me how to get them running again. Thanks.

Not to throw this way off tangent, but is the "requirement" for Internet Exploiter ... er ... Exploder ... er ... that MS security hole ... {grumble} ... is it technical or "just because"? As long as the page doesn't use ActiveX or other MS-proprietary code, it should run fine under Firefox or Mozilla.
Your response will deem whether or not we need to bring in the Spanish Inquisition. And nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Internet Explorer on Sun Ray Client?

Ok, I know it's sacralidge (sp?), but I'm planning a solution that would satisfy a requirement of using MS Internet Explorer browsers - possibly on a Sun Ray Server thin client environment.
The solution is a Hospitality focused in-room Kiosk project.
Can this be done?
Any tips would be much appreciated.
Thx!

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.

Keyboard layout and Sun Ray

Hi all,
We're using the Sun Rays in a VDI environment, but there is a mixture in keyboard layouts: qwerty and azerty.
The session detects the correct keyboard layout, but it doesn't pass it to uttsc.
Is there any way to detect the keyboard layout and pass it manually?

Wouter

Hi,
You can use this setting directly in the VMware guest:

Sun ray thin client

Hi ,,,
Suppose we have two servers with two different applications and one Sun Ray Server. How could we direct the Sun Ray Client Sessions to these two application servers simultaneousely??
Regards,
Basem

I'd look at logging in to the application servers individually, using ssh and then tunnelling the X display back to the Sun Ray client.
Something like ssh -X host1 on one terminal window and then ssh -X host2 in the other terminal window.
I think this may work. It does on Linux anyway.

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,

I have the same issue . . .
1. Sun Ray 5 (Sun Ray 4.2)
2. SRWC 2.2
3. Solaris 10 u9 X86 on two x2200
4. Terminal Server on Win2K3 R2 Standard x64 Edition SP2
I have a handful of users and they all logon the same way, which is to enter username & password then I have the following lines at the end of the users' individual .dtprofile file . . .
<begin snip>
DTSOURCEPROFILE=true
/opt/SUNWuttsc/bin/uttsc -b -m -O -u uname 192.168.100.29
exit
<end snip>
Of course 'uname' is actually the user name followed by the Terminal Server IP address and as you can see I am using the '-O' option, but every morning all the users on a server have their Sun Ray sessions reset and I find this in the messages file . . .
Mar 16 09:38:31 sunraya Sun Ray Connector proxy:[12941]: [ID 855542 user.error] Child closed socket prematurely, session shutdown
. . . . Using cron, I reset the Sun Ray service twice a day on both servers at 7AM and 7PM . . .
# cat /sunray-restart.script
# This is to restart SunRay 5 service due to
# what I think may be a memory leak that disconnects
# the SunRay Windows Connector every day
/opt/SUNWut/sbin/utrestart -c
echo "#" >> /var/adm/messages
date >> /var/adm/messages
echo "#" >> /var/adm/messages
echo " RESTARTING SUNRAY SERVICE " >> /var/adm/messages
echo "#" >> /var/adm/messages

. . . But this does not appear to having an affect.
I will be looking around the forums for any other bits of information about this. The "Known Issues" can probably be found in the Release Notes.

Is Sun Ray a suitable solution for system administrators?

My company is deciding if Sun Ray can be a viable solution for system administrators for additional level of security since Sun Ray clients are diskless...less worries about malware or virus...etc.
However, looking through Sun's available thin client machines, there is no selection of laptop form. As you can guess, sysadmins are mostly remote and on the go...it cannot be expected that they are always at their desks or homes to access the thin client machines. I understand the availability of the web client solution...however, have my doubts about that and how much would sysadmins actually embrace it.
On the other hand, the inability of copy & paste as they are currently doing with traditional thick clients can be problematic too. One use case is when they test and build config on their desktops (say notepad), then upload to server hosts...or opposite, when they need to download logs to their machines and investigate...
I am not going into questions about support of OS X and other tools sysadmins usually use...since the support of true remote access will be the biggest hurdle up front.
Any comments?

Hmmm. Very late to this conversation, but couldn't help to throw some change into the hat.
For casual use of light-weight, non-power hungry applications, running apps via SGD over a Sun Ray (soft client or not) is probably ok. But if you were to try to do this for normal users who need PC-like performance, you'd be delusional. Display information will travel over the network 3 times and you can't take advantage of any of the new, faster graphics capabilities of the newer Sun Ray's when you introduce SGD as the means to access Windows desktop applications.
To be explicit:
Sun-Ray -> Sun Ray Server uses ALP.
Sun Ray Server -> SGD uses AIP.
SGD Server -> Windows Server uses RDP.
If you deploy this widely, better go buy some stock in Cisco.
I'd use SGD only for remote PC/Mac/Unix users who need to bounce in from the wild west.
I'd use Sun Ray -> Sun Ray Servers + Windows connector (uttsc) for thin client access.

Monitoring Sun Ray Server health

I am interested in deploying Sun Ray Server as a component of a large VDI implementation. I want to be able to monitor the health of the Sun Ray Server software beyond the standard OS level stuff - number of concurrent Sun Ray Client connections for example. Is there an API (or some other mechanism) available for me to create an agent that can be monitored with standard monitoring software? Thanks!

Thanks for the info, however, I'm not looking for monitoring software - my organization already uses the IBM Tivoli suite quite successfully. I'm interested in more info on the specific Sun Ray APIs available to me to mine some health data. Thanks.

Cannot update firmware on Sun Ray 170

Hi all,
I need to update the firmware on a Sun Ray so I get the GUI firmware, as I need to enter the server IP manually.
I run this:
/opt/SUNWut/sbin/utfwadm -AaV -f /opt/SUNWut/lib/firmware_gui -u
and get the output:
CoronaP1 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP2 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP3 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP4 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP5 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP6 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
CoronaP7 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
SunRayP8 GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48
and then this:
/opt/SUNWut/sbin/utfwload -HalL
For this command I get the output:
Upgrading units to version GUI4.0_48_2007.08.01.15.48:
DISP User IP Address Model.Mac Firmware Version
3.0 ???? 192.168.201.230 OEMRayP7.0003bad74e7b MfgPkg_3.32,nocrypt-03,REV=2005.06.03.15.20
And the Sun Ray shows it firmware update icon for a second, and then display a pink/purple bar along the top of the screen, on causing the screen to refresh, by for example logging in, the pink bar goes away. The Sun Ray is left unupgraded however.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Garry

I have had no trouble in the past upgrading firmware.
After the initial utfwadm command I do a utfwsync. This will force a download of the firmware but will disconnect all users.
Then afterwards I check the firmware on the sun ray client with the usual ctrl-V and Pause key.

Forms Server - Sun Ray

Does anybody have tried Sun Ray clients ?
Can we have Forms Server serving it ?
What Netscape browser do they have ?

You can run on sun Ray. Just get the certified version of Oracle Forms for the solaris version and get started?
