Vdi 3.1 automatic desktop logon with virtual box desktop provider

hi
is it possible to enable autologon to a desktop if the desktop provider is virtual box with virtualbox rdp as desktop protocol?
i only see the press ctrl alt delete window
thank you

Hi
vdi communicates directly with the virtual machine if rdp is usedwith VRDP the RDP client on the vdi/sunray server connects to the Console of the VirtualBox machine
with MS RDP the RDP client on the vdi/sunray server connects to the terminal services of the XP machine.
the virtual desktop which i have imported into vdi was configured with nat This doesn't matter. You are able to configure the network setting at the settings tab of the Pool. (host networking and windows RDP)
if i change the network from nat to hostbased network i'm not able to reach a network from this virtual machineIf you set it to hostbased network do you get proper TCP/IP settings in the XP machine?
must i change the vbox host network config to use hostbased network instead of nat?If you mean change the template; you don't because this could be set with settings on the pool tab.
if you mean change something on the Box hosting the VirtualBox vm's; you don't need to configure anything special to allow it to use hostbased network.
You're VM's running on this box should receive proper TCP/IP settings though.
To debug this create a smartcard to logon to Solaris, with the Sunray management interface :1660 and try to RDP to one of the VM's to see if terminal services are running and firewall settings allow you to connect to the VM from Solaris. You could try this from any other host/laptop/fatclient if you network setup allows you to connect RDP ot the VM's ips.

Logon with Virtual Smart Card Breaks Run As Administrator

I've been testing the Virtual Smart Card (VSC) capability on a Surface Pro 2 and Dell Latitude E7240.
This may be by design however, I have noticed that if I login using the VSC I am unable to use "Run As Administrator" functionality - for example:
Command Prompt from Start Screen
Task Manager
I'm prompted for a username / password or the VSC PIN.
In my environment the Administrative user does not have a VSC, so it is a username/password. When using Run As Administrator I'm therefore always entering a username and password.
Once the credentials are entered the prompt goes away but the application never runs.
If I lock/unlock the session and login using username/password for the non-admin user, instead of the VSC and PIN, I am able to elevate using Run As.
I have noticed that I can use the workaround as specified in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2013976
To work around this issue, start the application using the Run as different user right-click context menu option and select the smart card reader of choice.
Click Start, select Programs, and locate the shortcut item in the Programs menu or the application folder for the application you want to run
Hold down the SHIFT key while you right-click the shortcut item, and select Run as different user.
Enter the username, password and the domain name or choose a smart card logon.
Seems a little odd... maybe I am missing something. If anyone can assist that would be great.
Thanks, Chris

Problems with getting internet explorer on my mac with virtual box 4.3.20, who can help?

This is what I did:
1) downloaded and installed virtual box 4.3.20
2) copied
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | IEVMS_VERSIONS="11" bash
in the Terminal (for IE 11 only). I got this from the link: Internet Explorer for Mac the Easy Way: Run IE 7, IE8, & IE9 Free in a Virtual Machine
3) that is where things went wrong, see attached image for the error I get (after a long time) in the Terminal
Tried it twice but every time the same problem.. I hope someone can help me!

The error means that your download session was interrupted. There could be a problem with your Internet connection or a problem with the remote server providing the download. If you otherwise have no trouble with Internet, I suspect the later.
But why would you want to bother downloading someone's virtual machine to run MS Internet Explorer? Not only is there a real security risk since you don't know what the VM or installation script is doing, but if the VM is running MS Windows, then the person providing the software is breaching software distribution and copyrights laws, and so will you, using the software.
Btw, have you read any of the comments? Do you really want to download 20GB? (nonsense)
If you need IE and VirtualBox, simply create a new VM and install MS Windows using a regular copy and enter your license code. There is also no need to install different versions of IE, since IE can be configured to run as a prior version.
However, there is no need to install and run MS Windows to run IE. There are products that provide free Windows API to let you run PC applications as they were Mac applications without installing Windows, e.g. Wineskin, Wine Bottler, or commercial solutions, such as Crossover.

How to use Application Designer with virtual box vm's

hi all,
I could use some help please.
I have everthing installed and working on the VMs but now I want to use Application Designer but I must be doing something wrong.
I installed the Oracle client on windows and created tnsnames.ora. I can't connect to the database from windows to vm.
I have some questions which might help me fix this.
The directory that was mentioned to put tnsnames.ora in (C:\app\Mike\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin\) was not there so I had to create it. Was that what I was supposed to do or did the install go bad?
For the windows host file what should the ip addresses be? I used the IP Addresses of the eth1 network interface from both guests which I created.
As far as the PeopleTools on windows I used PT 8.52 but with no patch will that work even though the VMs are PT 8.52.06? So if I need the patch in order for App Designer to work how can I get the patch I think I need an account to do that. I think it mentions in the OVM doc that they are included somewhere so should I use those instead?

<strike>With virtualbox vm's I assume that you mean the OVM templates converted to virtualbox.</strike>
Didn't notice the OVM category :)
Which Oracle Client installer did your use?
You could use the following download from MOS for Database 11.2..02 (since Peoplesoft database is also delivered at 11.2.0.2)
Patch 10098816: 11.2.0.2.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
From the patch set download only p10098816_112020_platform_4of7.zip, which is your database client. The rest you will not need to be able to use Application Designer and Datamover.
Once downloaded start the installer and choose option Runtime (do not choose Instant Client or Administrator).
Now that you have your connectivity, you can start the PIA-AppBatch vm.
switch to psadm2 user and go to $PS_HOME.
Here you will find two files
toolsclient.zip (PeopleTools 8.52, use client only)
toolspatchvcd.zip (PeopleTools patch 8.52.06, , use client only)
Copy these files to your windows workstation and install them in that order.
Copy the tnsnames from the Database vm to your oracle client install dir network\admin dir and you should be ready to start using Application Designer/Datamover.
For more detailed information see the post from Nicolas:

How to install windows remote desktop services with Microsoft Remote desktop License

Hi
we have plane to install a server in our company, having windows server 2008 R2 - 64 bit. and also buy 10 RD cal.
now how can install RD call after installing windows OS.
kindly help will highly appreciate.
Arvind

Hi Arvind,
On your server, using Server Manager, you need to install RD Session Host and RD Licensing Role Services at minimum. After install you should set the licensing mode to match the type of RDS CALs you purchased as well as Specify the licensing server
name (itself). You may do this in RD Session Host Configuration (tsconfig.msc) or via group policy.
Next in RD Licensing Manager you need to Activate your licensing server. Before you can install your purchased 2012 RDS CALs you will need to contact the Clearinghouse and have them downgraded to 2008. Please have your licensing number,
authorization number, licensing paperwork/emails ready before you call them.
Locate the Microsoft Clearinghouse Telephone Number for Your Country or Region

Virtualization of OMV3 in Virtual Box == HOWTO

Hi,
I published a solution on my company's blog in order to test OVM3 with virtual box, for example if you don't have servers :
*[http://blog.easyteam.fr/2012/01/03/oracle-vm-3-0-reussir-la-virtualisation-doracle-vm-dans-virtualbox/]*
These are the big steps :_
1) I get an .xml file information on a physical CM server with the command : ovs-agent-rpc discover_hardware > info.xml OR python /opt/ovs-agent-3.0/do_rpc discover_hardware > info.xml
You will find a working info.xml file at the bottom of my blog's.
2) Install the OVM manager in a virtual server in Virtual Box
3) Install the VM servers in a virtual server in Virtual Box
4) On the virtual servers, modify the following lines in the file /opt/ovs-agent-3.0/OVSDiscoverHardware.py (at the bottom of the file) :
result = response.replace(whole_marker, scsi_response)
lock.release()
f = open('/opt/ovs-agent-3.0/info.xml','r')
result = f.read()
f.close()
return result
5) On the virtual servers, copy the file info.xml we generated in the /opt/ovs-agent-3.0 directory
6) On the virtual servers, execute the following commands :
service ovs-agent stop
rm OVSDiscoverHardware.pyc
rm OVSDiscoverHardware.pyo
service ovs-agent start
7) now you can discover the VM servers from the VM Manager.
this intent article is pedagogic only. It is obvious we must not use this proceed for production or for performance tests._

This is only required for Oracle VM 3.0 -- also, your process will only work for a single Oracle VM Server. If you wanted to create a pool of servers, there are additional steps that you would need to do in order for the discovery process to see them as unique entities.
Also, the XML file is probably quite invalid for a VirtualBox guest, and may lead to additional issues/problems as you're referencing hardware that might not exist inside the VirtualBox guest, or PCI devices that could be in a different place.

Using NW65OSSP8a.ISO should work but check that your virtual machine is
booting from the CD/DVD drive rather than the hard disk (which won't
have been initialised thus not bootable).
Note that whilst you can use NW65OSSP8a.ISO to install NetWare 6.5 you
will need to "swap" CDs during the install (to NW65PRODSP8.ISO) which
can sometimes be a pain with virtual machines. I suggest that you
download and use NW65SP_OVL_DVD.iso[1] instead which is a combined DVD
of the contents from both NW65OSSP8a.ISO and NW65PRODSP8.ISO and won't
need swapping during install.
HTH.

Virtual box vs Oracle Vm

Hi,
I want to know the pros and cons for tehse 2 products whicg Oracle owns
If i have to use Virtual box as it has features like snapshots - using physical serial port of the server on the VM guest and using USB's , what are the pre - requisites to use it
Is this as stable as Oracle VM and a freeware?
Can i install server OS as guests with Virtual box.
Like Oracle VM has - VM server which has OEL as base and is managed by Oracm VM manager - how is the setup for Virtual box.
Thanks.......

Virtualbox is an application, similar in configuration and setup like VMware, VirtualPC and other VM applications that need a host Operating system. Oracle VM server has it's on OS and usually gets installed on a bare metal computer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization
http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/virtualization/oraclevm/061976.html
http://blogs.oracle.com/virtualization/2009/05/oracle_vm_blog_basics_of_oracl.html
It seems for the purpose of testing you might be able to install it as a guest OS in VMware Fusion and maybe Virtualbox:
http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=31357
From what I understand, Virtualbox is not a certified platform for Oracle Enterprise Linux and running Oracle database. However, Oracle VM and VMware ESX are certified platforms for OEL when installed directly on the computer hardware.

Windows 10 Virtual Box - Hyperthreading Not Supported on PC

I am trying to install Windows 10 in Virtual Box on my HP Pavilion DV6 running Windows 7 Home Premium x64. I set up the Win10 virtual machine following these instructions: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_install/how-to-install-windows-10-developers-preview-in/e98dd450-02d2-4519-b6a3-6743bedcf777
However, I am receiving the following error: 'VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Certain guests (e.g. OS/2 and QNX) require this feature and will fail to boot without it.' When I click continue, the VM provides the following

After some further research, I found that I need to enable virtualization and hyperthreading. I downloaded Speccy and determined that my PC is capable of virtualization, and it was already enabled; however, hyperthreading is not supported. I have been hearing
good things about Windows 10, and I should really like to give it a test run. Is the error with Virtual Box or Windows 10 or Windows 10 running in Virtual Box? Is there anything I can do to make it work? Thanks for any help.

Any reason why you would not consider dual boot Win 7 and Win 10 TP ?
I had an Acer Aspire laptop running Win 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit. I dual booted with Win 10 TP. That's starting from build 9841 to 9926. I dual booted twice and I had no problem doing it.

RDS 2012 - Virtual desktop collection with powershell and custom answerfile fails on VDI deployment

Hi Guys,
I try to deploy a new virtual desktop collection with Win8 VDI's (pooled/managed) based on a custom answer file. Everything needs to automated so working with the server manager is not an option, that's why the answer file is needed.
The lab environment is based on Windows Server 2012 and Win8 Enterprise only. So functional level etc. is off course Windows Server 2012.
I Use the following command:
New-RDVirtualDesktopCollection `
-CollectionName "Pooled Managed Win8" `

-OU "VDI" `
-ConnectionBroker "RDSCB01.lab.local" `

Hi Bartsp34ks,
I'm trying to make a powershell script like yours.
But at some point I receive this error:

VDI 3.0 with Patch2 - Virtual Box 2.0.10 - Host Networking

Hi Guys,
I have got following setup at a customer site:
Solaris 10 U7 : Sun VDI 3 Server
NIC0 - 192.168.100.xx network - sun vdi3.0 All-in-one configuration is installed here
NIC1 - 192.168.34.xx network - windows xp template is bound to this NIC (bridged)
NIC2 - 10.10.11.xx network - windows 7 template is bound to this NIC (bridged)
When I boot those template on VBox manually - I do get correct ip from correct NIC.
I have checked the .xml config files for xp and template which does point to NIC1 & NIC2 respectively.
However, when I upload them to VDI and start cloning..the clones come out on 192.168.100.xx network.
Logically - they should have come out on the same network as their respective templates - which is not happening.
I know this feature is there with VDI 3.1 EA - however, this is a production system so cannot really use it !!
Is it even possible with VDI 3.0 to have different pools on different network? Virtual Box 2.0.10 limitation?
Regards,
Hardik

Hi Hardik,
Wai is correct, VDI 3.0 allows you to specify a single NIC for each VirtualBox host in a Desktop Provider, navigate to:
Desktop Providers -> YourVBoxDesktopProvider -> Host -> Host Details (Click VirtualBox host hyperlink)
This page provides a drop-down with each plumbed NIC on this particular host. By default the first NIC is selected. Navigate to each VirtualBox host in your Desktop Provider and ensure you have selected the correct NIC and click [Save].
Now enable Host Networking in your Pool -> Settings.
All desktops registered/started from this point forward will use the specified NICs. Any Desktops already registered/running on a VirtualBox host will need to be either Shutdown or Powered-Off via the VDI UI and restarted.
Can you confirm that you have followed these steps? I have a similar setup working with various NICs for Host Networking.
If these steps still don't work, what does 'ifconfig -a' executed on your VirtulaBox host show? When you launch the VirtualBox UI and navigate to the networking section of a virtual machines settings, what Host Interfaces are listed there?

Manybe, you can try the security forumn. More appropriate for this question.

RDS 2012-PUBLISING REMOTEAPPS WITH VIRTUAL DESKTOP SESSION

Hello, I deployed a RDS 2012 VIRTUAL DESKTOP SESSION FARM.
Is it possible publish a REMOTEAPPS with Virtual Desktop Session?, I only find information with Remote Desktop Session
Thanks
Regards

Hi,
Seems this is not the possible scenario for deployment, we need to have Session based deployment as both virtual desktop session and session based deployment differs from other.
Thanks.
