Reading Time: 2 minutesAs written, VMware has release a week ago the new version of VMware View 5.0.1 (with the new build 640055), as also the new version of vSphere 5.0U1. Note that the VMware Composer remain the same 2.7.0 (build 481620) of previous version. As report in the VMware View 5.0 Installation Guide (page 10), the VMware Composer is compatible with vSphere 5.0 and later, so it is just a piece that will not need any upgrade. Actually the View documentation is not changes to reflect the new version, it remain a simple 5.0 version. So the […]

Reading Time: < 1 minuteKindle Fire is a tablet from Amazon, based on Android, that may become a competitor of the Apple iPad (considering also the interesting price). Although this tablet use Android, the recent new View Client for Android wasn’t included in the Amazon Android App Store. This lack as been correct in the last days, and now the new release 1.3 of the View Client, with PCoIP support, is available also for Kindle Fire. An alternative client (not strictly limited to VMware View solution) could also be the new release of Wyse PocketCloud (but actually still lack […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteAs written some days ago, VMware announced the new version of the Linux View Client with PCoIP support. Now the binaries are available for the download, actually only for the Ubuntu distribution: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/vmware-view-client There is also an interesting guide on how build a full client based on a live disto: Building an Ubuntu Live CD for VMware View Note that previously there wasn’t a public (and free) version of the Linux View Client with the PCoIP: the OpenSource vmware-view-open-client project still lack of this function (and also other functions, like USB redirection). But this does […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesAs described in the release notes, one of the new features of View5 is the certificate check from the View Client (similar as the certificate check of the vSphere Client): Updated client certificate checking for View clients – View clients now follow the well-known browser model for handling certificates, displaying errors detected in the certificate presented by View Connection Server, or in the certificate trust chain. Administrators can set the Certificate verification mode group policy to enforce strict certificate checking; if any certificate error occurs, the user cannot connect to View Connection Server. Alternatively, administrators […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesIn the previous post I’ve written about the upgrade of vSphere and View in the vSphere 5 scenario, but there are also other scenario to consider with a View environment. For example, recently a new version of vSphere 4.1 has been released (the Update 2 version) and probably most vSphere 4.1 administrator will apply this set of patches. But what will happen with an existing View infrastructure? Both View 4.6 and 5.0 were released before this patch. We have see the a major upgrade may broke the View functionality, but a minor upgrade? Usually the […]
