Manage Google Chrome with UEM - alternative way

$
0
0

The biggest issue with managing Google Chrome with UEM is that Chrome stores a lot of data in the %LocalAppData% folder, making it very time consuming to import and export that location.

 

Google provides an option to make Chrome store the browser user profile information in the Roaming AppData folder, to make it compatible with roaming user profiles.

This option stores most personal Chrome settings in a small 'profile.pb' file. This is a huge improvement over the original location, that can easily grow to 100's of megabytes.

 

This page describes the solution:

Using Chrome on roaming user profiles - Chrome for business and education Help

 

The site provides an ADMX template that can be imported in UEM 'ADMX based settings'.

You only need to enable the setting called 'Enable the creation of roaming copies for Google Chrome profile data'.

This will create the '%AppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\profile.pb' file, which we will further manage with a UEM config file (attached to this post).

 

The roaming user profile (profile.pb) contains information such as bookmarks, autofill data, passwords, per-computer browsing history, browser preferences, and installed extensions.

The downside it that the 'profile.pb' file doesn’t contain information about cookies, browsing sessions, cached or downloaded files, and other local browser instance and transient data.

 

I found out that capturing the 'Cookies' file from the LocalAppData folder, together with the 'profile.pb' file solves the cookies issue.

Attached is a UEM config file that you can use to test this new approach. It's not perfect yet, because some personal settings are still missing, but by including the correct specific files from LocalAppData we might get it to roam all settings, while still maintaining a small and fast UEM profile.

 

Please give this a try, and let me know what you are missing, or what files need to be included additionally to make this work.


Memroy requirement

$

Dear All,

 

I've a question about memory requirement of VMware vSAN.

 

We got a request like this:

 

“Each computing node must provide at least 256GB of memory capacity. For example, VMware vSAN, the memory capacity occupied by the storage service shall be deducted.  the memory capacity of the actual computing function must be at least 230 GB or more.”

 

“256GB” can fulfill vSAN storage service and computing function requirement (230GB) on the SKU?

How to calculate memory requirement of vSAN storage service?

If 256GB cannot fulfill the requirement, how many memory capacity is recommended for each vSAN Node?

Thanks!

Regards,

Osito

 

Import/Export EFI CentOS7-1804 Linux VMs not bootable

Brand new Linux CentOS 7 1804 virtual machine configured with EFI not BIOS. Using VMware OVF Tool 4.3 (10104578).

 

Exporting or re-importing the OVF results in a system which will not boot.

 

I'm aware of this

 

VMware Knowledge Base

 

Which it advises the issue is fixed in vSphere 6.5.x.

 

This is not fixed. Anyone have any ideas how I can import/export Linux VMs using EFI?

 

Cheers

Hi,

I am building a virtual machine using a customization spec in which I want to join the domain. If the command below requires the vm to be powered on, how can I get this done before the customization spec tries to join the domain? I need it to be on a particular network of course.

 

get-networkadapter $servername | set-networkadapter -networkname $netw -Confirm:$false -StartConnected:$true -Connected:$true

 

Thanks!

NSX Re-install - Agency already exists

Hi,

 

I am running into issues with a re-install of NSX-v.  I encountered issues when performing the initial install and I have had to reinstall from scratch.  I am now at the host preparation phase having re-deployed the NSX Manager and Controllers.  When trying to perform the host preparation phase I receive the following error:

  • Agency 57da0b8f-7db4-4e38-b488-be775a6e6dd6 already exist for cluster ************. Delete this agency from EAM database.

 

I am using vSphere 6.7 with NSX-v 6.4.3.  I have tried to find the the duplicate entry via the following the KB VMware Knowledge Base

 

However I cant find a duplicate / erroneous entry that is causing the issue.

 

I am not sure where to go next.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

NSX Upgrade Issue

Hi,

 

I've upgraded NSX Manager from 6.3.3 build 6276725 to 6.3.3 build 7087283. After the upgrade of NSX Manager  controllers disappeared from NSX Controller nodes in Networking & Security. When I login to NSX Manager via SSH and issue show controller list all command all three controllers are listed but the state is UNKNOWN. I tried to delete one controller using the API with DELETE /api/2.0/vdn/controller/{controllerId}  method and after that it's in the REMOVING state and I had to manually delete it from vCenter even though I tried to force delete it via API. Nevertheless the NSX deployment seams to be functioning with 2 controllers in UNKNOWN and one in REMOVING states. Any ideas?

Thanks

Hey all, I can't seem to find a clear answer anywhere, but what are the official transition paths for customers registering vcenter as an extension in vRO - mamas it pertains to the HTML5 client?

 

Is there an external plugin or will it simply be not included/deprecated from the HTML5 Web Client?

I am running HCIbench on a newly deployed homogeneous stretched cluster made of 14 cisco UCS c240M5 each with 2 disk groups each ( 400GB cache 5x1.9TB capacity all flash) w/ 2 10Gb VICs 2 fault domains (7 nodes on each site). Running on esxi 6.7. The site to site latency is between 1-3ms.

I am using the Easy run builtin test (56VMs total with 8vmdk-100ws-4k-70rdpct-100random-4threads) for vsan  and these are the results i am getting while testing a VM storage policy with PFTT=1, SFTT=1, Raid5. Deduplication and compression are enabled.

 

Are these latency numbers expected for this config/test.

EM 9.2.1 - not working movement of profiles

$
0
0

Hello!

We have:

Vmware View 7.3.1

UEM 9.2.1

 

For RDS unavailable Vmware Persona Managment. We are trying to organize the movement of profiles by means of UEM for the Windows 2012R2 RDS farm.

I configured paths for "Flex config files" and "Profile archives" in GPO. For the test, the path for the "Profile archives" is located on the local disk of the RDS server (c: \ profilefolder \% username%). The user has all necessary permissions to these paths (full rights). However, the profile files are not migrated - a folder with the username (% username%) is created and remains empty.

In FlexEngine.log there is nothing interesting.

What could be the problem? Or am I doing something wrong?

 

p.s. we do not want to use the standard Windows mechanism for roaming profiles

set host advanced settings from vco

$

Hi,

 

I want to set host advanced options with vco, but i cannot get it to work.
I took the powershell code, that is quite easy, and tried it the same way in Orchestrator.

 

Powershell:
$option = New-Object VMware.Vim.OptionValue
$option.key = $tgtkey
$option.value = $tgtvalue
$optarr += $option
$optMgr.UpdateOptions($optarr)

 

 

vCO code snippet:     
var aoValues = new Array();
configuredValue = oTargetHost.configManager.advancedOption.queryOptions("NFS.MaxVolumes");
System.log("Configured value is: " + configuredValue[0].value + ", Key: " + configuredValue[0].key);      
configuredValue[0].value="256";
aoValues.push(configuredValue[0]);
oTargetHost.configManager.advancedOption.updateOptions(aoValues);


I also tried to create a new OptionValue, like this:

 

var myVcOptionValue = new VcOptionValue() ;
myVcOptionValue.key="NFS.MaxVolumes";
myVcOptionValue.value="256";
aoValues.push(myVcOptionValue);

 

 

Both result in the same error message:
InternalError: a parameter was not correct.

 

How can I make this work?
