Integration of VMWare view client

You wrote natively, do have something already like a command line?

No, I just assumed that this would be possible, but didn't want to go that way.

We are going to use that on a quite large scale, so this would be far from ideal.

Is this called VMware View? We had an add-on which is now integrated. Is it another product?

Hi,

yes, this is VMware view client. I think this is basicaly something like VMware Player but on a "professional" scale.

Have you tried the VMware View Client in the category Virtualization?

It's the client for Desktop Virtualization (VDI) with performance/bandwidth enhancements of the protcol to support thin clients and hardware interworking (sharing HW-features of Cliwent and Server)

The player is just a product to play downloaded (or with a real version like VMWare Workstation or ESXi created) VM.

Sorry about that, it's an add-on:

Shame on me!!

Thanks for that. We will look into it.

No problem it's my fault. To be honest, the vmware product line is a little bit confusing and I mixed-up this one with VMWare Remote Control.

Hello David,

I don't know who developed the plugin, so I just post my findings in hthis thread.

The plugin tries to find the VDI client in C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware View\Client\bin.

There is also a 64-bit version, which installs in C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Client\bin.

The plugin works, but can you add the (non-documented) switch -standalone as an option?

This allows multiple instances of the View client to be started next to each other.

See http://www.vmadmin.co.uk/vmware/53-view/326-viewclientmultiple for an explanation.

Regards,

Arjan
