A device attached to the system is not functioning

Posted: 26 Sep 2012 12:08 AM PDT

Hello

We use AppV 5.0 bèta in our test environment to deploy some applications. We use a virtual disk to store the userdata in.

We have a strange problem: often when logging on and trying to start a virtualized application, we get an error saying that a device attached to the system is not functioning. Logging off and on again solves this problem.

I have checked the eventlog, but I can't find an error message about this issue.

I have a screenshot attached (it's in dutch).

What could be the cause of this problem (I don't think it's really appv related, but I don't know where to start searching. Everything works ok, and the virtual disk is accessible and the user profile loads correctly).

Thanks for any advice!

Regards

Geoffrey

CentOS on XenServer 6

Posted: 25 Sep 2012 06:40 PM PDT

Recently I wanted to start playing with CloudStack. Doing so required a Linux VM on my XenServer. I decided to opt for CentOS 6.3 x64. From my previous work with Ubuntu I knew that switching to PV mode could lose me access to the console. So I started scouring the Internet in search for how to get VNC up and running for console access before…

An unexpected network error occured.

Posted: 25 Sep 2012 05:55 AM PDT

Hi guys ,

We're facing with issue.

Windows server 2008 R2. App-V client version - 4.6.1.30111

Some of users when launching application getting error message :

The application virtualization client could not launch "app name".

An unexpected network error occured.

Error code: 461759F-1420152A-0000003B.

This happens for only one application for several users BUT for only one application.

Next , centralized user profile must be deleted,and only after this , app will work fine for some time...

This happens few times a week..

Maybe someone had something similar ?

Becaues I was unable to even find this error code anywhere.

Thanks in advance.

Completely Virtualized environment using AppV

Posted: 25 Sep 2012 06:05 AM PDT

Hi All,

We are about to create a completely virtualized environment using AppV. And while performing that i came to know a specific senario i.e of upgrade.
Suppose we have 10 application which requires java as a prerequisite. If we installs java locally then there is no problem but if we virtualize java
as well the we have to perform DSC with all the 10 application. But if in future a newer version of java comes then how to about that? Do we again
need to virtualize newer version of java and again perform the DSC or there is other ways as well? If nyone has created such virtualized environment
please let me know.
