APM :: VMware View :: Blast HTML5
I'm trying to get the APM functioning with VMware View Blast client - and I am having quite the time. I have tried the iApp (1.5) but haven't been able to get that to function either. At the moment, I have a manual configuration based-off of the deployment guide. The deployment guide says to create a forwarding virtual server, and the iApp does the same thing. Neither of which seem to be working for me. So with the forwarding VS above created… I can log-in fine, the webtop displays, the RDP link I have works great... the Blast HTML5 link... not so much. If I click on the VMware View desktop shown above, it brings me to the following: The error shown above is thrown-around a lot by View, so it’s hard to say what the real problem is. I’ve seen that error displayed for straight-up communications issues in the past… which I think this is. If I do a tcpdump on the BIG-IP, I can see it trying to connect to 8443, but it cannot connect (SYNs… no SYN/ACKs). 11:27:30.022625 IP x.x.x.10.28862 > x.x.x.252.8443: Flags [S], seq 2246191783, win 4140, options [mss 1380,sackOK,eol], length 0 out slot1/tmm0 lis=/Common/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-https Source is the floating IP, destination is the VS. I know 8443 is listening on the VMware View server because I can connect to it locally. And I know the VMware View server knows how to get back to the F5 because it populates the webtop with my available desktop(s) shown above. I tried converting the forwarding VS to standard, assigned a pool, etc… and it still did the same thing. SYNs… no SYN/ACKs. What might be telling though is the lis= above. It lists my main virtual server with the APM policy assigned. That makes me think though… Why is it trying to connect to that VS and not the forwarding VS? The forwarding virtual server is a better match no? In any event, yeah if the virtual server isn’t listening on 8443, of course it won’t reply back (my thought-process anyway). So I figure… welp, why not just try an “any” port VS… yeah not so much. If I manually remove the :0 and submit, it loads the same error about the certificate. Nothing shows-up in tcpdump trying to connect to 8443 either - so, a step back. If anybody happen to have any ideas for me, I would be really appreciative. Thanks!
