Administration

Procedure
1 Create or edit the locked.properties file in the TLS/SSL gateway configuration folder on the
Horizon Connection Server or security server host.
For example: install_directory\VMware\VMware
View\Server\sslgateway\conf\locked.properties
The properties in the locked.properties file are case sensitive.
2 Add the following line to the locked.properties file:
gatewayLocation=value
value can be either External or Internal. External indicates that the gateway is available
for users outside the corporate network.
Internal indicates that the gateway is available only
for users inside the corporate network.
For example: gatewayLocation=External
3 Save the locked.properties file.
4 Restart the VMware Horizon Connection Server service or the VMware Horizon Security Server
service to make your changes take effect.
Disable or Enable Horizon Connection Server
You can disable a Connection Server instance to prevent users from logging in to their virtual or
published desktops and applications. After you disable an instance, you can enable it again.
When you disable a Connection Server instance, users who are currently logged in to desktops
and applications are not affected.
Your Horizon 7 deployment determines how users are affected by disabling an instance.
n If this is a single, standalone Connection Server instance, users cannot log in to their desktops
or applications. They cannot connect to Connection Server.
n If this is a replicated Connection Server instance, your network topology determines whether
users can be routed to another replicated instance. If users can access another instance, they
can log in to their desktops and applications.
Procedure
1 In Horizon Administrator, select View Configuration > Servers.
2 On the Connection Servers tab, select the Connection Server instance.
3 Click Disable.
You can enable the instance again by clicking Enable.
