Displaying the First User of a Machine Using the -R Option
You can use the vdmadmin command with the -R option to nd out the initial assignment of a managed
virtual machine. For example, in the event of the loss of LDAP data, you might need this information so that
you can reassign virtual machines to users.
N The vdmadmin command with the -R option works only on virtual machines that are earlier than View
Agent 5.1. On virtual machines that run View Agent 5.1 and later and Horizon Agent 7.0 and later versions,
this option does not work. To locate the rst user of a virtual machine, use the Events database to determine
which users logged into the machine.
Syntax
vdmadmin -R -i network_address
Usage Notes
You cannot use the -b option to run this command as a privileged user. You must be logged in as a user in
the Administrator role.
Options
The -i option species the IP address of the virtual machine.
Examples
Display the rst user who accessed the virtual machine at the IP address 10.20.34.120.
vdmadmin -R -i 10.20.34.120
Removing the Entry for a View Connection Server Instance or
Security Server Using the ‑S Option
You can use the vdmadmin command with the -S option to remove the entry for a View Connection Server
instance or security server from the View conguration.
Syntax
vdmadmin -S [-b authentication_arguments] -r -s server
Usage Notes
To ensure high availability, View allows you to congure one or more replica View Connection Server
instances in a View Connection Server group. If you disable a View Connection Server instance in a group,
the entry for the server persists within the View conguration.
