e In the Value data text box, type 1 to enable start session scripting and click OK.
You can type 0 to disable this feature. The default value is 0.
f (Optional) To delay the StartSession response by Horizon Agent, add a second DWORD value to
the Configuration key called WaitScriptsOnStartSession.
A WaitScriptsOnStartSession data value of 1 causes Horizon Agent to delay sending a
StartSession response and fail if the scripts do not complete. A value of 0 means that
Horizon Agent does not wait for the scripts to complete or check script exit codes before sending
the StartSession response. The default value is 0.
6 Set a registry value to specify timeout values in seconds rather than minutes to prevent scripts from
timing out.
Seing this timeout value in seconds enables you to congure the VMware View Script Host service
timeout value in seconds. For example, if you set the VMware View Script Host service timeout to 30
seconds, you can ensure that a start session script either nishes running or times out before a View
Connection Server timeout occurs.
a Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\ScriptEvents.
b Add a DWORD value called TimeoutsInMinutes.
c Set a data value of 0.
7 (Optional) To enable the VMware View Script Host service to time out the start session script, set a
timeout value.
a Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\ScriptEvents\StartSession.
b In the topic area, right-click the Default (@) key and select Modify.
c In the Value data text box, type the timeout value and click OK.
A value of 0 means that no timeout is set.
8 Exit the Registry Editor and restart the system.
Sample Start Session Scripts
These sample start session scripts illustrate how to write environment variables to a le, test the timeout
functionality, and test a non-zero exit code.
The following sample Visual Basic script writes all the environment variables provided to the script into a
le. You can use this sample script to see example data in your own environment. You might save this script
as C:\sample.vbs.
Option Explicit
Dim WshShell, FSO, outFile, strOutputFile, objUserEnv, strEnv
strOutputFile = "c:\setvars.txt"
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.fileSystemObject")
Set outFile = FSO.CreateTextFile(strOutputFile, TRUE)
outFile.WriteLine("Script was called at (" & Now & ")")
Set WshShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
Set objUserEnv = WshShell.Environment("PROCESS")
