Collect Logs to Send to Technical Support
You can enable logging and collect a log bundle to send to technical support.
To troubleshoot some issues, you might be directed to collect logs to send to technical support. Logging will
aect the performance of Horizon Client if a secure tunnel session is being used to connect to the remote
desktop. Be sure to turn the advanced logging feature o when logging is no longer necessary.
Prerequisites
Contact VMware technical support so that you can determine where to send the log les you collect.
Procedure
1 In Horizon Client, tap the Option menu in the upper-left corner of the menu bar.
If you are connected to a server, you can tap the Option menu in the upper-left corner of the desktop
and application selection window. If you are connected to a remote desktop or application, you can tap
the Option buon in the desktop or application window and tap .
2 Expand the Logging section and tap to toggle the Enable advanced logging option to on.
3 Tap Collect support information, navigate to the location on your device to store the log les, select the
directory, and tap Select folder.
For example, for convenience you might tap the Desktop item to save the logs in a folder on your local
desktop.
Horizon Client creates a folder named vmware-view-logs-timestamp in the location that you specied.
4 (Optional) To create a .zip le of the log folder before sending it to technical support, right-click the
folder and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder.
