Collecting and Sending Logging Information
If you have Horizon View Client 2.2 or later, you can configure Horizon View Client to collect log
information and send log files to VMware for troubleshooting.
If Horizon View Client quits unexpectedly while log collection is enabled, Horizon View Client prompts
you to send log files to VMware when you relaunch View Client.
If you choose to send log files to VMware, Horizon View Client sends a message from the email account
configured on your device and attaches a GZ file that contains the last five log files. The file name contains a
time stamp, for example, Horizon_View_Client_logs_timestamp.log.gz.
You can also manually retrieve and send log files at any time.
Enable View Client Log Collection
When you enable log collection, Horizon View Client creates log files that contain information that can help
VMware troubleshoot problems with Horizon View Client.
Because log collection affects the performance of Horizon View Client, enable log collection only if you are
experiencing a problem.
Prerequisites
n
