NOTE TLS 1.2 is enforced by default in the vRealize Operations for Horizon Adapter 6.2. This means
that the Adapter cannot communicate with older Desktop Agents running with TLS 1.0 . For example,
vRealize Operations for Horizon Desktop Agent 6.1. VDI Pools/RDS Pools/Apps running with older
desktop agents will not be monitored by default. To monitor pools running with older Desktop agents,
administrators have to log on the vRealize Operations Manager collector node and explicitly add
enforcesslprotocols =false to /usr/lib/vmware-
vcops/user/plugins/inbound/V4V_adapter3/work/msgserver.properties file. Horizon Adapter instance
has to be restarted. Broker Agent and Horizon Adapter instance pairing may be required.
