Jeff Harris Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I'm trying to find out more information about how to do the auto updates and register an installer package. The only information I have refers to a json file that you can download from Omnissa (VMWare) that goes along with the .exe file. For the life of me i cannot find the json file anywhere on the Omnissa site that this article refers to. Any thoughts or articles on how to actually accomplish this? Download the Horizon Agent installer and installer metadata files from the product download site. Look for the VMware Horizon download, which includes the Horizon Agent installer. The installer filename is VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-yymm-z.z.z-xxxxxxxx.exe, where yymm is the Horizon 8 release version, z.z.z is the internal = version number, and xxxxxxxx is the build number. The installer metadata filename is VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-yymm-y.y.y-xxxxxxxx-metadata.json, where yymm is the Horizon 8 release version, z.z.z is the internal = version number, and xxxxxxxx is the build number. In Horizon Console, navigate to Inventory > Horizon Agent > Registered Installer Packages to see the installer packages. On the Registered Installer Packages page, click Add. Specify the VMware-Horizon-Agent-x86_64-yymm-y.y.y-xxxxxxxx-metadata.json file to complete the agent installer package registration.

Employee Solution Joe Graziano Posted September 18 Employee Solution Share Posted September 18 If you go to the "VMware Horizon Standard and Enterprise Plus Subscriptions" 7 items down in the list then over to the Horizon version you have the "Horizon Agent Auto-Update Metadata File" there to download.

Jeff Harris Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 Seems like someone might want to make a blog about this, 😉. Would be nice to have a full article on the process of using this feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
