You can use an exclusion list to specify the domains that Horizon 7 excludes from the results of a domain search.
A group of two Connection Server instances, CONSVR-1 and CONSVR-2, is joined to the primary MYDOM domain and has a trusted relationship with the YOURDOM domain. The YOURDOM domain has a trusted relationship with the DEPTX and FARDOM domains.
The FARDOM domain is in a remote geographical location, and network connectivity to that domain is over a slow, high-latency link. There is no requirement for users in the FARDOM domain to be able to access the Connection Server group in the MYDOM domain.
Display the currently active domains for a member of the Connection Server group.
C:\ vdmadmin -N -domains -list -active Domain Information (CONSVR-1) ============================= Primary Domain: MYDOM Domain: MYDOM DNS:mydom.mycorp.com Domain: YOURDOM DNS:yourdom.mycorp.com Domain: FARDOM DNS: fardom.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTX DNS:deptx.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTY DNS:depty.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTZ DNS:deptz.mycorp.com
The DEPTY and DEPTZ domains are trusted domains of the DEPTX domain.
To improve connection performance for Horizon Client, exclude the FARDOM domain from being searched by the Connection Server group.
vdmadmin -N -domains -search -domain FARDOM -add
The command displays the currently active domains after excluding the FARDOM domain from the search.
C:\ vdmadmin -N -domains -list -active Domain Information (CONSVR-1) ============================= Primary Domain: MYDOM Domain: MYDOM DNS:mydom.mycorp.com Domain: YOURDOM DNS:yourdom.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTX DNS:deptx.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTY DNS:depty.mycorp.com Domain: DEPTZ DNS:deptz.mycorp.com
Extend the search exclusion list to exclude the DEPTX domain and all its trusted domains from the domain search for all Connection Server instances in a group. Also, exclude the YOURDOM domain from being available on CONSVR-1.
vdmadmin -N -domains -search -domain DEPTX -add vdmadmin -N -domains -exclude -domain YOURDOM -add -s CONSVR-1
Display the new domain search configuration.
C:\ vdmadmin -N -domains -list Domain Configuration ==================== Cluster Settings Include: Exclude: Search : FARDOM DEPTX Broker Settings: CONSVR-1 Include: (*)Exclude: YOURDOM Search : Broker Settings: CONSVR-2 Include: Exclude: Search :
Horizon 7 limits the domain search on each Connection Server host in the group to exclude the domains FARDOM and DEPTX. The characters (*) next to the exclusion list for CONSVR-1 indicates that Horizon 7 excludes the YOURDOM domain from the results of the domain search on CONSVR-1.
On CONSVR-1, display the currently active domains.
C:\ vdmadmin -N -domains -list -active Domain Information (CONSVR-1) ============================= Primary Domain: MYDOM Domain: MYDOM DNS:mydom.mycorp.com
On CONSVR-2, display the currently active domains.
C:\ vdmadmin -N -domains -list -active Domain Information (CONSVR-2) ============================= Primary Domain: MYDOM Domain: MYDOM DNS:mydom.mycorp.com Domain: YOURDOM DNS:yourdom.mycorp.com
