Initializing the Cloud Pod Architecture Feature in Horizon 8

Use the lmvutil command with the --initialize option to initialize the Cloud Pod Architecture feature. When you initialize the Cloud Pod Architecture feature, VMware Horizon 8 sets up the Global Data Layer on each Connection Server instance in the pod and configures the VIPA communication channel.

Syntax

lmvutil --initialize

Usage Notes

Run this command only once, on one Connection Server instance in the pod. You can run the command on any Connection Server instance in the pod. You do not need to run this command for additional pods. All other pods join the initialized pod.

This command returns an error message if the Cloud Pod Architecture feature is already initialized or if the command cannot complete the operation.

Example

lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --initialize
