Reboot.<BR /><BR /><BR />Vmware Tools were installed. Reboot.<BR /><BR /><BR />View Agent 3.0.1 was installed.<BR /><BR /><BR />We checked the VM status and it keeps showing "Waiting for Agent".<BR /><BR /><BR />Firewall Check on both ends. Vmware View - VM. No change.<BR /><BR /><BR />View Server has been rebooted. no change.<BR /><BR /><BR />Any other idea why the agent is not connecting as it should it is supose we get "Ready" instead of "Waitng for Agent."<BR /><BR /><BR />thanks a lot Thu, 27 Aug 2009 16:58:24 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-vmware/vmware-view-vm-waiting-for-agent/m-p/4487395#M14 Kensy2 2009-08-27T16:58:24Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-vmware/vmware-view-vm-waiting-for-agent/m-p/4487396#M15 Can you ping the desktop from the view server?<BR />Check the Windows Firewall on the client, if it's enabled then disable it and reboot the client.<BR />Also View 3.0.1 is now quite old, 3.1.1 is now available.
