Click the Configuration Parameters button in Figure A-1 to display the configuration parameters shown in Figure
A-2.
Figure A-2 Configuration Parameters dialog
IMPORTANT: Not all configuration parameters can be added using the dialog shown above. Please see
VMware View documentation for more details. When adding Svga options, it is recommended that you do this
by manually editing the .vmx file.
The Configuration Parameters that affect RGS functionality are:
SMBIOS.reflectHost = TRUE
IMPORTANT: This parameter is needed for RGS versions prior to 5.2.0. It is no longer needed for RGS 5.2.0
and later versions.
This parameter causes the underlying hardware platform SMBIOS records to be mapped into the SMBIOS records
of the virtual machine. RGS requires the presence of HP-specific SMBIOS records to become active. This value
may be set using the GUI or by directly editing the .vmx file of the virtual machine.
usb.present = TRUE
This parameter causes ESX to materialize a USB hardware device for the virtual machine use. This is required to
support remote USB functionality for RGS. This value can only be set by directly editing the .vmx file of the virtual
machine. This value is not propagated by Virtual Center clone or template operations. The placement of this
variable in the .vmx file is critical for proper operation, and should be placed before the extendedConfigFile
parameter, which is near the beginning of the file.
NOTE: If you're using the VMware View USB implementation, the above parameter is not needed.
Svga.maxHeight = <max screen height in pixels>
This parameter tells the VMware virtual VGA device driver the maximum height of screen to support. This value
may be set by GUI or by directly editing the .vmx file of the virtual machine.
Svga.maxWidth = <max screen width in pixels>
This parameter tells the VMware virtual VGA device driver the maximum width of screen to support. This value
may be set by GUI or by directly editing the .vmx file of the virtual machine.
