* – If you are planning to use Virtual Iron, make sure that you install Java Runtime Environment on the same machine where 2X VDI Agent is installed.
* – The free version of ESXi does not have support for vCLI thus the connection broker will not work.
1 – To install 2X VDI Agent on a Linux VMware server please use the following instructions:
For Debian
- Download 2X VDI Agent for Linux from here and save it to a local directory.
- Ensure that VMware server is installed and running correctly on the local machine.
- Ensure that the VMware Vix API is installed (only for VMware Server v1.*).
- Run the debian package using the following command “dpkg -i packagename“.
For RPM
- Download 2X VDI Agent for Linux from here and save it to a local directory.
- Change directory to where the package is saved.
- If the client is installing first time: rpm -ivh 2xvdsagent.rpm
- If the client is upgrading: rpm -Uvh 2xvdsagent.rpm
- If the client is deleting the package: rpm -e 2xvdsagent
For Shell Script
- Download 2X VDI Agent for Linux from here and save it to a local directory.
- Change directory to where the package is saved and ensure that setup is executable (“chmod 777 packagename”).
- Ensure that VMware server is installed and running correctly on the local machine.
- Ensure that the VMware Vix API is installed (only for VMware Server v1.*).
- Run the 2X VDI Agent installation script.
2 – To install the 2X VDI Agent on a 64-bit VirtualBox server please use the following instructions:
- Start a new Command Prompt windows (“Start > Run > cmd”) and change the current directory to where you 2X ApplicationServer XG is installed (e.g. – “cd c:\Program Files\2X\ApplicationServer”).
- Run 2XVDSAgent.exe -u to uninstall the 32-bit 2X VDI Agent installed.
- Change directory to the x64 directory (cd x64).
- Run 2XVDSAgent.exe -i to install the 64-bit version of 2X VDI Agent.
3 – To install the 2X VDI Agent on OpenSuse 11.1 with XEN/KVM/QEMU please use the following instructions:
