Hypervisor connection state to “Unavailable”. Certificate mismatch canĪlso cause the Broker to change the power states to “Unknown” and To be updated on all the DDC’s on the Site. If the Certificate is updated on the VSphere server the same needs It needs to match with the BIOS file of the VM on the hypervisor to be managed properly by DDC’s on the Site. The UUID/Machine ID of the VM can be obtained by running “Get-BrokerMachine” cmdlet from any of the DDC’s in the site. The broker service must communicate to the Hypervisor using the VM/Machine ID It has many subcomponents, one of which is the Hosting Management The Broker service runs on every Delivery Controller in the site Understanding of the Broker > Hypervisor communication: Note: It might be necessary to restart the Citrix Broker Service on all DDCs and/or restart the virtual machine. The power state must now match the state indicated in the hypervisor. This corrects the HostedMachineId for the problem machines using the ID that was retrieved from xdhyp.txt.Ĭheck Desktop Studio or Desktop Director and refresh the list of results. Run the following command to change the XenDesktop Database’s record for the machine ID to match the Hypervisor’s Machine ID: Set-BrokerMachine -MachineName ‘MyDomain\MyMachine’ -HostedMachineId. We can also verify the same by Browsing the below tables in SQL site database and confirming the values.ĭesktopUpdateManagerSchema.ProvisionedVirtualMachine » VMId ».IDs are different.+ Correct “Id” is from the Step-1 and incorrect value Step1, and the “HostedMachineId “ from this step, You’ll find that the The “HostedMachineId “ from the output.+ Now comparing the “ID” from This identifies the machines that have the unknown power state.+ Note PSParentPath : 1\Citrix.Hypervisor::XDHyp:\Connections\XenServer PSPath : 1\Citrix.Hypervisor::XDHyp:\Connections\XenServer\PVS0003.vm

Search for the name of the Virtual Machine, in this case, the name of the Virtual Machine is PVS0003. Open that file and press Ctrl+ F or Edit > Find. The xdhyp.txt output file contains the correct machine IDs from the hypervisor. To display all machine IDs of the virtual machines from the hypervisor.Īsnp Citrix * $ErrorActionPreference = Continue Get-ChildItem -Path XdHyp : \ -force -recurse | ? | Out-File – Filepath c: \ xdhyp. Open DDC using the PowerShell console and run the following commands Warning! Back up the XenDesktop database before completing these actions. Tests on all your storage resources in hosting tab in studio and make Restart “citrix broker service” and “citrix host service” services. Server shows state as unavailable, login to that delivery controller and PreferredController name and State parameters in the output. Output shows all your hosting connections. Run below command on your delivery controller:

Is to try enabling and disabling maintenance mode on the hosting url in If your hypervisor environment doesnt have any issue, quick solution Has any issue from contacting the vcenter, it will report this VDI

When citrix tries to power on a VDI, it should be brokered through aĬitrix delivery controller (Lets say DDC1). Users try to login to their VDI, it throws an error. Logs show that citrix powered off these machines. Issue: Some of the citrix VDIs are powered off in vcenterĪutomatically.
