Release date: August 13th 2024
Welcome to my Omnissa Horizon series. In this session I will describe how I upgraded my Horizon Desktop Recording Server to v. 1.11.0. I start out by downloading the installation media from Omnissa Customer Connect
As always when upgrading Horizon, before I start upgrading my Desktop Recording Server, I verify that I have a valid backup and document my settings. I start the upgrade by first verifying the installed versions from Control Panel
Next, I login on the Desktop Recording Server and launch the downloaded executable to do a manual upgrade.
I launch the Horizon Recording server installation wizard, Next…
I confirm the installation path, Next…
I’m ready, Install…
Once the installer finishes, click Finish…
After the installation is done, I can verify in Control Panel the installed version and finish off by doing a reboot. Once rebooted I log back in and verify functionality in the VMware Horizon Desktop Recording server UI.
This concludes my session about upgrading the Horizon Desktop Recording Server to v. 1.11.0. I can now proceed with upgrading the Horizon UAG servers, covered here: Horizon – Upgrade Unified Access Gateway to v.2406
