Creation and deployment

What do I do if cloud computers fail to be created?

Problem description

A cloud computer fails to be created in the WUYING Workspace console.

Cause

If a large number of users attempt to create cloud computers in the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console at the same time, a queuing mechanism is triggered. If the cloud computer is not created within 1 hour, a message indicating that the creation fails is displayed in the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

Solution

In this case, you can release the failed cloud computer and try again. If you do not release the failed cloud computer within seven days, WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) automatically reclaims the cloud computer. You are not charged for the failed cloud computer.

What do I do if a cloud computer remains in the Registering state?

Problem description

A cloud computer remains in the Registering state.

Solution

Can I migrate a cloud computer from the China (Hangzhou) region to the China (Beijing) region?

No, you cannot migrate a cloud computer from the China (Hangzhou) region to the China (Beijing) region. Cross-region migration of cloud computers is not supported.

How do I quickly copy a cloud computer?

To quickly copy a cloud computer, perform the following steps:

  1. Log on to the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computers.

  3. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

  4. On the Cloud Computers page, find the cloud computer that you want to copy, click the ⋮ icon in the Actions column, and then select Create Image to create an image of the cloud computer. For more information, see Create an image.

  5. After you create the image, create a cloud computer template based on the image. For more information about specific operations, see Create a cloud computer template.

  6. After you create the cloud computer template, use the template to create a cloud computer. In this case, the new cloud computer is the same as the source cloud computer. For more information, see Create a cloud computer.

Users and assignment

Why is the user list empty when I create a cloud computer?

If no user is displayed when you create a cloud computer, you do not create any user. You can create users based on the user account type. For more information, see Create a convenience user or Create, modify, and delete AD users.

Can I assign a cloud computer to multiple end users?

Yes, you can assign a cloud computer to multiple end users. However, only one end user can connect to the cloud computer at a time. For more information, see Assign cloud computers to end users.

What do I do if no cloud computer is displayed on the WUYING client of an end user?

If no cloud computer is displayed when an end user logs on to a WUYING client, perform the following steps to check whether you have assigned a cloud computer to the end user:

  1. Log on to the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computers.

  3. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

  4. Select Username from the search drop-down list and enter the username of the end user and press the Enter key.

    • If a cloud computer is assigned to the end user but no cloud computer is displayed, check whether the ID of the office network (formerly workspace) in which the cloud computer resides is correct when the end user logs on to a WUYING client.

    • If no cloud computer is assigned to the end user, assign one. For more information, see Assign cloud computers to end users.

What do I do if an end user cannot create folders or files in the root directory of the C drive on a cloud computer?

Problem description

An end user that is granted the local administrator permissions wants to create a folder in the root directory of the C drive on a Windows cloud computer in a shared cloud computer pool (formerly desktop group. However, a message appears indicating that the access to the folder is rejected.

Causes

By default, the system prohibits end users to create files or folders in the root directory of the C drive on cloud computers in a shared cloud computer pool.

Solution

Perform the following steps to remove the restriction:

  1. Log on to the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computer Pools.

  3. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

  4. On the Cloud Computer Pools page, find the cloud computer pool (formerly desktop group) based on the pool ID provided by the end user.

  5. Click the pool ID and then the Command Execution Details tab.

  6. On the Command Execution Details tab, click Send Remote Commands.

Applications and peripherals

What do I do if an end user is prompted to enter the username and password of the administrator when the end user installs applications on a cloud computer?

When an end user attempts to install applications on a cloud computer, a dialog box appears, indicating that the end user must enter the username and password of the local administrator. This issue occurs because the account that is used by the end user does not have the local administrator permissions. In this case, you must grant the permissions. You can choose one of the following methods to proceed on different console pages:

  • Manage User page

    1. Log on to the WUYING Workspace (Pro Edition) console.

    2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Users & Logons > Users & Organizations.

    3. On the User tab of the Manage User page, find the username of the account and choose one of the following methods to grant the required permissions:

      • Click the 修改.png icon in the Local Administrator column, select Yes in the dialog box that appears, and then click Confirm.

      • Select the check box of the username in the first column, choose More > Configure Local Administrator, select Yes in the dialog box that appears, and then click Confirm.

    4. Restart the cloud computer.

  • Cloud Computers page

    1. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computers.

    2. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

    3. On the Cloud Computers page, find the cloud computer that you want to manage, click the ⋮ icon in the Actions column, and then select Send Remote Commands.

    4. Run the following command based on the OS of the cloud computer.

      • Windows cloud computer

        Set the Command Type parameter to PowerShell and run the following command:

        net localgroup administrators "Username" /add
      • Linux cloud computer

        Set the Command Type parameter to Shell and run the following command:

        #!/bin/bash 
        echo "ecd\\\Username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL #SET_BY_EDS" >> /etc/sudoers 
        Note
        • Replace Username with the username used by the end user.

          After the end user logs on to the cloud computer, open Command Prompt. The end user can launch Run Command window by pressing the Windows+R shortcut keys and running cmd. Then, the end user needs to run the whoami command. The returned string is the value of Username.

        • If the end user is still prompted to enter the administrator password on the Linux cloud computer after running the preceding command, the end user can perform the following steps: run the sudo su command to switch to the root user, run password root to modify the password, and then install applications.

    5. Restart the cloud computer.

What do I do if a USB device that is connected to an on-premises terminal cannot be used on a cloud computer?

You can perform the following steps to resolve the issue:

Warning

If an end user uses a Windows cloud computer, drivers cannot be installed in the temp directory. If drivers are installed in the directory, the drivers are automatically removed the next time the end user starts the cloud computer. As a result, USB devices become unavailable.

  1. Check whether USB redirection is enabled. For more information, see Peripheral control.

  2. If the end user wants to use the USB printer or webcam that is connected to the on-premises device on the cloud computer, check whether printer redirection and webcam redirection are enabled. For more information, see Create a basic policy.

  3. If the end user uses UKey devices, check whether the required drivers are installed.

  4. Contact the end user to perform the following steps to check whether the USB device blacklist and whitelist are configured on the cloud computer:

    Procedure: In the upper-right corner of the card display page of cloud computers on the WUYING client, click the 个人中心1.PNG icon, choose Settings > Peripherals, and then configure the blacklist and whitelist.
