Troubleshooting MED-V by Using the Administration Toolkit

Use the MED-V Administration Toolkit to troubleshoot certain problems in a MED-V workspace. The MED-V Administration Toolkit lets you access and configure event logs, restart or reset the MED-V workspace, and view the published applications and redirected web addresses in the MED-V workspace. You can also use the MED-V Administration Toolkit to open the MED-V workspace virtual machine in full-screen mode.

To Open the MED-V Administration Toolkit

Perform the following steps to open the MED-V Administration Toolkit:

  1. On the host computer that contains the MED-V workspace you are troubleshooting, open a Command Prompt window.

  2. Browse to %systemdrive%\Program Files\Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization.

  3. At the command prompt, type MedvHost /toolkit.

After the MED-V Administration Toolkit opens, you can use the toolkit to help resolve issues in the MED-V workspace found during troubleshooting.
