Turn on Logging for USB Redirection

You can use USB logs to troubleshoot and to determine the product ID and vendor ID of various devices that you plug in to the Mac client.

Procedure

  1. On the Mac client, use a text editor to open the config file in the ~/Library/Preferences/Horizon View/ directory.

  2. To set the log level for USB redirection, add the view-usbd.logLevel parameter to the config file.

    For example:

    #[or info, debug, error]. Info level by default.
    view-usbd.logLevel=trace
