The web portal for Virtual Workspace (http://vw.towson.edu) is not allowing people to log in. Engineers are working to resolve this issue.
In the meantime, we wanted to provide alternatives for accessing Virtual Workspace since this outage only affects the web portal. The VW/Horizon client software does not use the web portal and is not affected by this outage. The client is named “VMware Horizon Client” and is installed on all faculty and staff computers and some labs. It can be found in the Start menu on Windows computers and the Applications folder on Macs. If you do not have the VMware Horizon Client installed on your TU computer, it can be installed via Software Center (Windows) or Self Service (Mac).
If you would like to install the Horizon client on your personal computer, it can be downloaded from this link: https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/info/slug/desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_horizon_clients/5_0
Once the client is installed, click “New Server” and enter vwclient.towson.edu when prompted for a connection. This will provide access to all VW resources and a better experience than the web portal.
