XenDesktop 5 - Power State shown as Unknown in Desktop Studio

Hello,

I have a small VDI deployment using Citrix XenDesktop 5 and Windows 7.  One of my machines shows all of the correct details in the Citrix Desktop Studio, and reports the power state as “On”.  The other 4 show the Power State as “Unknown”.  All 5 machines are clones of a single image, so I am not sure where to start troubleshooting this.

Thanks,

WEGIS

Is the Agent running correctly in the 5 machines? Seems like a communication issue between VDI clients and XenDesktop?

can the machines ping the XenDesktop server?

Users are connecting to the other 4 virtual desktops, so I assume that the agent is running OK.  

The machines can ping the DDC.  I have turned off the firewall on it.  
Check the Windows Event Logs on the desktops and DDC.  Hopefully some error or warning is being noted.
