Requirements

Requirements represent the minimum quality of a package that is acceptable. When a package version has failed requirements, the package version requires fixing and/or response by the maintainer. Provided a Requirement has flagged correctly, it must be fixed before the package version can be approved. The exact same version should be uploaded during moderation review.

Notes

Notes typically flag things for both you and the reviewer to go over. Sometimes this is the use of things that may or may not be necessary given the constraints of what you are trying to do and/or are harder for automation to flag for other reasons.

Hi Mods,

This package seems to be reliably checking and self-updating from its source via Github actions.
You can check it out at https://github.com/tomgrice/au-packages/actions

If you need me to make any adjustments, please let me know. Otherwise it's most likely good for approval.

Many thanks
Tom

gep13 (reviewer) on 08 Nov 2021 07:21:15 +00:00:

Can you please remove the update.ps1 file? This should not be included in the package.

Also, the PackageSourceUrl is intended to point at where someone can find the source files for the package, i.e. the nuspec, the chocolateyInstall.ps1 file, etc. Can you please update this, assuming you have a repository for this package.

tomgrice (maintainer) on 20 Nov 2021 19:22:44 +00:00:

Hi gep13

Both this package (nice-dcv-server) and nice-dcv-client have since updated. In the new version I have updated with these changes (update.ps1 is not included, and PackageSourceUrl links to my github repo containing the nuspec files etc.

These will automatically update this way going forward. I can update this previous version but will have to edit and push it manually.

Thanks
Tom

flcdrg (reviewer) on 27 Nov 2021 04:36:03 +00:00:

Let us know what you want to do. You can push this version again to resolve the issues, or we can reject this version if you don't want to worry.

We've found nice-dcv-server v2021.2.11190 in a submitted status and waiting for your next actions. It has had no updates for 20 or more days since a reviewer has asked for corrections. Please note that if there is no response or fix of the package within 15 days of this message, this package version will automatically be closed (rejected) due to being stale.

Take action:

  • Log in to the site and respond to the review comments.
  • Resubmit fixes for this version.
  • If the package version is failing automated checks, you can self-reject the package.

If your package is failing automated testing, you can use the chocolatey test environment to manually run the verification and determine what may need to be fixed.

Note: We don't like to see packages automatically rejected. It doesn't mean that we don't value your contributions, just that we can not continue to hold packages versions in a waiting status that have possibly been abandoned. If you don't believe you will be able to fix up this version of the package within 15 days, we strongly urge you to log in to the site and respond to the review comments until you are able to.

chocolatey-ops (reviewer) on 01 Jan 2022 04:40:50 +00:00:

Unfortunately there has not been progress to move nice-dcv-server v2021.2.11190 towards an approved status within 15 days after the last review message, so we need to close (reject) the package version at this time. If you want to pick this version up and move it towards approval in the future, use the contact site admins link on the package page and we can move it back into a submitted status so you can submit updates.

Status Change - Changed status of package from 'submitted' to 'rejected'.

Description

NICE DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol that provides customers with a secure way to deliver remote desktops and application streaming from any cloud or data center to any device, over varying network conditions. With NICE DCV and Amazon EC2, customers can run graphics-intensive applications remotely on EC2 instances, and stream the results to simpler client machines, eliminating the need for expensive dedicated workstations. Customers across a broad range of HPC workloads use NICE DCV for their remote visualization requirements. The NICE DCV streaming protocol is also utilized by popular services, like Amazon Appstream 2.0 and AWS RoboMaker.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

What Is NICE DCV?

NICE DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol. It lets you securely deliver remote desktops and application streaming from any cloud or data center to any device, over varying network conditions. By using NICE DCV with Amazon EC2, you can run graphics-intensive applications remotely on Amazon EC2 instances. You can then stream the results to more modest client machines, which eliminates the need for expensive dedicated workstations.

* How NICE DCV Works
To use NICE DCV, install the NICE DCV server software on a server. The NICE DCV server software is used to create a secure session. You install and run your applications on the server. The server uses its hardware to perform the high-performance processing that the installed applications require. Your users access the application by remotely connecting to the session using a NICE DCV client application. When the connection is established, the NICE DCV server software compresses the visual output of the application and streams it back to the client application in an encrypted pixel stream. The client application receives the compressed pixel stream, decrypts it, and then outputs it to the local display.

* Features of NICE DCV
NICE DCV offers the following features:

Shares the entire desktop — Uses the high-performance NICE DCV protocol to share full control of the entire remote desktop.

Transport images only — Transports rendered images as pixels instead of geometry and scene information. This provides an additional layer of security as no proprietary customer information is sent over the network.

Supports H.264-based encoding — Uses H.264-based video compression and encoding to reduce bandwidth consumption.

Supports lossless quality video compression - Supports lossless quality video compression when the network and processor conditions allow.

Matches display layouts — Automatically adapts the server's screen resolution and display layout to match the size of the client window.

Supports multi-screen — Lets you expand the session desktop across up to four monitors.

Adapts compression levels — Automatically adapts the video compression levels based on the network's available bandwidth and latency.

Enables collaboration — Provides dynamic sessions that support multiple collaborative clients. Clients can connect and disconnect at any time during the session.

Supports multiple sessions per server (Linux NICE DCV servers only) — Supports multiple virtual sessions per Linux NICE DCV server to maximize cost savings.

Supports GPU sharing (Linux NICE DCV servers only) — Lets you share one or more physical GPUs between multiple virtual sessions running on a Linux NICE DCV server.

Supports USB, smart card, and stylus remotization — Lets you use your peripherals in a NICE DCV session just like you would on your local computer.

Supports audio in and out, printing, and copy and paste — Lets you perform these key actions between the session and your local computer.

Supports file transfer — Lets you transfer files between the session and your local computer.

Provides an HTML5 client - Offers an HTML5 client that can be used with any modern web browser on Windows and Linux.

Supports modern Linux desktop environments — Supports modern Linux desktops, such as Gnome 3 on RHEL 7.
