Hyper-V 08 R2 Planning Guide for XenDesktop 5.6 - Now available -

A key advantage of XenDesktop is that it works with three of the most common virtualization products on the market today ' hui - Citrix XenServer, Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware vSphere. However, each of these has a hypervisor architecture and different features. Since each XenDesktop design will vary depending on the selected Hypervisor, we created three separate planning guides

  • CTX134944: XenDesktop Planning Guide - Integration with Microsoft Hyper-V
  • CTX132110 planning Guide XenDesktop - integration with Citrix XenServer
  • CTX132166 planning Guide XenDesktop - integration with VMware vSphere

It has been a while since the first planning Guide XenDesktop for Hyper-V was released and we learned a lot of things right now. That's why Ed Duncan and I have just completed a complete rewrite of the Hyper-V Planning Guide (CTX134944) with the help of Alex Balcanquall, Michael Cooper, Tony Sanchez and Frank Anderson. In the new version, we have added and revised a number of key design decisions for Hyper-V, including :?

  1. What Hyper-V edition should I choose The advantages and disadvantages of each issue are discussed and recommendations are provided on the editing should be used to host XenApp servers, virtual desktops and infrastructure servers.
  2. How many physical networks do I need to join my hosts? providing details on typical physical demands networks for Hyper-V host that supports XenDesktop including recommendations on the separation of traffic and networks should be associated.
  3. What virtual machines to be hosted on a failover cluster? Guidance is given on the basis of whether virtual machines are infrastructure servers, workstations dedicated, workstations pooled or XenApp servers.
  4. Should I enable dynamic memory? The planning guide will explore the benefits to enable dynamic memory and to provide recommendations on how to optimize this technology.
  5. Should I use Provisioning Services (PVS) or Machine Creation Services (MCS) with Hyper-V? The Planning Guide also highlights important considerations when choosing between Provisioning Services or Machine Creation Services.

Sometimes it can be difficult to know which option to choose for each design decision. That is why we have included a table at the beginning of the document describing our recommended defaults for each decision. The recommendations will not be right in all situations, but it is a great place to start and you can refer to the relevant design decision sections for more information.

We have also provided high-level implementation of recommendations in the annex to help ensure that you have completed the work in the right order and do not miss a critical step. Where appropriate, we have also provided links to Citrix and Microsoft whitepapers / blog posts so you can dig deeper for more information

A new PC management approach

1:32 PM Add Comment
A new PC management approach -

The traditional PC management has focused on the use of basic tools for agents to support the PC. up client-side software based tools Agent or "agents" within the OS on endpoint devices to manage the entire lifecycle of the PC beginning of the end of life. This approach often uses multiple agents to manage, patch, update, backup, recover, secure and migrate PC.

For many midsize businesses, IT resources can be a challenge and they do not always have the staff, expertise or the tools they need to deploy larger PC management solutions and more complex in their environment. agent-based approaches can provide a simple way to manage PC and became the de facto approach to PC management. However, sometimes this approach is not the right fit and other ways to manage PC without the overhead of a complex management system should be explored.

Today, the client virtualization solution XenClient provides medium-sized businesses a new approach to PC management. This segment of the market has not always access to the entire broader tools to manage PCs efficiently such as encryption software, backup software and recovery of image management tools and software patch management.

XenClient does all that and improves the manageability, reliability and PC security through a type 1 hypervisor that runs under the operating system:

Image management

XenClient centralized one-to many image management

  • XenClient is hardware independent, allowing iT administrators to easily deploy an image in gold for thousands of PCs, regardless of the hardware and provider type.
  • Any changes or golden image automatically migrate all workstations XenClient users.

Patching and updating

XenClient offers fail-safe patching and updating with the possibility of "undo" changes

  • XenClient has 100% success rate in correcting, updating and installing applications.
  • Moreover, the changes can be canceled immediately (via the 'snapback').

PC migration

XenClient migrates everything necessary to bring them instantly productive users

  • One-click provisioning of centralized image means that iT admins can easily provision new or existing users (PC for lost / stolen or virus) to new PC and get them immediately productive users.
  • No user data or customization is lost during the migration of PC, because the images are centrally managed and safeguarded manner.

Endpoint Security

XenClient handles security below the operating system by

  • type 1 hypervisor XenClient completely insulates and protects the design of corporate data by running key security features such as disk encryption, lock time-based, and remote wipe in outside the operating system.
  • management Granular policy can selectively block access to USB devices, optical drives and networks.

Backup and Recovery

XenClient backup automatically and quickly retrieves user workstations

  • user data, profiles, preferences and other settings are saved automatically in the background with little disruption to the user.
  • users can quickly retrieve their jobs from their backups unattended IT through simple self-catering service.

in the end, everyone benefits XenClient as it reduces the cost of PC management for the company, provides a superior user experience and frees IT to spend time on providing value for the company. If you want to know more about a new approach to managing PCs, XenClient give it a try and see how it can drastically increase the manageability, reliability and security of your PC.

Discover a New Take on Radical collaboration at Synergy Barcelona

Discover a New Take on Radical collaboration at Synergy Barcelona -

Hi, my name is Jon Froda, and I am the co-founder of Podio, the collaborative platform. I have always believed that people should be empowered by working tools that really work like they do . That's why we started to Podio, to help people achieve more together, with less unstructured emails and scattered documents and without rigid, expensive software.

Podio booth Citrix Synergy

Whenever I meet people who use Podio and hear how they work is always an amazing experience, so I'm looking forward particularlylooking Synergy Barcelona. From Wednesday, October 17 to Friday, October 19 many members of the Podio team and I will be there, and we'd love to meet you. If you are new to Podio, we would like to show you a more effective way to collaborate in the cloud.

Meeting and talking to people about how they work has been at the heart of building Podio since he was only three guys in a basement in Copenhagen. When we created our first prototypes, we organized workshops with people working in all kinds of industries to find out how we can help. They said that most large systems, expensive software they were using had not been flexible enough to suit dynamic teams and companies. Therefore, they preferred to use spreadsheets, documents and email that de facto their tools, because they were easier to create something akin to the way they thought about their flow job. Workers do not want to adapt to the way a rigid software system worked

However, this created more than a few problems together :.

  • silos that make it difficult to understand what people are working on
  • A completely unstructured way communication
  • No where to find the knowledge and resources to do the work

We knew there had to be a better, more dynamic and effective to get the work done. Our goal was to provide everyone with tools that truly fit their work processes, without the need for technical expertise or IT resources to obtain them. At # 23 demonstration station in Citrix Booth we will be waiting to show you how Podio solves these problems and allows you and your team to collaborate more effectively - if you manage projects, track prospects, providing software, marketing campaigns, you name

Together we will create one! Podio App in five minutes, without a line of code in order. Podio Apps are the tools to do the job on Podio; they are also flexible and easier to create than spreadsheets, but they are dynamic, social and rich media. Besides being great for storage, sorting and tracking data, they combine with social activity streams to give teams collaborators in real time overview of progress and a place to discuss the work in hand . Think Lotus Notes combined with Facebook and you're not far.

Podio Since launching in March 2011, more than 40,000 companies have jumped on board to replace their separate project management software, enterprise social networks and CRM systems. We even held a world tour and meet-ups with thousands of people to hear how they use Podio, and it is fantastic to once again hit the road and bring the show to Synergy.

In addition to helping the Podio team in our demo station, I will be hosting a discussion session on Wednesday 17 October, 17: 30-18: 15 in room 113 give a full demonstration of the power of Podio. With me will be our guest of America's Educational Services, which will also show how they have innovated with Podio

However, you should not expect to meet us -. Podio you can try for free and start today!

Calendar No charge Application Compatibility Trial for the application migration initiatives - Even Windows 8 -

This week at Citrix Synergy and Summit, Citrix announced a new version of the migration software 'AppDNA applications that includes an expanded free trial with application testing and modeling effort for an unlimited number of applications. The new news service pack also includes early access features for compatibility testing applications for the new Microsoft Windows 8, Internet Explorer 10 and Windows Server 2012 versions. The new AppDNA 6.1 SP1 is available today via the AppDNA trial or for existing customers via APPDNA MyCitrix.

Compatibility Test applications for an unlimited number of applications

Whether you start a proof of concept for a migration from XP or a pilot project virtualization of XenDesktop, you must start by sizing the compatibility of the application portfolio. With the new trial Citrix AppDNA software, application compatibility tests for 10, 100 or even 1000 of your most important business applications can now be sampled with AppDNA trial. In addition, the trial AppDNA offers a taste of the powerful AppDNA application of sanitation information for 10 applications (MSI 5, 5 web applications)

Look closely at the screenshot here (click to enlarge ). - It is showing the application compatibility of a sample set of 27 applications for a company looking to migrate from Windows XP to Windows 8. On the left side, the test report AppDNA shows that, before any restoration application status, 44.4% of applications will be a green light for migration - they should not have large application compatibility problems. On the side of the right hand, the graph shows after taking measures applying appropriate corrective measures, 81.5% of applications can be a green light for the deployment.

AppDNA application compatibility estate view report
unlimited import application shows the current status of the application portfolio and the work of application compatibility required to move to a new technology, such as Windows 8

AppDNA the test report also shows the types of application compatibility problems in this sample set of applications. Now you know the level of difficulty in the consolidation application. Use this information to plan schedules, personnel and training needed to resolve application compatibility issues. (See previous blog: Staffing Application Compatibility Properly Projects: Gut Feel or Data Driven)

In addition, as part of the trial AppDNA no cost, companies can use the calculator to AppDNA effort to model the time, cost and personnel necessary to solve specific problems application compatibility in their application portfolio. (See previous blog :? How budget for application compatibility) See changes to your application migration plan if you add more people to the project or if your deadline is suddenly three months earlier than expected. Best of all, see cost savings of automating the compatibility of applications over the months and months of testing efforts manuals.

With new trial AppDNA see detail the consolidation pursuant to 10 applications (MSI 5, 5 web-based) and learn how powerful the AppDNA software can be for your organization.

What kind of peace of mind would you in planning your move XP to Windows 7 or Windows 8 if you can look into the crystal ball and know your success rate? Do you plan an upgrade to the latest version XenApp if you knew that your success rate of application compatibility? Well, now you can experience the successful implementation of the compatibility AppDNA software - at no cost

For Citrix partners AppDNA this new test is an incredible opportunity to be the trusted advisor to the migration of the application -. Whether to migrate to OS virtualization project or combined effort - using free test reports for the scope of the effort, time and cost of projects. The proposal of the project accurately and help customers migrate with less challenge

The fine print :. The trial is valid for 30 days and is limited to one test per company. Now - go ahead and test your applications via the AppDNA testing

Orchestrate and automate the delivery of cloud-hosted desktops and applications -

With the release of our App Orchestration technology in Citrix Cloud Provider Pack, we began our journey by helping cloud our service providers to build desktop and cloud applications. And with today's announcement of Merlin Technology Preview project, we are extending our leadership to allow all our customers, businesses and service providers to build private, hybrid and public clouds office. You deliver a "finished product" desktop as a service or supply of office infrastructure as a service, Merlin project provides the complete stack to build both your VDI and desktop and application offers Shared cloud hosted

This revolutionary new feature automates maintenance design, configuration, deployment and lifecycle of applications and Windows desktops. It provides a unique cloud management layer for Enterprise IT and service providers to manage multiple tenants / multiple departments, several batteries, multiple products and multiple sites. Orchestration is a key requirement for building a desktop cloud and reach a scale cloud and cloud economy.

From a single interface, suppliers of cloud admins can define service offerings consisting of the workspace, network configuration, and isolation requirements and have the orchestration engine complete the deployment - hands free. As users subscribe to the service offering, orchestration engine automatically set up the office infrastructure and workload machines dynamically create and deliver desktops and hosted applications. When it comes time to update applications or desktop images, the administrator simply tells the new image, and the orchestration application engine manages the drainage servers and migration of subscribers without manual intervention.

No more spreadsheets and complex tools to track your tenants and infrastructures and services office assigned to them. Orchestration provides a multi-tenant view of all service offerings are used by different tenants. And with the integration CloudPortal, Enterprise & IT Service Providers can offer a self service procurement and billing / chargeback functionality for desktop and application of the offers delivered to their private or public clouds.

For the last 2 years we have worked with service providers and enterprise customers to help them transition to the cloud. It is very exciting to see all our technologies together under Project Avalon to offer a complete solution to enable our customers to build and deliver desktop clouds.

XenDesktop Site Checker v1.5

5:24 PM Add Comment
XenDesktop Site Checker v1.5 -

of the Citrix community Hello!

Since this is my first Citrix blog, I thought I would give a quick introduction. My name is Kenny Baldwin, and I worked on the Citrix worldwide escalation team for the past three years, support for both XenApp and XenDesktop. I presented TechEdge 2011 and I am an active participant in the support forums.

I am writing this post because I want to share an overview of the latest version of XenDesktop Site Checker utility that I've worked on. Initially, I was publishing tool for the Citrix Knowledge Center a few months ago as the "XenDesktop Service Checker" because it is the original intention was to check that all the site services are running, and all service instances have been recorded correctly in a XenDesktop site.

I decided early on to build this tool as a standalone C # WinForms, built on .NET 3.5 SP1, which can run PowerShell scripts to perform certain tasks in a XenDesktop environment 5. Since all interactions the tool with the site's database are executed via the XenDesktop 5 PowerShell SDK, the application has proven to be very flexible and reliable for its purpose.

This tool has been designed to help identify and correct common problems XenDesktop site, while giving the user a "look under the covers on a 5+ XenDesktop site. Although the tool always has the ability to identify and correct non-registered service instances in a XenDesktop site, I am working to add more checks and corrections that we identify in support.

Over the past two months, I work to refine the performance of the tool, as well as expansion of its capacity and overall functionality. I thought it would be interesting to share my latest progress with the community in order to solicit feedback (good or bad).

I modified the tool a bit from the current public version, so here's a look at what has changed between 1.1 and 1.5

As you can see, I strongly modified and expanded the scope of this utility. I tried to focus on adding configuration options that are not available in Desktop Studio (CTX1307 for example), and another method of connecting and monitoring a XenDesktop site.

Here are some of the main changes since v1.1:

  • Re-aligned the best TreeView nodes level to reflect the Desktop layout studio
  • Unlocked the main SplitContainer for better resizing
  • Tweaked the Log Viewer field to fill the vertical space resize / maximize
  • Added PVD storage node to the host, and the ability to remove or storage of VM storage or PVD
  • Added AD Identity pool, catalog, provisioning schemes and provisioning tasks nodes
  • Added ability to stop / remove provisioning tasks
  • Added ability to view / change advanced power settings of a mission (this is my favorite, although I intentionally left out the "extended" options, no one use ??)

I also made minor adjustments following:
  • moved the buttons and the bar progression to the bottom panel of the right dock
  • Added 'open in Notepad "to open a viewer session (including the selected text)
  • Added logging for all POSH scripts and variables
  • Improved exception handling redirected to the viewer journal
  • Changed routine "Checker service" to automatically record the missing service instances (it will still tell you about it, I just assumed that why you ran the tool :)
  • Removed the 'description' text box
  • "improved" TreeView icons

Some things I want to add in the next version are:

  • Add SQL join / evict
  • script generator
  • Add 'Connect to ..' feature for remote support
  • Add a vCPUs / RAM adjuster Provisioning diagrams node
  • Fixed some formatting problems
  • Add more / better logging
  • Add all the newly discovered ways detect problems and determining site configuration
  • Remember faster than Desktop studio 😉

I hope you get a good use of this tool, and I welcome your comments! Keep an eye on v1.5 later this week.

Thanks,

-Kenny

Collaboration is a vast arena and these days, we have dozens, even hundreds, collaborative species; beautiful, colorful, very capable. Some of the best examples are the beauty of Gotomeeting the power of Podio, and elegance of ShareFile. Of course, there are also many non-Citrix variants, social enterprise, and traditional technologies such as email, telephone and face to face meetings.

So this is a good thing, right?

Wrong.

I was forced into the Coliseum to battle with YAC (yet another collaboration system) simply too many times. These days, most of us are very aware of the cost of the effort, the concentration and time to bring more YAC. For me, I am limiting it to no more than one YAC a month. So I'm intrigued by a collaborative approach that gives the head of YAC fancy, but does not insist on the effort to learn to drive forward and prosper in a new collaboration.

Grexit is a Citrix Startup Accelerator business that adds collaborative capabilities essential to the good old email (comfortable) - in other words, they allow collaborative email. These are cool things. . Here are some of their thoughts on how to take an existing technology (email) and make just enough changes to let the existing behaviors to achieve so much more

  • Sign : What if when I sent an email to a colleague about a project or client, it could be deposited automatically with a corresponding label or in a corresponding file. When I assign a task to someone, again gets filed under a folder called "My Tasks"
  • A Cure for Clutter : Really, why should you DC 25 people on an email if you just want 3 of them to read it right away. Why do not you may file somewhere without cluttering inboxes of these 23 people, where they can find it later if they need it "
  • Cross Inbox Discovery . what if I could go beyond my personal inbox to find relevant information for me

All these are part of their popular email collaboration technology. google apps. is this the future of collaboration? It may well be. anyway I like the idea of ​​winning the war for collaboration without constant battles coliseum. Check Grexit for a new email collaborative approach.

XenClient CTO Series - Intelligent Desktop Virtualization as a catalyst to experience the next generation of IT - Part 1 -

He was near six years I came to the conclusion that the virtualization system is a mandatory technology to address the key challenges with traditional computing model. Not only that, virtualization facilitates the transition to modern, secure computing, opens the doors open widely to new types of end user experience and simplifies the work of administrators.

The computing architecture envisaged for personal computers (PC) there are thirty guess the entire components of the computing experience were going to live together sharing the same hardware resources. These IT resources could be storage, CPU, memory, mouse, keyboard, display, network, printer, etc. At the time, the equipment would have cost a fortune. There was even a lack of support for color graphics, audio or video output. Thus, the sharing of software resources within the material resources had a sense of the economic point of view. The services provided by an operating system has been very limited as well and the demand for the creation of new applications for computers was very low.

The PC industry has grown rapidly over the years, especially over the last decade with great advances in hardware, operating systems and applications of CD-quality audio support capabilities, high definition video, biometric sensors and geo, etc. Moreover, we are witnessing an explosion in the types of mobile and ultra-mobile devices people use on a daily basis. A quick visit to an Apple or a Microsoft shop would tell you what I mean here. However, one thing has remained the same and is maintained almost forgot: the original architecture remained in place governing our evolution calculation for most cases, including client and server devices. The main exception here is the smart phones, government regulations mandating data isolation Telephony Modem software from the rest of the user's environment. As expected also, the concept of shared resources extended hardware resources for the software itself. So in a web browser, you can have as many plugins as you like. In the next part of this blog series, I will discuss how the sharing of hardware and software resources results in security problems for IT

Access Gateway Lizenzierung - Platform Universal Lizenz und Lizenz

Access Gateway Lizenzierung - Platform Universal Lizenz und Lizenz -

Die in diesem Blog erwähnten Lizenztypen beziehen sich auf das Access Gateway, das auf NetScaler basiert und in der Vergangenheit als Enterprise Edition war bekannt . Wie bereits angekündigt ist das am 31. März 2012 EOS (End of Sale), also das für die Offizielle Verkaufsende Access Gateway 2010 Appliance. Citrix führt die drei zusammen und wird Produktlinien zukünftig nur eine Edition, Access Gateway MPX (die als Enterprise bekannt ist) auf Basis NetScaler, weiter entwickeln.

In diesem Artikel noch Mal möchte die beiden Lizenztypen die und die Platform License license Universal, vorstellen und ein Einsatzszenario darstellen.

Platform Lizenz
Jede Access Gateway Appliance (MPX / VPX) enthält die Platform License, alle die Basis von Funktionalitäten Access Gateway ermöglicht.
Mit Platform licenses Benutzer können oder auf XenApp XenDesktop Ressourcen zugreifen, ohne dass für jede einzelne dazu eine Verbindung (kostenpflichtige) Access Gateway Universal license benötigt wird. Jede und NetScaler Access Gateway Appliance (physisch und virtuell) umfasst eine Access Gateway Platform License, die zum Aufbau von der Kapazität Benutzerverbindungen bis zur Appliance maximum berechtigt.Nach dem Kauf der kann die Lizenz Appliance über den account MyCitrix runtergeladen und auf der installiert Appliance werden. Über Platform of wird Licence die:

  • ICAProxy-Zugriff auf XenApp-gehosteten Anwendungen oder zu XenDesktop-gehostete Desktops über WebInterface
  • ICAProxy-Zugriff auf XenApp / XenDesktop über Storefront (CloudGateway Express) ermöglicht.

Universal Lizenz
Die Universal License ermöglicht es, zusätzliche, erweiterte Appliances Funktionaliäten auf Access Gateway frei zu schalten. Lizenziert wird nach dem Concurrend user (CCU) Modell. Müssen die Lizenezen zusätzlich zu der oder Hardware Software Appliance gekauft werden, die Installation erfolgt wie oben beschrieben genauso wie bei der Lizenz Platform. License Access Gateway Universal folgende unterstützt Funktionen:

  • Vollständiges VPN Tunneling auf Netzwerkebene (SSL VPN)
  • Endpunktanalyse (EPA) customer von Endgeräten
  • Adaptive SmartAccess-Richtlinien
  • Clientless Zugang zu Email, share für XenApp / XenDesktop Sites und file (CVPN)
  • MDX Micro VPN

Die Licence Universal wird in den folgenden Citrix Umgebungen benötigt:

  • Verbindung zu XenApp / XenDesktop mit SmartAccess Funktionalität (über WebInterface und Storefront)
  • CloudGateway Enterprise Mobility (AppController)
  • CloudGateway Enterprise (AppController und Storefront )

Virtual Server - vServer
möglich es Access Gateway macht, vServer (Virtual Server) als Zugangspunkte zu konfigurieren, so dass die als zentraler devices Connecting Punkt für alle to distance fungiert Verbindungen. Dafür gibt es zwei Modi für den vServer :. Basic Mode und SmartAccess fashion

basic mode vServer
Der Basic Mode vServer ist ein nur die der Server Platform benötigt Lizenz und der auf ICAProxy- Zugriff XenDesktop XenApp und sowohl über WebInterface als auch Storefront bietet. Hiefür werden keine Universal Lizenzen the benötigt.

Mode SmartAccess vServer
Der vServer im fashion SmartAccess Universal benötigt Lizenzen und kann für den Zugriff auf XenApp, XenDesktop und werden CloudGateway benutzt. Hierbei sollte beachtet werden, dass ein fashion SmartAccess vServer zwingend Universal Licenses benötigt die in ausreichender Anzahl für alle Benutzer vorhanden müssen breast. CCU-sind die Lizenzen "aufgebraucht" die as max. Anzahl der Benutzer angemeldet, können keine weiteren Verbindungen aufgebaut werden. Es ist daher sinnvoll, die Anzahl der Lizenzen CCU Universal im Vorfeld richtig zu kalkulieren, damit alle Benutzer Zugriff auf die Ressourcen haben.

Beide vServer können über den neuen Wizard, wurde der in dem aktuellen Access Gateway output, up correctly werden. Dieser Assistant macht es erheblich einfacher, alle benötigen Authentifizierungs-Richtlinien und zu den konfigurieren vServer in eine Bestehende Citrix Infrastruktur einzubinden. Mehr dazu: / blogs / 2012/08/06 / what's new with-citrix-access-bridge-10-0-69-6 /

Im ein Folgenenden Lizensierungsbeispiel anhand Praxis eines-Szenarios:

Bei einem Kunden sollten gelten folgende Parameter:
1. 3000 Benutzer brauchen Zugriff Anwendungen auf wichtige
2. 1000 auf einen Benutzer benötigen Zugriff vollständigen office
3. 1000 Benutzer benötigen Zugriff auf Web- , Saas, mobile native apps von unterwegs

Der Kunde hat folgende Lizenzen:
3000 1. XenApp Enterprise Lizenzen
2. 1000 XenDesktop Platinum Lizenzen
3. 1000 CloudGateway Enterprise Lizenzen

DAHER er benötigt die folgende Universal Anzahl Lizenzen (CCU):
0 1. AG CCU
1000 1. AG CCU
1000 1. AG CCU

In diesem Beispiel muss Access Gateway Konfiguration die wie folgt aufgebaut werden:

  • Aufbau von zwei AG MPX appliances HA Modus, 5000 Benutzer können die unterstützen
  • Download platform der Lizenz für Beide Appliances. Download der AG UCG in 00, dying in XenDesktop Platinum und sind enthalten CloudGateway Enterprise -. Einspielen der Lizenzen auf der MPX Appliance
  • Konfiguration of vservers im Basic Mode um 3000 Benutzern Zugriff auf deren Anwendungen zu ermöglichen
  • Konfiguration of zweiten vservers im fashion SmartAccess - dieser genutzt wird, um 1000 Benutzern Zugriff auf und zu XenDesktop CloudGateway ermöglichen. Hierbei kann die Endpunktanalyse (EPA - End Point Analysis) werden up correctly. Somit sichergestellt wird, dass die der Endgeräte gescannt Benutzer werden, wenn sie zugreifen. Sinnvoll Das ist, weil die auf einen Benutzer Zugriff vollständigen virtuellen Office Anwendungen haben mit allen. Meldet sich ein mit den Benutzer user Credentials one wird gescannt within Endgerät. Bereits vor der Anmeldung kann scanning entschieden werden, ob das Endgerät Konfiguration und die den Richtlinien definierten entsprechen. Gegebenenfalls können Aufgrund der Beschaffenheit of Endgeräts der Anwendungen auf oder auf Zugriff einzelne Funktionen innerhalb der Applikationen unterdrückt werden (Copy / Paste, Speichern, Drucken etc.).
  • Wenn EPA am zweiten vServer up correctly ist, sollte ein dritter vServer im SmartAccess aufgesetzt fashion werden, um für die Zugriff CloudGateway Benutzer zu ermöglichen. Der Grund ist, dass die mobilen Receiver für iOS und noch keine Androitd Endpunktanalyse unterstützen somit und sich nicht mit dem zweiten vServer mit verbinden EPA können.

Wer als heute Citrix Access Gateway Kunde die "kleine" 2010 einsetzt Appliance, der kann jetzt von einer promote profitieren: Beim Erwerb einer neuen Access Gateway MPX Appliance oder einer neuen NetScaler MPX Appliance bis 31. Dezember 2012 gewähren wir einen von Preisvorteil $ 3,000 auf den empfohlenen Verkaufspreis. . Mehr zu erfahren Sie hier der promtion

access to applications within the desktop management published with Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager and Citrix App Studio

9:16 PM Add Comment
access to applications within the desktop management published with Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager and Citrix App Studio -

My first post will describe a solution that can help service providers to use Citrix CloudPortal Service Manager (CPSM) together with Citrix App studio to manage the visibility and use of applications installed within Desktop released.

for those of you who have worked with Citrix App Studio and integration with CloudPortal Manager service before probably know that the current integration of these great products has a limitation that they can "only" allow automation and the creation of jobs published or published applications. What if your map as a service provider is to offer only Windows Desktop as a Service and any use of the application and it will run in the published desktop? How do you manage the access and visibility or even billing for applications installed inside the office? There are many excellent third-party tools like AppSense that can do this or another option is to use the basic functionality of Citrix App Studio and CPSM a little more creatively ...

If you need to know more about how to configure Citrix App studio I encourage to have a look at a great fast deployment guide written by Thomas Hammond describes how to make a basic configuration of Citrix App studio (/ blogs / -quick-deployment Guide citrix-app-studio-2012/03/29 / /).

the integration between service Manager and Citrix CloudPortal App studio is done through the installation of new services (hosted applications and Desktop) in service Manager CloudPortal. There is a good Citrix TV video that shows how to achieve integration (http://www.citrix.com/tv/#videos/5401).

When using hosted applications and services CloudPortal Service Manager Office in the provision of advertising created Citrix App studio for the first customer, a domain local group for the ad is created under CortexSystem / services / OR HostedAppsandDesktops active in the Directory field. CPSM default uses a group of naming HostedAppsandDesktops UserPlanName during the creation of these groups. CPSM uses this group to control which client the availability of the announcement. When a customer subscribes to advertising available with CPSM, a comprehensive new customer specific domain group is created and added to be a member of the local group of the domain availability check of the announcement. The default naming convention CPSM is used for this group is HostedAppsandDesktops CustomerShortCode UserPlanName . So basically the idea is that we will use the system CPSM large domain local group that controls the availability of advertising to manage access to applications within the published desktop. Theintegration between CPA and App Studio (hosted applications and desktop services) will handle the tenant of the creative process in App Studio, and the creation of the subscription filtered tenant with global domain specific customer group established by CPSM and add the newly created subscription to advertising in App studio. And yes, we'll let App Studio to leverage it built in automated workflows to take care of the creation of published applications to XenApp farm based on the configurations made in App Studio, although we will not use published applications in this case.

So let say a new application called SAP will be installed at dedicated customer session host XenApp. After the process of installing Citrix App Studio is used to automatically fill the newly installed SAP application and create an advertising it. After the creation of advertising, a new user plan must be created in CPSM (in our case, the name will just SAP) and user plane will be mapped to the newly created advertising. When the new advertising CPSM is on and planned for the first customer, the broad domain local group of the CPA system is created under CortexSystem / OR HostedAppsandDesktops services in addition to the domain global group of specified client. At this stage, we will use the local group created domain (in this case HostedAppsandDesktops SAP) for reading and permission to run NTFS rights shortcut to SAP and application executables boot menu XenApp host application session and remove these default user group rights. When users are provisioned with the user CPSM plan, the tenant will be created in App Studio, subscription to this tenant will be created and thus the creation of published applications in XenApp farm is automated by App Studio workflows. This is nothing new right? The user will be provisioned member of the global group of related customer field (in this case HostedAppsandDesktops SAP CCS) is a member of the largest domain local group of CPSM system that controls the availability of the ad and this right with the NTFS rights required. This is just the interweaving of the core group, right? At the end user will get the required group memberships and rights that enable the visibility and use of the application within the office. As our service provider does not offer or even show applications published to the user when logging in via the web interface or Cloud Gateway, published applications created by App Studio can be disabled and hidden to users. Instead of doing according to the published application in AppCenter, we can use App Studio to edit these properties in the overall ad created for each published application. Whenever a new customer administration provisions, a user plane corresponding to advertise to users in CPSM, App Studio automatically creates the necessary applications published and he will inherit advertising settings so that new applications published will be created with properties to be hidden and disabled.

If the service provider for any reason will offer opportunity to access the published application in the future, it is only necessary to change the properties of existiting publisheed applications or settings advertising to get there .

and here you have a solution for managing access to applications within a published desktop to the use of built-in Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager and Citrix App Studio.

Citrix simplifies virtual desktop by filling the printing architecture Universal -

User requirements for printing in a virtual desktop environment are quite simple. Any device, any network and any place, users simply want to discover network printers or connect a local USB printer and print to them.

Any IT professional knows, however, that make the print job is transparent and reliable challenging. Many customers have had to resort to complicated and expensive third party management technologies to meet the requirements of printing. Now the Citrix desktop virtualization solution tame the complexity of printing by filling a universal printing architecture with Citrix HDX Universal Print Server. Combined with the previously available Universal Print Driver, administrators can now install a single driver in the virtual desktop image or application server to enable local printing or network from any device, including thin clients and tablets.

Leverage the HDX optimization technology to reduce the load of bandwidth on WANs and manage print communications outside the virtual desktop channel for better quality of service. The Universal Print Server, and the necessary system updates will be included in the next XenDesktop 5.6 Feature Pack 1 release in June 2012.
