Installing XenApp with Wisdom

Yuri Haak — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 10:52:56 +0000

From the Sharing-is-Caring dept. In our ongoing efforts to provide value to the community, we here at RESug strive to provide you with goodies and documents well worth reading. This time around it’s a document which describes how you can use RES Wisdom to install Citrix XenApp servers automagically. As stated in the document, it’s not a best practice guide – it’s a training guide, which will provide a working example, however you may very well have to adapt it for usage in your own environment. It is however very comprehensive and will teach you by example on how to get the most out of RES Wisdom

The document was authored by and kindly shared with the RES UserGroup by Brian Casselman at RES Software, US. Thanks Brian – you rock!

Here is a new technote, kindly provided by one of the cool folks over at RES. This technote explains how you can configure an application for the PowerFuse Desktop. What’s special in this scenario is that the application will be made available to all users logging onto the network internally, however only certain managers will be able to access the application remotely via Citrix Web Interface. This could come in quite handy.

Migration Tool for Citrix XenApp

Today RES released a cool utility which will help existing XenApp customers implement PowerFuse way more swiftly. What the tool does is read existing published applications from a serverfarm, create the applications inside PowerFuse and create new PowerFuse managed published applications. It even reads any existing file associations configured in the Xenapp environment – Übercool!

There is a nice PDF which describes things well here: The Migration tool can be downloaded from RES here.

Remember, you saw it first on RESguru.com! ;-)
