Publishing Resources for Users

To configure servers to publish for multiple users

Updated: 2010-06-07

To ensure applications are enabled for multiple users, install the applications using one of the following methods:

Install applications as the Built-in Administrator
Select an “install for multiple users” option in the installation wizard for the application, if the Setup for the application provides this option
Install the application for all users from a command line

To install an application for all users, after enabling Remote Desktop Services, use these steps before installing the application:

Open a command prompt so that you are running it with Administrator privileges; for example, right-click the command prompt and select Run as Administrator.
Run the following command at a command prompt: change user /install
From the command prompt, run the Setup executable for the application.

Change Citrix License Administration Console Password

1) Open the "server.xml" file in C:\Program Files\Citrix\Licensing\LS\conf. If on Win2k8 you will need to open your editor as an admin.
2) Find the entry that looks something like this:
"System" id="admin" lastName="Administrator" password="(ENC-01)UaFz17cJ2oNQ+LkskjkzUyVV5ZcmaoJCDCiuiusbB6zk2P0uR" passwordExpired="false" privileges="admin"/>;

3) Erase the contents between the double quotes after "password="
4) Enter a plaintext password so it looks like this: password="test"
5) Change the passwordExpired value to be "true"
6) Save the server.xml file.
7) Restart the licensing services. I also closed and re-opened the LAC but this may not be necessary.
8) Log into the LAC using user name "admin" and the password you set.
9) You will be prompted to change your password. Do it. By doing it, the new password will be encrypted in the server.xml file.
10) To check that everything is working as planned, re-open the server.xml to check that the password is now encrypted.

Setup for evaulating the Citrix XenAPP6 (CitrixXA6EVA.exe) with XenServer 5.6 SP2

Setup for evaulating the Citrix XenAPP6 (CitrixXA6EVA.exe) with XenServer 5.6 SP2

I'll tell you what this has been the most painful setup I've ever done. I want to punch those Citrix document writers in the face for the limited documenation on this.

Fair enough some knowledge on NFS and Linux would help on this. But what if you don't like me.

All I want to do is test my app in Citrix XenApp 6 and troubleshoot an issue I've got and see how it performs.

I have limited hardware available for this test, so the moment I'm using one desktop with XP. 4 GB ram (actually 3.23 in use).

So I thought I'd better make a record of this before I forget. Here is where I'm at, and my steps to get here. (not including all issues allong the way, but some and fixes)

Desktop with Windows XP SP3, Intel Cord 2 Quad CPU Q6700 @ 2.66Ghz + 4GB (3.23GB) or RAM.
Two harddisks C: 300GB and D: 1TB
VirtualBox version 4.0.10 r72479 installed

1. Installed XenServer 5.6 SP2 (5.6.100-47101p) in VM with Windows 2008 64bit profile with 50 GB HD.
2. Installed haneWIN NFS Server on physical machine created NFS D:\NFS -public
3. Attempted to add NFS in XenServer but didn't work, later figured out via many google searches, I need to enter "IP:/d/NFS" for the Share Name when creating New Storage Repository.
4. NFS added now, but:it says:

Size total, 0 bytes

This Storage Repository is unplugged and not usable by this host.

try this:

XenServer console or SSH session to the XenServer host:
showmount -e
