    <title>Power manage vms in xendesktop</title>

    <description><![CDATA[XenDesktop provides full and partial power management of machines in desktop groups.
You can power manage virtual machines not physical ones. The ability to fully or partially control power management depends on how virtual machines in the desktop group are allocated to users or user devices. Permanently allocated machines can only be partially power managed.
In addition, note that desktops can be in one of these states:
In private or shared desktop groups: unallocated (and therefore unconnected) In private desktop groups: Permanently allocated and unconnected (but ready to be connected) Permanently allocated and in use In shared desktop groups: randomly allocated and in use At any given time, private desktop groups typically contain both permanently allocated and unallocated machines.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[VM hosted apps allows you to isolate applications and host them from virtual machines or physical computers, including blade servers, running Windows single-user desktop operating systems. Users access these applications through a Web browser, the Citrix online plug-in, or Citrix Receiver, just as they would applications hosted from XenApp servers running Microsoft Terminal Services. VM hosted apps allows you to host applications that otherwise must be installed locally or require extensive compatibility testing on XenApp servers.]]></description>

    <title>HDX MediaStream for Flash Feature Dynamic Blacklist Explained</title>

    <description><![CDATA[There are certain situations in which HDX MediaStream for Flash failsfor certain Website URLs. This happens as a result of certain Web pages that have been designed to work in a way that is not compatible with our HDX architecture. These failures cannot be detected, so HDX has been designed to create and use a Dynamic Blacklist to remember Websites that provoke these failures. In these situations, the HDX feature falls back to server-side Flash rendering for the current browser tab that provoked the failure.]]></description>

    <title>(MMC) based Administrative Consoles takes an Extended Time to Start</title>
    <link>https://posts.chaibuilds.com/posts/mmc-based-administrative-consoles-takes-an-extended-time-to-start/</link>
    <pubDate>Tue, 02 Dec 2014 00:00:00 &#43;0000</pubDate><guid>https://posts.chaibuilds.com/posts/mmc-based-administrative-consoles-takes-an-extended-time-to-start/</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[Symptom
Citrix Microsoft Management Console (MMC) based administrative consoles such as Access Management Console, Delivery Services Console take an extended time to start. Once running, the consoles operate normally.
Cause
Citrix MMC based administrative consoles feature components that are written using the Microsoft .NET Framework. Citrix signs these .NET based components with an Authenticode signature as an added security mechanism.
In situations where a Citrix MMC based administrative console is run from a computer without internet access, Windows is unable to verify the Authenticode signature, and as a result this causes a delay during the startup of the console.]]></description>

    <title>About Personal vDisk</title>

    <pubDate>Tue, 02 Dec 2014 00:00:00 &#43;0000</pubDate><guid>https://posts.chaibuilds.com/posts/about-personal-vdisk/</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[The personal vDisk feature in XenDesktop retains the single image management of pooled and streamed desktops while allowing people to install applications and change their desktop settings.
Unlike traditional Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) deployments involving pooled desktops, where users lose their customizations and personal applications when the administrator alters the base virtual machine (VM), deployments using personal vDisks retain those changes. This means administrators can easily and centrally manage their base VMs while providing users with a customized and personalized desktop experience.]]></description>

    <title>AD Discovery in XenDesktop 5.6</title>

    <description><![CDATA[XenDesktop Active Directory Configuration Wizard is not available in XenDesktop 5.x.
Background
If you decide to use Active Directory-based controller discovery in your environment, in the previous versions of XenDesktop, you could use Active Directory (AD) Configuration Wizard to create and configure the AD Organizational Unit (OU) for the farm but in XenDesktop 5.x, you have to use PowerShell script to perform that configuration.
AD-based Controller Discovery
Complete the following in order to configure your environment for AD-based controller discovery:]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[For desktops to be usable, they must register (that is, establish communication) with the correct controller or with any one of the controllers, if there are more than one.
The default operation, whose configuration is briefly described in this topic, uses information in the desktops&rsquo; registries to establish communication. This is referred to as registry-based controller discovery. You can also use an Organizational Unit (OU) in Active Directory (AD). This is referred to as AD-based controller discovery.]]></description>

    <title>Delegating Administration in XenDesktop 5.6</title>
    <link>https://posts.chaibuilds.com/posts/delegating-administration-in-xendesktop-5-6/</link>

    <description><![CDATA[Citrix administrators are not set up automatically during XenDesktop installation. After installation, only local administrators on the server running the Controller have full administrative privileges, with authority to manage and administer all areas of the XenDesktop site. Only an administrator with full rights can create additional full or delegated administrators.
Note: Local administrators on the Controller always have full administrative privileges; these privileges always take precedence, regardless of delegated privileges that may later be explicitly assigned by Citrix administrators.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Upon first launch of Desktop Studio just after installation you’ll be presented with error message: “Object reference not set to an instance of an object. reload the snap-in to retry.”
Solution1:
Cause: Because “CitrixConfigurationService” service is NOT running on your system. In the eventvwr you’ll notice that reason why this service failing to startup. The most probable cause is that “This computer is not joined to a domain; these services cannot be run outside of a domain.]]></description>

    <title>Installing and Removing the Virtual Desktop Agent</title>
    <link>https://posts.chaibuilds.com/posts/installing-and-removing-the-virtual-desktop-agent/</link>

    <description><![CDATA[The Virtual Desktop Agent has to be present on the virtual machines (VMs) to which your users will be connecting. It enables the machines to register with controllers and manages the HDX connection between the machines and the user devices.
If you are using XenDesktop or Provisioning services to provision VMs, you need to install and configure the Virtual Desktop Agent only once, but if you are using separate stand-alone virtual or physical machines you must install it on each of the machines so they can register with the controller to allow user connections.]]></description>
