We are running XenApp 7.15 on Windows 2016 sitting behind Storefront and Netscaler.

While finishing up the configuration, I am looking into the LHC.  In the past,(XenApp 6.5)  we had a scheduled task to run dsmaint compactdb/lb daily.  In reading, I see that the LHC is still present, but with the new architecture and Delivery controllers in reading it doesn't necessarily sound like this is a recommended maintenance item to do unless I plan to force an outage.  However; maybe I'm misinterpreting.  This is the article I'm reading, https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/manage-deployment/local-host-cache.html.

Any insight as to what you do in your farms?

Thanks

Hello,

I have a GPO which I have configured folder redirection in User Configurations.  I login to a Windows 7 computer and I am seeing the attached error.  When I login a Windows 10 computer, folder redirection works, and I am seeing the MY DOCUMENTS folder is being redirected to our profile shared.  

Anyone who knows how to resolve please advise.  

Many thanks.

Citrix XenApp 6.5, WebInterface Service Site is not working for one Windows 2008 R2 HSD. Giving below error.
Citrix receiver could not be connected to the server. please check the network connection.
After I prohibited the problematic HSD, users are able to access the WI Service site from their Citrix Receiver.
Please suggest, what configuration I have to check on HSD to troubleshoot the issue.

Citrix ADC VPX 1000 Management CPU always using 100%. As per the below carlstalhood article, we can change CPU Yield to YES from Default. But this change required VPX 200 and lower only. If I do the same change on VPX 1000, is it effective? or is it hamper VPX performance? Please suggest.

NetScaler 12 packet engine consumes 100% of the hypervisor CPU. VPX 200 and lower only have one packet engine, so it’s probably consuming around 50% CPU.

Before rolling into production, want to upgrade our XenApp 7.15 environment from CU3 to CU5 on Windows 2016. Referenced https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/whats-new/known-issues.html   Looking for any known issues and any database schema changes (that I need to request from the DBA's).  I'm not seeing a lot of issues noted here, but wanted to check in and see if anyone has had any issues.

We are not using XenDesktop only XenApp (VDA).

I realize 1912 is out and would love to go there, but the License Server requirement is our hold up until users are off of XenApp 6.5 Completely.

Thanks in advance.

Hello

I am trying this command to copy profile of users only in my text file from an old server to a new server, and I am getting %%i was unexpected error.  

for /f %%i in (userprofiles_v1.txt) do robocopy.exe "\\oldserver\userprofiles\%%i" \\newserver\userprofiles /MIR /COPY:DATSO /W:5 /R:10 /V /LOG:C:\users.log

Would someone advise how to correct?

Please advise if there is a better way.  What is the equivalent command in powershell (if using powershell is better) ?


Thanks.

We are running Netscaler MPX9700 FIPS devices (11.1.57) with StoreFront to access our XenApp 6.5 and new XenApp 7.15 environments.  I have found recently that our Mac Users are getting the following message "You have not chosen to trust "GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1", the issuer of the server's security certificate" when trying to launch a published app.  PC users are not having this issue with Chrome, Internet Explorer or Firefox.  MAC users on the other hand see this issue if using Chrome.  They are using version 1912 of Citrix Workspace.  

The Mac users are able to get around this message by installing the certificates in their browser.  From reading, this is something I need to address on the Netscaler rather than users having to address something on their side.  I believe our PC users will receive the same message when they move to a newer Workspace client.  We are currently using Receiver 14.12 on the PC side.

I'm looking for more information as the Certs on the Netscaler are not showing a missing path and can't determine what is missing.

Thanks for any help to point us in the right direction.

Hi:

As of two months ago, a Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 end user has experienced slow payables posting.  She is not aware of any changes, from two months ago.

She uses Citrix with local modified reports dictionaries located on the Citrix box.  The PJOURNAL job is running and is successfully removing these from the companies.  They reboot the SQL box, every night.  She is not the only user experiencing this issue and it is occurring in all companies.

Is there a "silver bullet" that will allow for speeding up the posting?

Thanks!

Hi.

We provide a hosted application to our customers and have recently moved away from Citrix to RDS. Since then we have had multiple customers (and I have personally experienced this myself) reporting that when copy-pasting from their local desktop into our application over RDS, the values are intermittently being pasted in twice (using the 'CTRL' + 'V' on the keyboard).

In terms of frequency, I was performing some configuration in a customer's system last week and I'd say every 10th value I pasted, would go in twice (roughly speaking). But then on other days, it doesn't seem to happen at all. My keyboard is in perfect working order and this only happens when accessing our application in the RDS environment, this issue was not present via Citrix.

My local environment is Windows 10 and we run Windows Server 2016 Datacenter in our RDS environment.

I've done some general Googling, but nothing seems to fit. I'm doing some further testing today to see if the issue presents itself when RDP'ing directly onto one of the servers (rather than logging into our application), but was just wondering if anyone had experienced anything similar?

Thank you

Daniel

I recently updated Windows 10 to version 1909. Prior to the update I was able to log into my workplace application that uses Citrix with no issue. Now I can log in via wireless connection on my laptop, but cannot log in on my PC that is connected to my home network via ethernet.

I have tried using the compatibility trouble shooter and even when it tried running the application it fails.

After opening up the application, I enter my user Id, password and security code, and a window comes up where I hit a button to connect. In the past, the receiver pulled down an ICA file and a status bar opened up showing the status of the connection. Instead of it progressing to completion, it now stops with "connection in progress" and goes no further. When it finally times out, I get an error stating Unable to connect to the server, there is no Citrix SSL server at the specified address.

As stated before, I can connect via wireless but not ethernet. I am using the same address, log in, etc., on both laptop and PC.

Help!

VMWARE Horizon View 7.x Query: How can I get the last 10/20/30 days session details?
In the console, I can see only the last 2000 events.
I don't' have a Vrealize product to get reports.

In this case, as per my knowledge, I should use SQL Query.
Please suggest or provide such SQL Query.
If we have any other ways to get the past reports, please suggest.

For Example, VDA Communication Port Availability, and Session Launch Communication Port Availability: This Tool won't tell us which ports are required to enable or Communicate.

My Query is, Especially, TCP and UDP  port communication for VDA Registration, need a script.
That script should provide list of ports available and what ports are not opened.
