One of the most common tasks in Citrix Provisioning Services is updating desktop or server images that we deliver to users, either to patch them, Add Apps, etc… In this document, we'll look at how to work with versioning and create a new vDisk update.
After deploying a Provisioning Services site in high availability, we should continue to create an IP address to which the computers that boot with PXE connect and this is balanced to the PVS server with less load. We will rely on Citrix NetScaler Load Balancing to carry out this function!
In this document, we'll look at how to extend a Citrix Provisioning Server infrastructure for high availability, this critical service that distributes OS to desktops or servers, expanding capacities and therefore having greater performance! It is a very simple task that we will have to perform if we have this service in production to quickly deploy operating systems over the network through PXE!
And to finish with this series of three articles where we will see how to deploy virtual desktops for our Citrix XenDesktop environment with Provisioning Services! we will finish with the presentation of the vDisk generated in previous steps to XenDesktop and we will create a catalog of VMs with it to present to our users!
We continue with the implementation of PVS, in this document we will already have a workstation installed with the OS and the corporate applications that we want the virtual desktop to have that we will send to users! We will install the VDA agent for you, TD and we will generate the vDisk with the image that we will distribute!
We started a series of three articles on how to deploy Citrix Provisioning Services by integrating it with Citrix XenDesktop, a way of provisioning OS to virtual desktops that we will introduce to users. In this first article we will look at the installation of PVS Console, PVS Server and perform the PVS configuration wizard!
With Citrix Provisioning Services we can distribute servers or desktops over the network, called on-demand equipment provisioning. This provisioning will allow us to dynamically and accelerate the generation of new virtual desktops or servers at the desired time. Together with XenDesktop we will be able to manage virtual desktops as in VMware View with VMware Composer, distribute disk images that are obtained from a master virtual desktop with the Provisioning Services Agent to our users.
This document will cover these two Citrix Provisioning Server for DataCenters releases (for server provisioning) and Citrix Provisioning Server for Desktops (for desktop provisioning).
