Завершить сессию не удаётся - сессия остается активной в консоле XenApp -

Доброго времени суток, дорогие читатели. Снова с вами российский голос технической поддержки Citrix.

Тема сегодняшнего поста оказалось весьма востребованной, когда появилась одновременно у троих моих клиентов. Суть проблемы - при выходе из приложения сессия не завершается, в консоле DSC AppCenter сессия видна как активная и пользователя в её свойствах не видно. pre-launch session При Ø session Lingering не используются.

Что делать?

1) Проверить, что вы установили все заплатки статьи из Microsoft recommended hotfixes for XenApp 6 .x on Windows Server 08 R2.

2) Загрузить и установить на сервере Process Explorer.

3) Заметить какие процессы остаются активными и "держат" сессию. Далее используем следующий ключ реестра из этой статьи, при этом помним, что и csrss.exe winlogon.exe уже есть в "системном" списке обязательных на проверку процессов при завершении приложения пользователем:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control Citrix wfshell TWI
value Name: LogoffCheckSysModules
Type: REG_SZ
Chain: MyProcessName.exe

Для распространения этого ключа на все серверы фермы Preferences можно использовать group policy.

4) Если у вас используется стриминг, выключите функцию повторного использования песочницы.

5) Если процесс winlogon еще висит и потребляет системные ресурсы, обратите внимание на заплатку XA650W2K8R2X64019 (для XenApp 6.0 входит в HRP01).

Если же всё вышеперечисленное не помогает, собирайте полный дамп памяти сервера и открывайте сервисный запрос в Технической поддержке Citrix.

Powering mobility with Citrix Solutions -

With the rise of mobile workstyles and workshifting, there is a growing need for people to be as productive when mobile when they are in the office . Embracing mobility by enabling highly productive mobile workforce presents significant challenges for the IT organization. This is compounded by the mix of devices, applications and data that are introduced, creating chaos for IT companies. Basis of this chaos are the issues of user experience, access, control, data security, application management, and support

To help understand this chaos, lets look at each area where the complexity is introduced :.

  1. Devices : the growing range of devices and platforms BYO device creates chaos of the unit within the company. Provide users with fast connectivity and productive user experience across device platforms, screen sizes and resolutions is complex due to the large number of possible combinations. Android, iOS, Windows, RIM; laptop, tablet, smartphone - each variation develops a matrix too heavy support. This is even before the network is considered
  2. Applications : The ever increasing mix of SaaS, mobile, web and Windows applications within companies is to create and manage applications support disorders as well. With so many options available, spreading application is a real problem. In a not too distant future, if not today, it will be exacerbated by BYO-apps, that is, individual applications brought into the company as a result of BYOD
  3. data . When it comes to business there is a spectrum that safety data influenced by several factors such as ownership of the device, the user of the status and current location. For example, what is a contract employee can access from a personal device connected via a public wireless network should be significantly different from a permanent employee with a desktop PC on the local network business.

The challenge is how to address this complexity with such non-end devices, poorly written applications and / or malicious, and readily available consumer data sharing applications. An unfortunate fact is that when it comes to security issues, the greatest threats usually come from within the organization. These incidents are not always malicious and can occur passively, but the company must take steps to ensure that it can control and secure data.

Fortunately Citrix is ​​working on clearing the chaos by providing a trusted client on the device and a unified storefront for enterprise access and control the application of business and data resources. Citrix Receiver + + CloudGateway ShareFile provide a unified enterprise mobility solution that solves the problems associated with the device, application, data and chaos of

Citrix Receiver provides a "me to work" on any device -. Whoever is provided by the company or as part of a BYOD program, it does not matter the key is that Citrix Receiver provides a space for secure mobile working to access applications. of work and data positions. CloudGateway Sharefile + is the backend infrastructure that allows the receiver to universal workspace of a person. Between them, they connect users to back-end services that represent their applications, . workstations and data, and enable them to be productive everywhere

We are very pleased that our solution is designed to support mobile business we focus on what matters -. provide enterprise applications and data securely to users on any device, anywhere, while ensuring chaos is a thing of the past. If mobility is high on your list, keep an eye on Citrix this year!

ByteMobile and Citrix NetScaler :. Powering Video Chat My Kid

ByteMobile and Citrix NetScaler :. Powering Video Chat My Kid -

I am a user ByteMobile for ages now Sometimes when I'm traveling and want to call home. The days of picking up the phone to "reach out and touch someone" went as we are not more than 30 seconds before hearing hello " Dad, can we video chat? " and therefore, I and ByteMobile've been best friends for a while now. I'll see my little guys far and ByteMobile gets another point of evidence to explain why consumption data over the mobile network soared.

I am not alone in my use of the video. There are a few simple years, data were only 10% of the traffic with the voice of consuming the remaining 0%. Now, the numbers are reversed with 0% of bearer data traffic being. in self-interest to ensure that my video chats work perfectly, We passed and in partnership with the ByteMobile crew to feed their newly announced T1100 ByteMobile Adaptive Traffic Management . (Http://www.bytemobile.com/news-events/news-releases.html)

selfish reasons aside, the relationship makes a lot of business sense. the growth continued mobile data has made the transport infrastructure market to grow at an impressive 45% CAGR which in turn is driving the need for strengthening the underlying infrastructure. For us, this means learning to flex our muscles scalability of an exciting and strategically. Given our recent announcements around TriScale, you can imagine how we are excited by the potential.

By supplying the T1100 with ByteMobile TriScale (http://bit.ly/I2lqUx), carriers have the tools they need to follow the incredible growth to horizontally scale the platform ByteMobile T3100. As the traffic for a location shoot, TriScale can continue to stretch to handle the extra load by taking advantage of various technologies such as PayGrow and Clustering. At a very practical level, enabling growth in place that is much more efficient CAPEX rather than rip and replace strategy that is often required with solutions based chassis power hungry.

So there you have it. NetScaler powered ByteMobile genius that allows me to video chat with my child fail. Excited does not begin to describe.

Major HDX enhancements in Citrix Receiver for Linux 12.0

Major HDX enhancements in Citrix Receiver for Linux 12.0 -

Citrix Receiver for Linux 12.0 offers exciting enhancements that offer HDX high definition user experience, better server scalability and efficiency class of higher bandwidth. Linux Receiver 12.0 aligns with XenDesktop 5.5 and XenApp 6.5, announced in August This version has been incubating for a long time (thank you to all those who provided comments on May Tech Preview!) And we are very pleased to enable our customers and partners get their hands on it.

Here are some of the main features of this version:

HDX MediaStream flash Redirection: flash Redirection single Citrix technology allows end users to play back high definition video and other Adobe flash content, while reducing bandwidth requirements and improve server scalability. We do this by leveraging the intelligence in the end user's device and play Flash content locally rather than on the server. This allows us to provide a significant performance improvement over competing technologies.

This release introduces our Flash Redirection technology on 32-bit Ubuntu and Fedora and the x86 platforms, and we are actively pursuing avenues to support other popular Linux distributions and platforms in the near future

advanced support HDX 3D Pro :. Linux receiver 12.0 introduces advanced support for Pro, our industry-leading solution to provide 3D high-end professional XenDesktop 5.5 HDX 3D graphics (see recent blog Derek Thorslund).

  • Support for specialized HDX 3D Pro codecs: HDX 3D Pro provides a deep compression to limited bandwidth WAN connections through a codec based on the GPU, and Linux Receiver 12.0 is capable of decoding data compressed deeply on either the CPU of the user device (minimum 2 GHz) or, where applicable, on the GPU. The benefit of the end user is a rich experience for professional graphics users with low bandwidth consumption
  • Multi-Monitor Suppo rt :. Pro ISN HDX 3D 't just for remote access; with multi-monitor support, it is also an excellent solution for replacement graphics workstation, to centralize processing 3D graphics in the data center. With this feature, users now have the freedom to not only use multiple monitors also organize in all configurations and mix-n-match them with the different resolutions and orientations.

The HDX 3D Pro features are available on x86 platforms

HDX RealTime Webcam Video Compression :. Before the intro uction of this technology, we have provided the generic USB redirection as a mechanism to support cameras for Unified Communications applications. While the technology worked well in LAN, it did not sit well in WAN environments and in difficult network conditions. With the introduction of Webcam Video Compression, we now compresses the webcam video before sending it to the server. This results in dramatic improvements in data traffic and provides a better user experience in LAN and WAN environments.

Our tests for this popular feature-based unified communications clients such as Skype, Microsoft Lync and our own GoToMeeting HDFaces. We believe that our generic solution is extensible through a wide array of unified communications clients and expect to add to the list over time

VoIP Support :. For VoIP applications, we have made significant reductions audio latency and improved resilience for longer calls

audio Support from several sources :. With the introduction of ALSA sound subsystem, we now support audio from multiple sources. With this enhancement, a user can, for example, to hear the ringing of an incoming call while watching a webcast by using the USB Headset

Password Expiration Support :. Before the introduction of this feature, on the expiry of their Directory password active users have to connect to their virtual desktop and change their password using the Windows interface. With this change, users are prompted to change their password expiration on the Linux client itself

Win7 VDA Smartcard Support :. With this feature, we allow now card authentication chip on virtual desktops running Windows 7.

Please download the latest Linux Receiver here and let us know what you think. The administration documentation can be found here. We think you will see that the improvements of this version make the Linux receiver an ideal solution for the replacement of office knowledge workers.

Thanks,

Ankur Shah, principal product manager for HDX

CC 5.0 Enhancements: Simplify Application Deployment Template -

It was that applications took the stage with Cloud and SaaS as innovations sometimes. The specific needs of the deployment unit took a 180 degree turn and became more specific application. The application models corroborate as a diligent solution in an application deployment

Applications such as SharePoint and OWA have specific configuration setting. Thanks to these specific needs NetScaler ADC provides application templates. These models consolidate the precise configuration needs a stencil configurations that can be easily exported and imported to multiple numbers of NetScaler appliances.

When NetScaler provides a tool, as a model of application, putting specific configuration information in a consolidated format, NetScaler Command Center operates smoothly this tool to spread across multiple NetScaler appliances in a few clicks.

NetScaler makes application models, but essentially Command Center allows potential!

once you decide to use the application model in collaboration with the command center, you will meet a well customized process to execute the deployment group. We will now walk through specific functions of this process step by step.

In the UI Command Center, you'll find an integrated task named "ImportApplicationTemplate" as pointed out above. Once you click it, it will open another window with details of the task. Under this you will find some commands that define this task and the variables of the task. the task of the variables are variables, which shows the type of variables input to the user when the task is executed.

In this window you will find some tabs. We will now introduce the relevance and functions of these tabs.

Run

This tab executed importing application model with as much devices you want to allow the deployment of the group.

Annex

Calendar tab will help you plan the import job templates on some intervals defined as indicated.

Execution Log

With execution log tab, you can always look at the state of the import operation, check the start time and end time, click the devices listed to display the command log and their status as well.

scheduled tasks

When you schedule multiple tasks like these, you will need to trace to ensure the integrity of the process set of import. This tab provides status information at the time of the scheduled import task, status and respective remarks regarding the task. Making it more convenient is that you can easily stop, resume, or remove any of these tasks with just a right click, then.

Export

Export tab will intelligently export the job to a specific location with just a button click.

Customize tasks

This tab lets you customize and build your own tasks such as -this. Enter the details of essential such as name, class and family device and check the appropriate check boxes. You can add commands. You can even mix standard previously defined commands and change the order of execution of orders right there using the functions mentioned in the "Actions" column. You can even add varying tasks that appear when the execution of the task, prompting you to select the necessary import files.

When sample application works in conjunction with NetScaler Command Center, the clubs all these functions and adds another layer of management. It does not provide the deployment of just group; it offers a customized deployment group that can be managed, monitored and executed in just a few clicks

Note :. This function only works with NetScaler 9.3 application templates

The party tonight ... even if it means "hair of the dog ';) -

Although I know variations are used in other countries across Europe, for those who do not know English colloquial expression, "the hair of the dog" refers to the consumption of a drink acoholic in order lessoning the effects of a hangover!

Now, I'm not saying that we all followed our busy days at the Summit and Synergy with a trip to the odd bar or two, but I'm willing to make an assumption that "some" of you / maybe we have been enjoying the side of the socialization of having all such a large group of our partners and customers together in a wonderful city like Barcelona.

I think the current meaning of 'perks' is better than the original, which refers to a method of treating a rabid dog bite by placing the dog's hair in the wound bite! Ewww ...

on things more style and glamor ...

... the Barcelona night life and more specifically, the style and sophistication of nightclubs along Barceloneta beach - places to see and be seen. Synergy Party This year offers the opportunity to sample Barcelona music, cuisine and the exciting atmosphere at five of the best clubs in the city. From 20:00 to midnight tonight, the Synergy participants can fall into Carpe Diem Lounge Club, Catwalk, Opium Mar, Shôko and Sotavento Beach Club to discover the specialties of each site. Enjoy appetizers, drinks, dancing and people watching each club and find your favorite!

The coaches will leave from 19:30 to CCIB and remember to take your bracelet that states which club you need to start your night so you are with your regional group. 22:00, it is free for all in all clubs.

Go there :)

Transform your Cloud in a business

Transform your Cloud in a business -

Today there are many solutions on the market that promise to enable service providers to get up and running quickly with a infrastructure as a service (IaaS) cloud. The reality is that, while these solutions can enable you to become cloud-ready from a level of infrastructure, there is a significant gap between a standing cloud with technology and become business ready and able start selling and merchandising your offer on the market. Since the early days of the cloud, Citrix has helped suppliers with technologies that help them get to market faster with solutions that are designed from the ground to the cloud. One of the key factors of our success with the construction of large public clouds is our intense focus on creating a business layer that bridges the gap between the implementation and delivery of services.

Take your IaaS cloud market requires loan business layer that will fill this gap. A layer that can offer you include:

(a) A portal for secure self-service that can stand alone or integrated with your fabric existing BSS

(b) A service catalog exposing products of underlying IaaS cloud that is available to customers for subscription and e-commerce

(c) A CRM module that allows you to track and monitor the activity of all your customer support with questions and problem tickets, and nourish a community experience that allows the sharing of knowledge through wikis and discussion forums

and above a layer that can process measured usage data - data that is completely unaware enterprise - from the underlying cloud and convert it into billable business information by applying aware mediation and listing rules.

At Citrix Synergy Barcelona, ​​we introduced Citrix® CloudPortal ™, our new product line that transforms raw cloud resources into real online businesses. As part of this product line, we are pleased to present "CloudPortal Business Manager" that provides you on business layer you need to take to market the IaaS cloud you built on Citrix CloudStack.

The dashboard CloudPortal

as the service provider your value proposition Purpose-built and completely unique. Whether your goal is developers who require close clouds at prices of utilities or companies who prefer managed clouds for recurring subscriptions, your differentiation must be surfaced all the way from the type infrastructure that is used at the lowest level to the way it is offered for trade and billed at the highest level. CloudPortal Business Manager allows you to do just that. Its integration out-of-the-box with Citrix CloudStack allows you to expose the IaaS offers products that can be grouped and offered in catalogs segmented with different prices. In addition, if customers need to be on-board differently - self-service retail class customers who pay by credit card / debit card or assisted service for enterprise customers who pay by POs and invoices, CloudPortal business Manager allows such use cases with measures to control fraud.

Show me the money

either your customers or end users yourself that business, you do not want to wait until the end of month billing period to see the use of your cloud. Want to see your expenditure (end user) or monetization (business) on an ongoing basis. end users CloudPortal Business allows manager to track their day to month expenses over expenditure budgets and service providers to track product performance and control credit risk through credit limits and triggers threshold billing.

cloud-proven and fast

While CloudPortal Business Manager seems relatively new on the market, however there already some big powers such as IDC Frontier cloud NOAH cloud, cloud nine times, and Tata Communications InstaCompute, supporting some cases very different use.

Finally, while the CloudPortal Business Manager today accelerates speed to market your IaaS cloud, not all. With our planned integration with CloudPortal Services Manager, the range of products CloudPortal allow service providers to offer a variety of services such as storage, desktop and applications, all in a seamless experience of single portal where use of different cloud computing services are aggregated and treated against, distinct billable client entities.

Catching Atlantis Computing

Catching Atlantis Computing -

I just managed to catch Max Gill, sales director for Northern Europe at Atlantis for advice on Summit & Synergy and the fields the company focuses on its customers

How do you think that Synergy has helped customers to watch desktop virtualization?

Citrix addressed four major obstacle, in my opinion, on the desktop virtualization fine -. complexity, cost, user experience and speed of processing

following Citrix partnered with the likes of Dell, Cisco and Fujitsu, fully built and solutions, including all appliances, computing and tested the networking to remove a layer of complex . As said Mark Templeton, the cost office needs to come down to less than the cost of a PC. It is encouraging to see the developments through the System-on-a-Chip announcement and RingCube acquisition.

In addition to being cheaper, the virtual desktop must also perform at least as well as a PC and HDX progress, partnership with Cisco WAAS and around unified communications -. are sure that the user experience a lightweight virtual desktop client are better than local

Finally, Citrix has taken huge steps to reduce the time to turn (with the software agreement Lakeside, Acquisition of App-DNA) that will allow customers to understand their environment, the application sets and to choose the appropriate model XenDesktop.

What is Atlantis do to help above?

We have announced support for XenServer so we can provide a solution at low cost to more customers looking for a single solution Citrix In addition, we launched a beta version XenApp to expand the use of our optimization product storage and performance both office hosted delivery methods (XA and XD). Using the same solution for both, customers can benefit from reduced complexity.

We have customers who have saved up to 93% on VDI storage costs and are looking for ways to reduce processing time for a desktop computer. Our goal is to enable customers to make instant transformation of their succession existing desktop to a virtual desktop without the need for large amounts of storage. Finally, we improve the user experience XenApp and XenDesktop by processing read and write IO storage before it touches.

A key policy for us is to embrace and extend Citrix all innovations and partner ecosystem to power the desktop virtualization adoption.

Cloud Cover: how far does your cloud really extend

Cloud Cover: how far does your cloud really extend -

In my last post, I discuss the subject of federated clouds. With the vast majority of federated cloud scenarios, the two sides have very different views of the proceedings, because a cloud federation is essentially asymmetrical relationship between the supplier and the consumer. Consumers want to be able to see their data center business and its cloud business as a unified whole; suppliers see a delegation of control over part of their technology to the consumer, so that it can be managed remotely. This delegation can occur at several levels:

  • The simplest (Saas) only allows remote operation of the supplier's application software, nothing more
  • next DaaS is simpler, which is like SaaS except that the application used remotely is an operating system (which can of course run other applications in it)
  • so we PaaS, allowing the operation of consumer applications delivered in the cloud with the discovery of the connection and the use of various service provider (database, etc.)
  • then comes IaaS, which allows control of the consumption of what is happening in the computing and storage fabric, which hypervisor to use (unless you are using VMware excuse for a cloud), but on a prescribed network configuration (usually flat)
  • and finally comes NaaS (as an add-on to IaaS, there is not much on its own), which allows more complex network topologies to be constructed by the consumer in the cloud (and between clouds)

(by the way, I'm not a fan of "WAAS" (Windows as a service). To my ears, it sounds like a British slang word for "urination".)

so we have a gradation of the extent to which the supervisory powers are delegated by the supplier to the consumer. Of course, the reality is not quite that simple, because it is almost certainly not a 1: 1 relationship between the supplier and the consumer, because the consumer can simultaneously use cloud services from multiple providers (with the federation who makes all look like a single entity) and a provider would quickly be out of business without multiple concurrent users (the task of keeping them being completely separate known as "multi-tenancy"). Whenever we focus on a single supplier-consumer connection (perhaps in order to understand how the connection is structured), we must remember that this is a simplification which should not be considered as the normal state of things.

. But back to the simplified procedure 'a supplier, a consumer "model, because I'm about to complicate it by other means

First, there is the question of what kind of infrastructure is the consumer using, is a collection of virtualized machines, or a true cloud infrastructure (noting, for VMware users, that they are not the same) the answer can make a substantial difference to the way? the consumer would be improved to manage their data center. of course, it is possible to add virtual machines to cloud-based virtualized data center, but it will be difficult to hide the junction between these two types of infrastructure technology. True cloud federation allows the connection to be hidden if necessary, and this is much more likely to occur if the consumer is also running a cloud infrastructure in their own data center.

Ideally, consumers should seriously consider implementing the same type of cloud infrastructure as their preferred cloud service providers. This would be supported by the (perhaps somewhat naive) premise that software companies will build their IaaS software in such a way that it will be very quickly and easily federate with another instance of itself. Of course, consumers may well as a choice of the supplier, and can not be happy to have their choice restricted only to vendors using a particular implementation IaaS. I think it would be safe to say that Citrix aims to "more choice" end of the spectrum, an attitude that is not universal.

But will any implementing IaaS enough? If the consumer is required to establish a sort of strict separation between one of its business divisions - perhaps for compliance reasons, or perhaps simply to operate chargeback IT - then it will actually need to launch its own multi-tenant infrastructure, although that is only used internally. For these consumers, NaaS could be very useful, especially if their organization has a relatively fluid structure, such as the level of network is ideal for partitioning through an appropriate topology. (It should be recalled that all cloud infrastructure is sophisticated enough to provide secure multi-tenancy.)

So the ideal cloud consumer must be able to federate with the clouds of several different suppliers and may also provide secure multi-tenancy its business divisions, so that their cloud usage is both independent of each other and invisible for the other divisions. We park the summary and return shortly

Now, one of the most touted advantages of cloud computing is supposed to be elastic -. The promise that your data center can develop in the cloud without limit. All very well, but the thought of a moment should tell you that data centers even the largest suppliers are finite, and that for the smallest supplier of lack of accommodation power could be a big problem, perhaps a pitfall. So suppliers (and this is confirmed by the known requirements) should also be able to extend the elastic services they offer to the customer by the somewhat recursive extension of their own elastic infrastructure in the installation of another service providers. This leads to a situation in which the company's customer of a service provider that can actually be located with a provider that is at least one hop away, and perhaps longer available. The problem for the consumer is that these jumps are hidden from them, and so they have no idea which provider gives them the service they use; many of you will already have spotted that this is a performance potential nightmare

Nevertheless, this extension of the suppliers of space is a necessary evil to make things work smoothly, although there three important corollaries:

- first, harking back to our observation parked earlier, we see that the cloud of the ideal consumer (to be run in an enterprise data center) has exactly the same requirements that the ideal cloud provider, in terms of the need to both provide and use cloud infrastructure services. The consumer may be able to get out without offering multi-tenancy, but both supplier and consumer must be able to seamlessly extend several other cloud offerings. And any infrastructure cloud creator supposed to have, but a set of source code for both, even if the marketing and packaging may differ

-. Second, the ability of a supplier to rent some consumers from another provider of cloud is an essential prerequisite to the establishment for suppliers of a secondary market for spare cloud capacity eventually to become automated exchange, which seems the appropriate direction to something that is becoming a commodity

-. Third, the potential performance issues encountered when using a VM hosted several deep providers may not be acceptable, and therefore there must be a method to discover before used his service likely performance characteristics, the nesting depth, or both. This is where SLAs for cloud computing just because it is the only method, it is promising and the acceptance of an appropriate level of service before actual use. Let me quote Arjuna as an example of a company doing excellent work in this area

So to summarize :. The needs of consumers and suppliers are more alike than one might think at first. Nesting service delivery can occur, and the only defense is ALS, which if written law can also be used to negotiate the use of space cloud space and thus open a new secondary market. And the underlying message to cloud software vendors is: make sure your IaaS can provide handful of ALS automatically if you do not want to be left out of the market ...

Expand your XenApp environments for Virtual Desktops

Expand your XenApp environments for Virtual Desktops -

I have heard many people talk about how to start their desktop transformation projects when they are looking to 5000 workstations . How do you even start? The number of workstations, users and applications is so overwhelming many may not even understand how to start. The office environment is so vast that to any change seems impossible. But it is impossible if you start properly.

You must learn to crawl before you can walk. You must learn to walk before we can run. For those of you who are hosting applications via XenApp, you are already crawling. And learning to walk is fairly easy and takes little time.

Think about it, you have a hosted integrated infrastructure. You use HDX. You already manage your enterprise applications online. You have already begun to turn your desktop; we just need to go a little further.

And these additional steps that we will discuss at the next TechTalk Ask the Architect on November 9 e 2PM Eastern Time.

do not forget to register and get on your calendar. I look forward to seeing you

CC 5.0 Enhancements: Enhancements Syslog Search

CC 5.0 Enhancements: Enhancements Syslog Search -

Syslog are useful tools for management and system audit and analysis of information for purposes debugging. If well presented, these logs can be of great use. NetScaler command center can monitor syslog events NetScaler ADC devices when configured as syslog server for NetScaler ADC devices. Once you've done that, all syslog messages will be redirected to the central server control.

This allows the command center to present these logs the user in a structural manner. Now the question is, why do we see our syslog configuration command center when you can see them on the NetScaler appliance?

NetScaler Command Center presents these newspapers legible tabular format and allows you to perform advanced searches in various ways and build views for data analysis system log.

As shown in the snapshot above, Syslog data gets extracted and presented with details on the date / time of the newspaper Source as the IP address of the device, the event ID and message. Now, as you can see, there are 2361 entries in these logs. To find something specific in these logs will be equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystackJ. In such situations, you have an option to search by Advanced Search tab (highlighted in Figure 1).

The advanced search options allow you to search logs by two levels of filtering. The first level allows you to classify Date newspapers, Event ID, installation, message, severity and Source. Second level of filtering allows you to define operations on the value returned by the first filter

There were two Syslog research improvements in NetScaler Command Center 5.0 :.

Enhancement Key 1 : The " between " operation "date" advanced research

As shown in Figure 2 Command Center 5.0 introduces between research operation designed to filter logs based on Date / Time information in newspapers.

here, we have the first filter Date and the second level filter between . In the next two fields you get to enter the beach from which you want the log list to lead. When you click Research youwill a list of logs located between the intervals defined by you. In this case, we get a result 42 newspapers lying between November 18,2011 1:43:52 p.m. - November 18,2011 13:28:00 time slot on a list 2361 logs !

now, it's fun!

As seen with this example, this operation allows you to get more granular search results that is after and is before operations

Improved key 2 . The Comma delimited search for Syslog messages

Research comma delimited as presented in Figure 3 , filter logs with " remote_ip 10.102.31.143" and the string " ERROR" in a single search. As shown in Figure 4 This filter logs with " remote_ip 10.102.31.143" log entries, "ERROR" log entries and log entries with both the string " remote_ip 10.102.31.143" and " ERROR" present in them.

For this part of the blog I think we've established, USP Syslog is on NetScaler Command Center and introduced major improvements made in NetScaler Command Center (CC ) version 5.0.

That's it for now. Expect more blogs on key improvement in CC 5.0.

3 Steps to Success in 2012 -

Are you willing to sell the new Citrix? At the Barcelona summit, Al Monserrat, senior vice president, Sales and Services, gave us three things to succeed in the new environment of mobile work styles, cloud computing and business transformation:

  1. sell virtualization office
  2. Build a networking practice
  3. engaging with Microsoft

Start with XenDesktop, virtualization workstation the most complete on the market, providing user mobility securely. Your customers want to allow their employees to WORKshift - passing from one device to another quickly and safely. The way to do this is XenDesktop.

Then build a practice of networking by offering your customers a total solution with NetScaler, providing advanced application and service delivery. This will allow your customers to be ahead of the curve with the changes the cloud and virtualization bring.

Finally, engage with Microsoft to sell more, sell faster and provide a more strategic solution to your customers. The best way to learn how to engage with Microsoft is through the countryside V-Alliance. As a member you get access to special sales and marketing tools, content and promotions, as well as Citrix and Microsoft training offers.

Voila! 1, 2, 3 ... Happy selling in 2012.

Citrix CloudGateway 1.0 ist verfügbar - der erste Unified Service Broker auf dem Markt -

Auf der Synergy im Oktober 2011 in Barcelona hat Citrix CloudGateway angekündigt. Ah sofort verfügbar ist als Produkt CloudGateway.

CloudGateway ist die Antwort auf die wachsende Anzahl von Windows-, SaaS, Web- und Anwendungen mobilen, IT und die Endbenutzer in Unternehmensumgebungen nutzen.

Warum CloudGateway

Unternehmen sehen sich heute immer stärker mit zwei großen Trends konfrontiert: Konsumerisierung und der IT Cloud-Sourcing von Anwendungen. Diese beiden sind die Trends treibende Kraft, die immer zu einer Zahl größeren a unterschiedlichsten Endgeräten und Anwendungen innerhalb von Unternehmen führt. Auf der einen Seite gibt es mehr und mehr Smartphones, Tablets und mobile andere Endgeräte wie zB Ultrabooks, die auch von Mitarbeitern selbst angeschafft werden und die diese Geräte auch für ihre Arbeit nutzen wollen, und auf der anderen Seite gibt es den neben klassischen Windows Anwendungen mehr und mehr Anwendungen, die Unternehmen auf often Abteilungsebene taktisch Web- und als SaaS bezogen -Anwendung werden und die ihr haben eigenes Zugriffs-management. Dies alles bringt das jedoch traditional IT Konzept der der zentralen Bereitstellung und Kontrolle von Anwendungen und immer Endgeräten stärker Wanken ins.

Während Cloud-Anwendungen und Mobilität religious im Fokus stehen, werden diese nicht einfach Bestehende Anwendungen und Umgebungen ablösen, sondern jedes Unternehmen wird eine Zukunft in immer stärker heterogenere Mischung von Anwendungen im Applikations-Portfolio haben - eine aus Windows Mischung - Web-, SaaS und Anwendungen mobilen. Windows Anwendungen und werden weiterhin für Nutzer Desktops - Citrix Umfeld im über und optimal XenApp XenDesktop - bereitgestellt, wenn diese auch immer nicht mehr auf einem Windows Endgerät genutzt werden, sondern auf einem Nicht zunehmend-Windows-Endgerät. Heterogenität der Anwendungen, verschiedene Arten von Endgeräten Wünsche der Nutzer und Anwendungen von unterschiedliche Bereitstellung (oder über private ÖFFENTLICHE Clouds) zu haben und der Vielfalt wachsenden Nicht der IT-Homogenität beigetragen.

In dieser Situation benötigen Unternehmen einen einheitliche-Service Broker, der die alles zusammenführt, Kontrollmöglichkeiten zentrale für die IT und Anwendungen und zurückbringt alle Daten für jeden einfach auf jedem Benutzer Endgerät bereitstellt.

Mit CloudGateway 1.0 erhält die jetzt eine einfache und IT sichere Lösung für die Daten und Bereitstellung go Anwendungsarten im Unternehmen. Endanwender erhalten einen intuitiv nutzbaren zentralen Zugriffsort mit und einen Citrix Receiver self-service store, um zu nutzen überall alle ihre Anwendungen auf jedem Endgerät und können. CloudGateway integriert ist in die komplett Citrix Receiver-Infrastruktur, die für PC, Mac, tablets, Smartphones und ist verfügbar. Zudem bietet für Citrix Receiver Web Browser für die gleiche Funktionalität Endgeräten auf, auf denen der möglicherweise Citrix Receiver werden kann nicht installiert oder darf.

Availability

CloudGateway 1.0 ist ab sofort in zwei Editionen erhältlich:

  • CloudGateway Enterprise bietet einen Endanwendern zentralen Zugriff und Self-Service für Windows-, Web- und SaaS-Anwendungen der über jedes Endgerät und gibt ein und IT kontextbezogene Kontrollmöglichkeiten automatisiertes User Provisioning für alle Arten von Anwendungen.
  • CloudGateway Express ermöglicht als Lösung kostenfreie bestehenden XenApp XenDesktop-und-Kunden, alle ihre Anwendungen und virtuellen Windows Desktops für jedes Endgerät bereitzustellen. Kunden können auch ein Upgrade auf späteres CloudGateway Enterprise durchführen und die Lösung zu einem so kompletten App Store für Windows, Web-Anwendungen und SaaS-erweitern.

XenClient Best Practices Series - Using an ISO with XenClient

XenClient Best Practices Series - Using an ISO with XenClient -

The team Citrix XenClient is the kickoff of a series of articles XenClient Best Practices. In our first article of 2012, we will explain how to mount an image file on the virtual disk in a XenClient VM. Typically, our customers are doing this so they can install an operating system from an ISO file. This is an alternative to installing the operating system from a DVD

The following are step by step :.

1. In Citrix Receiver for XenClient, bring up a terminal window (CTRL-SHIFT-T) and enter the password you created during installation of XenClient.

2. Run the following command to enable access to remote files: set enable-ssh xec true

3 . Identify the IP address used by XenClient by clicking the Network icon and selecting Login Information .

4.1. Copy the image file from another computer to the XenClient system. In this example, I use the free program WinSCP (available here http://winscp.net/eng/download.php), but SCP program will work. Make sure the ISO file extension uses lowercase or it will not be visible in the GUI. For example, use XP.iso instead of XP.ISO.

4.2. Start WinSCP and connect to the XenClient system. The host name is the IP address determined in step 3. The username is root and the password is the same password that you used in step 1.

4.3. On the left side, navigate to the directory containing the ISO file. On the right side, go to the / Storage / isos.

4.4. Drag the ISO to / storage / isos to copy the file.

5. Once the file has been copied to the XenClient device, while focusing on Citrix Receiver for XenClient, press Ctrl-Q to refresh the user interface.

6.1. Create a new VM.

6.2. Click Add VM icon.

6.3. Select Install from drive.

6.4. Go through the wizard and select the last step Create VM & Install OS later .

7.1. Map of the ISO file to the VM:

7.2. Hover the VM you just created and click Details .

7.3. Click the Equipment tab.

7.4. Click Change .

7.5. Click the dropdown menu next to Tools CD and select the ISO that you imported.

7.6. Click Save .

8. When you start the virtual machine, it will boot to ISO.

9. Do not forget to raise the xc-tools.iso after you have finished installing the operating system by following step 7 and selecting xc-tools.iso from the menu. You will need the tools mapped to your VM to install the PV drivers in the guest OS.

How to install Citrix Receiver on Android Emulator for Windows

How to install Citrix Receiver on Android Emulator for Windows -
Since those days I develop content for my next workshop "Mobilize Your Business Apps" in Germany. The goal is to provide knowledge for software developers to write mobilized and friendly touch applications hosted on Citrix XenApp using Citrix mobility SDK.
for testing purposes, I am using the Android emulator with Citrix Receiver for Android on my Windows 7 Machine
Here's a guide to create your own Android virtual test environment :.
The Android SDK depends Java Developer environment. So first of all, you must install the Java SE development kit from
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u2-download-1377129.html.
A once you have installed the JDK you must install the Android SDK
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.
you need to install the Android SDK Platform Tools and I recommend installing all the latest version of Android options
After installation is complete, you can create your own virtual Android device running the Android Virtual Device Manager in the Windows Start menu. -> Android SDK Tools AVD Manager.
I created a new virtual device by using the default options.
In the next step, you must obtain Citrix Receiver for Android http://www.citrix.com/downloads. Receiver for Android is a file assembled in a single .apk file. After downloading successfully move the file to % ProgramFiles% Android android-sdk platform-tools
Start your newly created Android device to open a command shell and change the directory % ProgramFiles% Android android-sdk platform-tools .
To the installation of new applications, it is a small command line tool called adb.exe. You must run the following command to install the receiver in your virtual device running:
 ADB install CitrixReceiver-market-upload_3.0.60.apk 

(change the name file for later)

That's all.
now, you can start Citrix Receiver and connect to your XenApp or XenDesktop environment.
Regards
Christian

Lock piracy and parallel to the IT security

11:43 AM Add Comment
Lock piracy and parallel to the IT security -

My son got a new lock for school yesterday, it is a model 1500i Master Lock. As opposed to the classic wheel twist, this new modern lock has a joystick sequence to open. Push the bar: Up, Down, Left, Right, and then pull to open. It brings home; Hey Dad, look at this shiny new lock! As a computer programmer, my immediate response was "wow, this is not much space key"!

The default password is 4 steps 4 shares = 4 ** 4 = 128 possible combinations possibilities. On average, it will take only half that of brute force the key to this lock is "quite open". An entry every 10 seconds means about 10 minutes of hard effort and the lock is

Note: .. There is much good for the school, but stick with me on the idea

combination is user adjustable

Being from a family of mind security, my son change the password so it now 5 positions! This multiplies the key space conceptually 4 giving 512 combinations and increasing the average brute force to 256!

Would it be better than 10 actions? Sure, but it's like telling people to have more passwords ultimately you can not remember and it takes a very long time to come.

Comparison with conventional locks

I went to the store for lunch today and bought a lock master conventional locking dial. It has 3 digital selections in the range of 0..39. 40 ** 3 = 64,000 possible combinations. Much better! On average, I have to try 32,000 times to brute force.

used the key of space vs.

The conventional lock has 40 numbers, but you can "miss a bit" and the lock will still open. This means that 40 positions are not really 40. It is also the thing that the latest issue can really be judged continuously while turning the wheel, you can depress the key space quickly.

Understand it would be good to have a real specific number, I went looking.

The power of Google search finds college class materials Professor Traynor at Georgia Tech, which includes references to a document by Matt Blaze (see page 5 PDF) studying the problem. The example of the class uses a commercial security lock with 100 positions = 100 ** 3, which reduced to 22,300 real possibilities once you get rid of the "fluff" and invalid passwords. For example, there are whole regions of the ring that may be used for the last number. The 0..39 master lock is bound to be much less. Again, there is much good for school children

I must say, really cool that GA Tech has a class on piracy locks

Okay. - . I am lost in the calculation.

Back to the point: The password is not really important. Whether the number of tests is 256 for locking the handle, or 22,300 for a fairly good commercial security, it is even easier to attack the lock otherwise.

time to study

You can kill too much time with this, but visit youtube and search for "Hack Master Lock". Here you will find 47 children under 5 showing you how to use a coke box and a pair of scissors to bypass the lock master "password" in minutes. Each of them can do it in less than 15 seconds, but I must say that very few do it with good lighting, cinematography is generally poor and they always have their hands covering the lock at the precise moment of clarity!

swallowed a coke and tried it myself, a good time. So far I have not managed to do it, but I will!

The key thing to note is that the quick method for hacking the lock does not even touch the dial password! No matter how many numbers are the password, no one will enter!

comparisons to computer security

We are all excited, "Passwords should be really long and must include special characters"! Communication protocols must use "very long keys!" RSA 2048 is surely better than RSA 1024! Make sure you change your password every 60 days! This is all great, but when a 5 year old with a "coke can" can bypass the password all together, the whole discussion of the length of the password lack rather the point.

Keeping things protected in computers is ... difficult. We connect to the Internet and tell the world not to enter. He is difficult. Foreigners are not trustworthy! Insiders are not trustworthy. You are not trustworthy. You are director hacked too!

I find the coke can hacking an interesting topic. The parallels to IT security are too fun to pass up - and a little disturbing

Hopefully you enjoyed this ...

XenClient Best Practices Series - Disable Local VM Creation -

Updated 09/02/2012

With a click of the mouse, administrators can establish XenClient policies in the Synchronizer to control what users are allowed to do so. There are also commands that can be executed on the client to monitor the user in other ways. Admins may want to prevent users from creating or deleting local virtual machines, for example, if the system is used in a kiosk or at school. Admins may also want to prevent users from upgrading the software to ensure that XenClient XenClient and Synchronizer remain on the same version. To run these commands on a XenClient system, just open a terminal window (Ctrl-Shift-T), type the command, and press Enter.

Disable local VM Creation

By default, XenClient users can create virtual machines.

If an administrator wants to prevent users from creating virtual machines, they can execute the following command:

false download set xec vm -Creation-authorized

After executing the command, users can not create or VM.

Disable VM deletion

default, XenClient users can delete a VM by pointing to it, click details , then clicking Clear

An administrator can disable this feature by running the following command :.

xec vm-delete-authorized false set

After executing the command, the ability to delete a virtual machine can not be selected.


Disable software updates

Default the XenClient users can update the XenClient software by pointing to a web server and clicking on Check for update button

a administrator can remove the ability to update the XenClient software by running the following command :.

xec set ota -upgrades-allowed false

After executing the command, the Check for Updates option disappears.

Of course, all these commands can be reversed by running them again and change "false" to "true".
