Hello Professionals,

What is Xen-App : A Client software that enable access to    available or configured resources from any device. A virtualization application tool that make available to access that application without installing on there device.All that require to install a plugins to deliver this from server end to client end.

Lab Setup:

Client : Windows 7

Here we are installing Citrix Xen App on member server.


Add Server Roles
 It more and more depend on organization requirement then license, that for which edition you are authorise.

 Shadowing is very interesting part in this section.If we enable this shadowing option, it allows to see you other user session. You can monitor, interact, view. If this option is prohibited then to enable this, only re-installation is the solution. you can not change after completing the setup.So will go with Allow option.
 next with default options.

 EdgeSight is a performance and availability management solution for Xen App systems. EdgeSight monitors applications, devices, sessions, license usage, and the network in real time, allowing users to quickly analyse, resolve, and pro-actively prevent problems

Like Default only.
