Citrix Access Suite 4.5: "VOS" - Virtualization, Optimization, and Streaming

Far more than just the flagship "Presentation Server" product, Citrix has widened its scope to be the "Access Infrastructure" of the organization, providing "Access consolidation", along with server and management console consolidation. Rather than stringing together various networking products, with each implementation a unique patchwork, the Citrix Access Suite offers a comprehensive end-to-end solution for access to the enterprise that begins to look at IT as a service that can be bundled and implemented almost instantly, enhancing business aspects of continuity, regulatory compliance, off shoring & outsourcing, data security, workforce flexibility and mobility, mergers and acquisitions, and branch office expansion.

"Organizations can now opt for a truly universal printer driver; therefore, minimizing or eliminating native drivers becomes a reasonable alternative” – from the Citrix CCIA (Citrix Certified Integration Architect) 4.0 program.

One of the biggest threats to the stability of a Citrix implementation is having non-authorized print drivers loaded on the Citrix servers, and then replicated across the server farm.

 Tips and Tricks
AIE- updating an app in an isolated environment

If the older version of Office resides in the main application environment of the serer farm, and the new version of Office is in the Silo, periodic Office updates are going to have to be installed into the Silo.

Use the AIESETUP command to apply service packs or updates to applications installed into an isolation environment. For example, to install a service pack to an application installed in Silo2, do the following:

If the update is in the form of an MSI-based file: AIESETUP “Silo2” msiexec /update MSIPatchName.msp

For a non MSI based patch, use AIESETUP as follows:
AIESETUP “Silo2” PatchProgramName
