With the recent success of Apple’s new iPad, all other manufacturers are fighting over who can release the rival to take on Apple. As you most undoubtedly now, HP has finished it’s acquisition of Palm and intends to release a tablet based of off the loved Web OS. Dell has also showed it’s desire to be in the tablet business with the Dell Streak, which has just been released in Europe, and show be coming soon to the US. I must admit that I expected a lot of companies to want to rival the iPad’s success, but there is one thing I didn’t see coming…Cisco.
A recent Citrix KB article on best practices for tuning XenApp 5 on Windows 2003 to maximize the number of users per server can be found here.
If you are installing Citrix XenApp 5.0 and creating a new farm do not install .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2, as doing so will prevent the XenApp Delivery Services Console “Run Discovery” from finding the farm. Citrix does not have a workaround for this yet and your only option will be starting over with a clean Windows installation.
Once Windows 2003 SP2 is installed it’s OK to run Microsoft Update and install the required updates, just don’t select the optional updates to .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 or .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 2.
