Kicking them w2k16 tyres – Part 1 Installing Citrix XenApp 7.9
Step by step installation of Citrix XenApp 7.9 on Windows 2016 TP 5 on Azure environment
Requirements
MyCitrix ID to download XenApp 7.9 ISO image and license key
Azure subscription to create your Windows 2016 TP virtual machine
First download the ISO image for Citrix Xenapp 7.9 and license
Azure Virtual Machine Installation
Sign-on to your Azure portal and choose Virtual Machines
Click New and From Gallery and on the drop down list choose Windows Server 2015 Technical Preview 5 and click the bottom right arrow to continue
Enter your Virtual machine configuration screen details and click the bottom right arrow to continue
On the next screen make sure to choose the same Virtual network subnet that you have for your local domain controller so as to ensure you have authentication capability to the domain and click bottom right arrow to continue
On the last Virtual machine configuration review which extensions you need (in my case I choose the defaults) and click bottom right tick box to continue
Virtual machine will install – after some time on your main Azure VM dashboard should see a status of “running” for your new virtual machine. Double-click it and verify on the bottom right-hand pane the internal IP address that has been granted.
From that you will be in a position to RDP to the system and configure to join your Azure-based AD domain. Next steps will be to install Citrix XenApp 7.9 on your new system
Citrix XenApp 7.9 Installation steps
Within Azure VM after logging on click the folder icon on the bottom pane
Within virtual Machine navigate to the location you downloaded your XenApp 7.9 ISO image, right-click and choose Mount
Double-click AutoSelect
Click Start to the right of the XenApp Deliver applications
As this is the first system in our XenApp site we need to add a Delivery Controller to accept so on the next screen click Delivery Controller to continue
On the Software License Agreement screen choose the radio button beside I have read, understand, and accept the terms of the license agreement and click Next to continue
As Windows 2016 is not production ready(so not “Enterprise” ready) can safely just look to leave defaults as is (so all items ticked and click Next to continue
In the Features screen leave as default again (so both items ticked) and click Next to continue
On the Firewall screen click Next to continue
On the Summary screen click Install to continue
After a short while should see the following message. Click Close to continue – system will restart – if installation doesn’t immediately resume may need to run AutoSelect from the ISO after logon (if you have launched the ISO from file explorer) and repeat steps above and installation will resume.
On the Call Home screen choose the appropriate option (to be honest in my instance I was intrigued to see if I did participate in the Call Home (as this is non-production) but I opted for the “I do not want to participate in Call Home.” And click Next
On the Finish Installation screen click Finish to continue, it will automatically launch Citrix Studio management console
Next part of your kicking tyres series is looking at adding a Windows 2016 Virtual Desktop Agent system
