McAfee has released a beta for it’s new version of ePolicy Orchestrator management solution.
This post will describe the installation of the ePolicy Orchestrator server.
First of all download the software here (downloadable after registring as a beta tester).
Important Note: Target Device hotfixes can be deployed only on the Master Target Device. You can install Target Device hotfix on a device that has not been imaged to a vDisk as a fresh installation, or on a device that has been imaged to a vDisk as an upgrade installation.
For fresh installations, see eDocs, the Citrix product documentation library.
For upgrade installation, complete the following steps:
Uninstalling Provisioning Services from the Original Hard Drive on Master Target Device Continue reading “Citrix Provisioning Service 6.1 Target Device hotfix lnstall guide”
Citrix has released a 3 page installation checklist for your ShareFile Storage Zones.
Download this checklist here.
In the previous posts I have explained to you how to install the software and how you can create your first environment. Here’s the overview of the previous, current and yet to come posts and the Excalibur Tech Preview.
In this post we are going to configure the StoreFront for use with Excalibur.
Go to the bottom left of the screen and open the tiles interface (or use Windows key ). Select the StoreFront tile which will show by know. Open StoreFront now. Continue reading “How to install Citrix Excalibur Tech Preview (part 4)”
In my previous posts I covered the prerequisites and the installation of the next generation of XenApp and XenDesktop called “Excalibur”.
In this post I will cover the “Studio” part of the configuration of Excalibur.
When the installation is complete and you launch the “Studio” application you are presented with this screen. From this “Welcome” page you can create an empty site , create a full deployment or join an existing deployment. As this is the first installation the latter option obviously doesn’t apply. Continue reading “How to install Citrix Excalibur Tech Preview (part 3)”
In the previous post I explained what the prerequisites are and what Excalibur is. In this post I’ll be showing you the basic installation of Excalibur. This setup is a single server with all options installed on 1 server. This is good for a test or PoC environment but never for a production environment. Always separate the database, StoreFront and delivery controller from each other.

Citrix has released the Tech Preview of Excalibur recently (beginning of November). This new version is a melt between XenDesktop and XenApp as we know it now. So for all of the XenApp fans I must disappoint you…. No more XenApp!!!
My idea is to cut it up in a couple of blog posts to keep it from being one big long, and not fun to read, post. So I split it up in a couple of posts which I will be spreading over a few days.
So to begin with the first part of the series straight away is a brief overview of what Excalibur is, the prerequisites and how my little test lab is setup.
What is Excalibur Continue reading “How to install Citrix Excalibur Tech Preview (part 1)”
It has been a while since I posted a how-to guide. In this post I will show you how-to install McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 4.6.4.
To download ePolicy Orchestrator 4.6.4, go to the McAfee downloads site at: http://www.mcafee.com/us/downloads/downloads.aspx. Be aware that a valid NAI grant number is necessary for download.
After you downloaded the installation files you can unzip it to any location of your choosing.
Note 1. In this post I installed ePolicy Orchestrator on a test machine with a local SQL express version installed. In a production environment it is highly recommended to install a full SQL (2005 or higher) version on a seperate server.

Citrix has released Receiver 3.3 a while ago now. But every now and then I see that people are having difficulties with installing it.
Receiver 3.3 assumes that you are working with the new way of publishing apps and desktops. When you are still using the webplugin only (for use with Web Interface) and you are not publishing apps and desktops through StoreFront/ Cloudgateway then you can run into some “issues” with installing Receiver 3.3.
The provided solution is a workaround to bypass the “Enter your work or email or server address” message at the end of the installation.
Here’s what you see during the normal installation of the Receiver 3.3 downloaded straight from the Citrix downloads website. Continue reading “How to install Citrix Receiver 3.3”
