System Requirements for Server Roles

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-08-29The sections in this topic describe supported platforms, required software, and other information that will be used when

you install and configure the core components (server roles) that comprise the Services Manager platform. The Services

Manager server role installer (Setup Tool) handles many of the prerequisites, such as installing .NET Framework 4.0, enabling

Web Server roles, and enabling MSMQ features. (The .NET software is also available in the Support folder of the Services

Manager installation media.) See Plan for deploying the Services Manager platform for additional preparation information.

Active Directory and Exchange requirements

Services Manager supports Active Directory Domain Services on the following platforms:Windows Server 2012 R2

Windows Server 2012

Windows Server 2008 R2

Windows Server 2008

At a minimum, the domain functional level must be Windows Server 2008.

Before the Services Manager platform can be deployed, the Active Directory schema must be extended to include thestandard Exchange attributes and prepare the environment for multi-tenancy. You can extend the schema through one ofthe following methods:

Use the Schema Prep tool from the Microsoft Exchange installation media. This method applies if you do not plan to

deploy Exchange 2007 or 2010 and you do not intend to deploy the Exchange web service. In general, to deploy the

Schema Prep tool, you enter the following command in a Command Prompt window:

setup /p /on:OrganizationNameDeploy Exchange. This method applies if you plan on installing the Exchange web service in your Services Manager

deployment. Extending the Active Directory schema is part of the Exchange deployment process.

The domain user account used to extend the Active Directory schema or install the Services Manager platformcomponents must belong to the following groups:

Group Name Required for Services Manager platforminstallation

Required for extending Active Directoryschema

Domain Admins Yes Yes

EnterpriseAdmins

No Yes

Schema Admins No Yes

If any server (including DNS) is not in the domain, the same user account should be set up as a local user on that server with

the same password, as a member of the local Administrators group.

Security requirements

Page 6: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.6https://docs.citrix.com

To ensure your deployment is protected from external threats, consider creating an account lockout policy that disables a

user's account for a specified period when an incorrect password is entered a specified number of times. When this policy is

set each failed logon attempt is recorded on the primary domain controller.

Before implementing an account lockout policy, consider carefully the risks and benefits of implementation to your Services

Manager deployment. For more information about configuring this policy, see the Microsoft TechNet article, "Account

Lockout Policy Technical Overview."

DNS requirements

Services Manager uses DNS aliases internally for the core components. Create CNAME records for the following roles andcomponents:

Platform component Alias

Encryption Service server CSMCORESVC

Database server CORTEXSQL

Provisioning server CORTEXPROVISIONING

Web server CORTEXWEB

Reporting Services CORTEXREPORTS

Encryption Service requirements

The Encryption Service allows the secure retrieval of encryption keys using the AES 256-bit encryption method. When youinstall the service, a new AES key is generated, encrypted, and stored in Windows Registry. For more information, see Planfor deploying the Services Manager platform.Important: Citrix strongly recommends using SSL with the Encryption Service. Because the traff ic to and from the servicecontains sensitive data, using SSL ensures this traff ic is encrypted appropriately.Citrix recommends installing the Encryption Service on a dedicated server; however, you can also install it on a server that

hosts other Services Manager components (such as the Provisioning server or Web server).

When preparing a server for installing and configuring the Encryption Service, ensure the following requirements are met:

Hardwareconfiguration

Two or more server-class processors, 2.0 GHz or higher.

Minimum 2 GB RAM recommended

Minimum 2 GB free disk space available for f ile growth

Operating system Windows Server 2008 R2 (minimum) Standard, Enterprise, and Datacenter editions, with allrecommended updates installed.

.NET version .NET Framework 4.0 installed. This software is included in the Support folder on the ServicesManager installation media.

Firewall requirements for Services Manager

Sep 14 , 2015

Updated: 2014-08-15Services Manager requires specific firewall ports be open to support communication between platform components. The

following diagram illustrates the required ports and the platform components that use each port in an environment that

includes a primary location and a remote location.

The following table lists the default connectivity configuration between the Services Manager roles. Configure thesebefore installing the roles.

Plan

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-04-18When deploying Services Manager, you have many choices of deployment designs and features which you can tailor to theneeds of the services you want to offer and the customers you serve. A typical process of planning a Services Managerdeployment includes:

Becoming familiar with Services Manager setup by creating a one-server or two-server test deployment.

Determining the number of servers you need for your deployment, deciding which roles each server will perform, and

evaluating hardware requirements.

Deciding which services you want to offer customers and resellers, and determining the deployment requirements for

each service.

Creating the network infrastructure design.

Defining the installation processes.

Creating and testing a pre-production pilot deployment based on your design.

Releasing the deployment into production.

Deployment Overview

A typical Services Manager deployment process includes:Phase 1: Services Manager platform

Phase 2: Services deployment

Phase 3: Customer and user provisioning

Phase 1: Services Manager platform

The Services Manager platform represents a series of servers that perform provisioning tasks, authenticate and manageusers, host the control panel interface and API services, store and process data from the main database, and manage billingand usage. These servers must be fully configured before services are deployed. A Services Manager deployment includesthe following core components (or server roles) that you install and configure:Web server

The web server hosts the control panel’s web interface and API services. The control panel is the primary user interface for

service providers, resellers and end-customer users. The customer administrator can manage the organization’s users and

associated services within the same system. Users can perform administrative and self-service tasks that have been

delegated to them. Provisioning requests are sent from the web server to the Provisioning Engine through a Microsoft

Message Queue.

Databases

The main system databases are the Microsoft SQL Server repositories for user, customer, and configuration information.

Several system databases are automatically created when you install and configure the server roles. The Services Manager

Reporting Service uses Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.

Provisioning Engine

The Provisioning Engine performs all provisioning tasks. It expedites requests from the web server and automates managed

services and resources.

Directory web service

The Directory web service provides the web server with function calls related to Active Directory, such as user

authentication, user account status inquiries, user enabling and disabling, and security group management.

Data warehouse

Page 15: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.15https://docs.citrix.com

The data warehouse performs scheduled storage of historical data from the main system database, and manages the

creation and sending of usage and billing reports.

Report Mailer

The Report Mailer gathers anonymous usage data and emails usage reports to the Citrix license monitor. Customer and

user information is not transferred, only the number of customers and users-per-service.

To prepare your environment for these components, you perform the following tasks:Review the system requirements for each server role and perform any initial server configuration required.

Determine whether you will install and configure these server roles using the graphical user interface or the command

line.

Determine which server will host each server role. For example, the Directory web service is typically installed on the same

server as the Provisioning Engine. However, for a large deployment, you might consider using separate SQL servers for

hosting the reporting and billing databases.

Deploying the Services Manager platform also includes creating the first administrator user for the deployment. This user

represents the top-level administrator account and has permission to perform all control panel tasks.

Phase 2: Services deployment

Deploying services includes installing and configuring services for resources such as Microsoft Exchange, Citrix Apps and

Desktops, and Microsoft SharePoint. Before deploying any service, you must ensure the resources supporting the service

are fully deployed in your network environment. For example, to deploy the Hosted Exchange service, Services Manager

requires you have a working Exchange deployment in your environment. The Deploy services section of the Services

Manager documentation describes the configurations required to enable these resources to function successfully with the

Services Manager control panel. However, for details about deploying specific resources, you will need to refer to the

product documentation for these resources.

Phase 3: Customer and user provisioning

Provisioning customers and users represents a series of tasks for enabling resellers to sell specif ic services, making servicesavailable to end-customers, enabling customers' users to access services, and assigning security roles. To provisioncustomers and users, you perform the following tasks:1. Create the customer profile.

2. Create the customer administrator user. Some customers might require additional administrator users to manage specif ic

services. When you create these additional users, you can assign appropriate security roles.

3. Enable and configure the services that you are providing to the customer.

4. Create users for the customer and assign appropriate security roles.

5. Provision services to users.

Services Manager Terminology and Concepts

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-20The Services Manager documentation uses the following terminology:

Active Directory Location Services ("location level")

The level at which settings are configured for services enabled for a specif ic location. By default, services deployed within a

location inherit the settings configured at the top environment level. However, these settings can be overridden at the

location level.

control panel

The web-based interface that CSPs, resellers, and customer administrators use to configure and manage services,

resources, and users.

customer administrator

The f irst user created for a customer. This user has permission to create and modify user accounts, provision services to

users, and manage all services that are provisioned to the customer.

customer plan

In the context of services, a collection of configured settings that apply to all customers provisioned with a specif ic service.

Typically, customer plans represent different levels of service that the CSP provides to customers or enables resellers to sell.

For example, a customer plan might specify certain servers be used for a service, limit the total amount of resources

available for a customer to use, or enable or define specif ic features of a service. For some services, creating a customer

plan is required to enable the service at the top environment level.

location

Corresponds with an Active Directory domain and used to create associations between specif ic services, customers, and

users. For example, a service can be deployed to a specif ic location and provisioned only to customers and users in that

location. Services Manager supports multiple locations and the control panel can display only the items associated with a

selected location.

provisioning

The process of fulf illing requests made to the Provisioning engine for specif ic tasks such as creating customers, assigning

security roles, and removing users.

service provider administrator

The f irst administrator user created when the f irst location is created for a Services Manager deployment.

Top Environment Services ("top environment level")

The level at which default settings are configured for the Services Manager deployment. Settings configured at this level

are inherited by all locations in the deployment. These settings can be overridden at the Active Directory Location Services

level. Services must be enabled at the top environment level before they can be enabled and configured at the location

level.

user plan

In the context of services, a collection of configured settings that apply to all users associated with a specif ic customer.

Typically, user plans represent different modes of service that a customer provides. For example, a user plan might be

configured to allow provisioned users access to a specif ic network resource, limit the number of users that can be

Plan for deploying the Services Manager platform

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-09-02Before you deploy the Services Manager platform, create a deployment plan that includes the following information:

The composition of each server in your deployment. This includes the platform server role that will be hosted, the

hardware configuration of the server, the software required to host the server role, and the configurations required for

the server to function in the selected role.

The topology of the deployment including f irewalls, required ports, and required protocols.

Deployment of Services Manager locations. A location is the main unit of isolation between tenants and usually

corresponds to an Active Directory domain or forest. A Services Manager deployment includes at least one (primary)

location. Based on your requirements, you should determine whether or not your deployment will include remote

locations and, if so, the number of remote locations.

Whether server role installation and configuration will occur using the graphical user interface or the command line.

Review the topics To configure server roles using the graphical interface and Configure server roles and locations from

the command line, and document the information you will need to provide during configuration of each server role.

This topic describes the following platform components and deployments:General platform installation guidelines

Encryption Service

System databases, reporting, and the data warehouse

Provisioning server

Directory web service

Web server

eCommerce SDK

Deployment summary for the primary location

Deployment summary for remote locations

General platform installation guidelines

You can specify server addresses as an IP address, in the form server.domain.local, by environment variables, or by DNS

alias. In the Services Manager Setup Tool, you can verify the required aliases are created by selecting the Check

Environment Prerequisites task. If you use the command-line interface, verify the aliases before using them when

installing Services Manager roles.

Role configuration includes specifying credentials for several Active Directory user accounts. In most cases, you can

either specify the user name and password, or allow the Services Manager Configuration Tool to generate the

credentials. For most user account specif ications, the Configuration Tool includes the option to create the user account

if the account does not already exist.

In the command line interface, enclose option values that contain spaces in quotation marks (for example,

/LocationName:"Southeast Hub").

Encryption Service

The Encryption Service allows the secure retrieval of encryption keys using the AES 256-bit encryption method. When youinstall the service, a new AES key is generated, encrypted, and stored in Windows Registry.Important: Install and configure the Encryption Service before creating the system databases and installing any other serverroles. This ensures the Configuration Tool can access the service's encrypted key when other platform components and

Page 19: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.19https://docs.citrix.com

services are installed.Additionally, Citrix strongly recommends using SSL with the Encryption Service. Because the traffic to and from the service

contains sensitive data, using SSL ensures this traffic is encrypted appropriately.

When you configure the Encryption Service, the Configuration Tool performs the following actions:Creates the CortexSystem organizational unit (OU) in Active Directory, as well as the CortexAdmins, CortexReadOnly, and

CortexWSUsers security groups.

Creates a service account and adds it to the CortexWSUsers group. By default, the service account name is

csm_core_svc.

Creates an application pool and web site in IIS and configures authorization rules to limit access to the Domain Admins

and the CortexWSUsers groups.

Generates an encryption key and stores it in Windows Registry.

When you install Services Manager components or services, the Configuration Tool attempts to discover the Encryption

Service's encrypted key. For successful discovery, the Encryption Service must be correctly configured and you must be a

member of the Domain Admins group or the CortexWSUsers group. If you do not belong to these groups, discovery fails

and the Configuration Tool prompts you to import the key manually. To create a key file, you must be a member of the

Domain Admins or CortexWSUsers group. For more information about creating a key file, see Generate and export keyfiles

for the Encryption Service.

System databases, reporting, and the data warehouse

Microsoft SQL Server provides the database and reporting services required for running Services Manager. The main system

database (OLM) stores configuration information for all provisioned services, as well as all customer and user details. The

database also stores logging and auditing information for all provisioning transactions that are initiated. Additionally, the

database acts as a caching mechanism for Active Directory, so customers experience better response times and slow

directory queries are minimized.

The Reporting service for Services Manager delivers usage and billing reports to your customers and application vendors. It

includes standard reports to support provisioned services and communicates directly with SQL Server Reporting Services.

The Reporting service generates reports by accessing the data stored in the data warehouse.

The data warehouse stores historical provisioning data (OLMReporting) that is used for reporting. This history consists of

snapshots of the provisioning data stored in the OLM database, which are created once per day and subsequently

transferred to the data warehouse. The data warehouse is created when you install and configure the Reporting service. As

well, the server connections required for both the Reporting service and the data warehouse are created.

The Report Mailer is a required role for sending notifications to administrators and end users, and license reporting

information to Citrix. Typically, the Report Mailer role is installed on the same server as the Reporting service. The email

server you specify for the Report Mailer can be specified for the Provisioning server, which also requires email capabilities.

The Report Mailer role is installed and configured once for the entire Services Manager deployment, typically on a server in

the primary location.

Depending on your needs, you can deploy the system databases, reporting, and data warehouse in one of the followingways:

A single SQL Server hosts the system databases, the Reporting service (SQL Reporting Services) and data warehouse.

This is best for proof-of-concept deployments where server load is not a concern.

A SQL Server hosts the system databases while a separate SQL Server hosts the Reporting service and data warehouse.

This avoids taxing the primary database with reporting and data storage loads.

Page 20: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.20https://docs.citrix.com

If you are using clustered SQL servers in your Services Manager deployment, separating each server role is not required.

Reports are deployed by importing service packages. These services packages contain report definition f iles that are linkedto the OLM and OLMReporting databases, and configuration f iles for the data transfer process and the data warehouse.You can deploy reports using the following methods:

During Report service configuration, use the Configuration Tool to import the reports from selected service packages.

Using the control panel, import the reports manually using the service import feature.

Service packages for all supported services are located in the Services folder on the Services Manager installation media.

Provisioning server

The Provisioning engine runs as a Windows service, monitoring queues for provisioning requests. When a request is received,

it passes through a set of provisioning rules that determine which actions are required to complete the provisioning process.

These rules are designed to be easily customized using the Provisioning Manager graphical interface (Start > All Programs >

Citrix > Provisioning Engine > Provisioning Manager).

All provisioning processes in Services Manager are built using provisioning actions. This gives the service provider somevisibility into the processes that are executed within the deployment. Examples of provisioning actions include:

Directory User Create: Creates an Active Directory user

Directory Group Create: Creates a security group in Active Directory

FileSystem Create Folder: Creates a folder in a f ile system

Exchange Address List Create: Creates an address list in Microsoft Exchange

Run Command: Runs an executable within a command shell

Run Script: Runs a Visual Basic script

Services Manager includes over 100 provisioning actions.

The Provisioning engine is installed on a separate server in your Services Manager deployment. Additionally, configuration of

the Provisioning server includes specifying an email server for sending messages such as system updates to administrators,

account notifications to end users, and usage reporting to Citrix. The email server you specify for the Provisioning server can

be specified for the Report Mailer, which also requires email capabilities.

Directory web service

The Directory web service provides an interface to Active Directory. The Services Manager control panel uses this service to

perform real time tasks such as user authentication and retrieving password expiration data.

In general, the Directory web service is installed on the same server that hosts the Provisioning engine. However, if you areinstalling the Directory web service on a domain controller, add the CortexWSUsers and Proxy USERS groups to the Allowlog on locally security policy setting.Important: For production environments, Citrix recommends installing the Directory web service on a server other than adomain controller.When the Directory web service platform role is installed, the Citrix Csm Directory WS application pool is created as well as

the CortexServices web site which hosts the Directory application. The files for the web site and applications are located at

C:inetpubCortexServices.

Web server

Services Manager provides a web-based control panel for performing system administration tasks and delegating certainadministration tasks to resellers and customers. The control panel is a web application (CortexWeb) that is hosted on a

Page 21: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.21https://docs.citrix.com

Web server, separate from the other servers in your deployment. The control panel interacts with other platformcomponents as follows:

SQL databases: When the system is configured, customers and users are provisioned, or auditing and reporting

performed, the control panel sends data to be stored in the system databases.

Web services: for real-time interaction with Active Directory and other hosted services.

Provisioning engine: When any provisioning transaction is performed, the control panel sends each request through

MSMQ.

Because the control panel has no dependency on Active Directory, it can operate outside of the managed domain. The

control panel's web site can be locked down and run with minimal administrative permissions without interfering with

administration tasks.

When the Web server platform role is installed, the CortexMgmt application pool is created as well as the Cortex

Management web site which hosts the CortexAPI and CortexDotNet applications. The files for the web site and

applications are located at C:inetpubCortex Management.

eCommerce SDK

The eCommerce SDK consists of two web services that expose APIs for configuration and querying usage. The

Configuration API enables you to perform tasks such as creating new customers or suspending a customer account. The

Usage API enables you to view historical usage data.

Install the eCommerce SDK after you have installed all other platform server roles. As with the other server roles, you install

the SDK using the Setup Tool and Configuration Tool.

By default, the eCommerce SDK files are located in the C:Program Files (x86)CitrixCortexeCommerceSDK directory. The

installation includes the eCommerce SDK User Guide, which provides an API reference, sample reports, code samples, and

troubleshooting guidance.

Deployment summary for the primary location

The following list describes the required tasks for deploying the platform servers and creating the primary location.Depending on your requirements, your deployment might include additional tasks.1. Prepare the deployment environment. This includes the following tasks:

Provision the platform servers that will be designated as the domain controller, Encryption Services server, database

server, reporting server, Provisioning server, and Web server.

Extend the Active Directory schema using the Exchange installation media.

Create DNS aliases for the Encryption Service, Provisioning, database, reporting, and web servers.

Open the required f irewall ports on all platform servers.

Install .NET Framework on all platform servers. If this component is not present, the Setup Tool installs it

automatically, prior to installing the server roles.

2. Perform environment readiness checks. You can verify the extended Active Directory schema and DNS aliases. This

procedure is available in the Setup Tool graphical interface; you can also perform the verif ications manually. You can run

this task from anywhere in the domain.

3. Install and conf igure the Encryption Service. Citrix recommends performing this task on a dedicated server.

Alternatively, you can use a server that you have prepared to host other Services Manager components such as the

Provisioning Engine or the Web server.

4. Create system databases. Run this task on the server where Microsoft SQL Server is installed. In the Configuration

Tool's graphical interface, you specify database information before you install the server roles. In the command line

interface, you specify database information when you configure the server roles and location. All databases should be

Page 22: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.22https://docs.citrix.com

backed up and synchronized daily.

5. Install and conf igure server roles. Using the Setup Tool, you install the platform server roles on the servers you

designate. With the Configuration Tool, you specify the configuration settings for the installed roles.

6. Create the primary location. Use the Configuration Tool to specify the settings for the primary location. You configure

the location from the server hosting the Provisioning engine or the web server.

An XML configuration file is used to maintain context across the Services Manager deployment. As you configure the

server roles, information is read and written to the configuration file. For example, the Provisioning engine writes its own

configuration information and reads where to reach the database. When you configure the primary location, the

configuration file will already have information needed about the Provisioning server.

There is one configuration file per location, although all locations can share a single database server. You configure the

primary location first, then optionally, remote locations. For example, a new customer with an existing infrastructure and

domain might be integrated as a remote location in the control panel. When you configure remote locations, you specify

connection details, which are used to generate a new configuration file. After that, configuring a remote location is

similar to configuring the primary location.

Deployment summary for remote locations

The following list describes the required tasks for deploying the platform servers that comprise a remote location.1. Prepare the deployment environment. This includes the following tasks:

Provision the servers that will be designated as the domain controller and Provisioning server. The remote location

uses the Encryption Service, web server, and the database server in the primary location for key encryption, control

panel administration, and reporting, respectively.

Extend the Active Directory schema using the Exchange installation media.

Create DNS aliases for the Encryption Service, Provisioning, database, and web servers. When creating the alias for the

Encryption Service, specify the Encryption Service server in the primary location. Do not install the Encryption Service in

remote locations.

Open the required f irewall ports on all servers to enable communication with the database server and web server in

the primary location.

Install .NET Framework on the platform servers, to avoid interruption when installing server roles. The Setup Tool also

installs this component automatically, if it is not present, when installing the server roles.

2. Perform environment readiness checks. You can verify the extended Active Directory schema and DNS aliases. This

procedure is available in the Setup Tool graphical interface; you can also perform the verif ications manually. You can run

this task from anywhere in the domain.

3. Install and conf igure server roles. Using the Setup Tool, you select the server roles to be installed on each server. With

the Configuration Tool, you specify the configuration settings for the installed roles. As with the primary location, you

can install the Provisioning and Directory web service roles on the same server.

Note: When you install and configure server roles, the Configuration Tool discovers the Encryption Service key residing in

the primary location. If the key cannot be detected, you can export the key from the primary location as a key f ile. You

can then import the key f ile when prompted during the installation process. For more information about exporting the

encryption key, see Generate and export keyfiles for the Encryption Service.

4. Create the remote location. Use the Configuration Tool to specify the settings for the primary location. You configure

the location from the server hosting the Provisioning engine or the web server. Afterward, continue configuring the

remote location using the Services Manager control panel in the primary location.

Plan for deploying services

Oct 05, 2016

Updated: 2013-02-27Before you begin the process of deploying services for Services Manager, create a deployment plan that includes thefollowing information:

The types of services you will offer through Services Manager. For example, hosted email, virtual machines, web hosting,

and so on.

The number of customers and users that each service will need to support. For some services, this has a signif icant

impact on the size of the resource deployment required.

The network and server resources that are required to support your service offerings. For example, if you offer Citrix

services, you will need to deploy a XenApp farm.

The location where each service will be deployed.

The topology of the deployment including f irewalls, required ports and protocols, and the servers hosting each service

offering.

Test plans for verifying the integrity and performance of resource deployments before and after deploying services.

Planning guidelines

Review the installation and configuration topics for each service carefully and make note of the information you will

need to supply for each task.

Service deployment summary

In general, deploying a service includes the following tasks:

Step 1: Deploy the network and application resources that are required to support your service offerings.

All services are based on the network and server resources in your environment. Therefore, these resources need to be fully

configured and operational prior to integration with Services Manager. For example, if you intend to offer the Hosted

Exchange service, you must first deploy Exchange with multi-tenant support in your environment. Likewise, if you intend to

offer Virtual Machines or Windows Web Hosting services, you must first deploy the network resources -- for example,

virtual networks, DNS, and web servers -- that are required for customers to use these services.

Step 2: Install the web service.

Some services require the installation of a web service for integration with the Services Manager platform. Web services are

installed on the server that will be hosting the service, using the Services Manager Setup Tool or the command line. For

example, the Citrix web service is installed on a XenApp server in your environment. Web services are executed with specific

parameters which are explained in the installation topic for each service. After the web service is installed, you can configure

the service. For services that do not require a web service, you can skip the installation step and configure the service right

away. For more information about which services require web service installation, see Deploy services.

Step 3: Conf igure the service using the control panel.

All services require configuration through the Services Manager control panel. Configuration includes enabling the service,

specifying server resources, adding credentials, and configuring service settings. During the configuration process, you create

the customer and user plans you want to offer, assign cost values, and specify resource limits for customers and users.

After you configure the service, you can provision the service to customers.

Step 4 : Provision the service to customers.

Page 24: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.24https://docs.citrix.com

In general, provisioning a service enables specific customers (including resellers) to access the service and provision it, in turn,

to their users or sub-customers. This occurs through the Services Manager control panel. During the provisioning process,

some services might require additional configuration. For example, when provisioning the BlackBerry service to a reseller, you

configure a user limit that restricts the number of users the reseller can provision. Additionally, the customer's primary

administrator user (the customer administrator) is created. After the customer is provisioned with the service, the customer

can provision the service to its users or sub-customers.

Step 5: Provision the service to users.

As with provisioning services to customers, services are provisioned to users through the Services Manager control panel.

Typically, this task is handled by the customer administrator or another customer user with the appropriate security role.

During the provisioning process, some services might require additional configuration. For example, when provisioning the

Lync 2010 for Hosting service to a user, the customer can specify the user's telephone extension. After users are

provisioned, the customer provides any additional information or assistance needed for using the service, such as

configuring Microsoft Outlook or Office Communicator to access hosted Exchange or Office Communication Server

services.

AD Sync

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-09-16The AD Sync service for Services Manager synchronizes customer OUs in the hosted domain controller with user changes in

the external domain controllers. The service enables users to connect to hosted services with the same credentials they use

for their local domain. Additionally, Services Manager includes a server monitor that reports the connectivity status of

domain controllers on which the AD Sync client is installed.

The AD Sync service requires no installation on the hosted environment and uses the CloudPortal Services Manager API to

perform the synchronization. An AD Sync client installed on each external domain controller communicates with the API.

This interface is a one-way connection that can be customized to synchronize specific Active Directory information.

API requests are encrypted using a combination of a public/private key and a symmetric key (RSA and AES) to securely

transfer data and credentials. The data in the request is also hashed (SHA1) to prevent unauthorized changes.

The following diagram shows a typical installation scenario.

The AD Sync service is a customer-only service; by default, the service is unavailable for provisioning to users. Once

provisioned to a customer, the customer's administrator has access to download and configure the AD Sync tool to their

existing domain controller. To download the tool, the customer must be configured with the Allow passwords to Never

Expire option set to Yes. If this option is set to No, errors are recorded in the customer's event log and no users appear in

the control panel.

AD Sync server monitor

The AD Sync service monitors the connectivity status of external domain controllers on which the AD Sync client is installed

and displays a list of all monitored servers on the AD Sync Server Monitor page in the control panel.

The AD Sync client sends requests to the Services Manager API at specified intervals that are recorded in a monitoring

table. This table includes the server name, time of the last request made, and expected time interval between requests.

When the difference between the current time and the time of the last request exceeds the expected interval, the Server

Monitor page displays a red dot next to the affected server, indicating connectivity has been disrupted. When a request is

received within the expected time interval, the Server Monitor page displays a green dot next to the server, indicating

connectivity is uninterrupted.

Prerequisites for deployment

When configuring each domain controller in the external domain, perform the following tasks:If SSL is enabled for Services Manager, edit the CortexDotnetweb.config f ile to set the UserSyncAPISSL value to True.

Ensure the password complexity of the external domain controllers matches or exceeds the password complexity of the

domain controllers in the Services Manager deployment.

Disable User Account Control (UAC) on each external domain controller that will run the AD Sync client.

Obtain a list of the user groups to include in AD Sync operations.

If applicable, obtain proxy server information.

On applicable f irewalls, perform one of the following tasks, depending on your network configuration:Open HTTP and HTTPS ports (80 and 443) bi-directionally between the server hosting the Services Manager API and

each domain controller in the external domain.

Open HTTP and HTTPS ports (80 and 443) bi-directionally between the server hosting the Services Manager API and the

proxy server used in the external domain.

Service deployment overview

Typically, deploying the AD Sync service involves the following tasks:1. Configure the AD Sync service using the control panel.

2. If required, customize the AD Sync client installer, such as default settings and logo images, for your Services Manager

deployment.

3. Install and test the AD Sync client on external domain controllers. If necessary, add or modify the Active Directory

attributes included in API requests by editing the request f ile on the external domain controller.

4. Provision the service to customers so they can download the AD Sync client software.

For deployment instructions, see Deploy the AD Sync service.

Prerequisites for deploying the Citrix service

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-05-17Before deploying the Citrix service, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

Create a new security group

1. Create the Cortex Service Computers security group on the domain. You can create this group within the CortexSystem

OU.

2. Add all XenApp controllers to the security group.

3. In Active Directory Users and Computers, with Advanced Features enabled, assign the security group to any Services

Manager root customer OUs and any existing customers created in the location.

4. Assign Read permissions to the security group on the OU.

5. In the Advanced Security Settings for Servers dialog box, locate the Cortex Service Computers group. Edit the

permissions and, in Apply to, select This object and all descendant objects.

6. Restart all computers added to the security group.

Set up a file server

The Citrix service requires a file server to create file shares with permissions, store profiles, and so on. Ensure a file server is

available in your environment for this purpose. You can use the same file server for deploying the Citrix and File Sharing

DNS

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-11The DNS service for Services Manager provides Domain Name Service (DNS) hosting from the cloud. The DNS service

requires no installation and uses a WMI connection to the DNS server.

When the DNS service is provisioned to a customer, the service provider creates the DNS zone(s) that the customer can

then use to create subzones, if necessary. The DNS service is available at the customer level only. The service cannot be

provisioned to a customer's users.

Customers provisioned with the DNS service can create and manage DNS records that are attached to zones. DNS Service

Administrators can manage these records for the customer while Full Reseller Administrators can manage these records for

sub-customers.

Different types of records can be attached to a zone. When a record is created, only the Time to Live (TTL) setting can be

modified.

Supported software

The DNS service supports Windows (WMI) and BIND (UNIX) DNS.

Requirements

When configuring your DNS environment, perform the following actions:On applicable f irewalls, open DNS port (53) and RPC ports (various) bi-directionally between the DNS server(s) and both

the Services Manager web and provisioning servers. RPC uses random ports above port 1056, therefore non-stateful

inspection f irewalls might require open ports above 1056.

Add the DNS service account used for provisioning to the local administrators group.

Ensure the computer name has a DNS suff ix. If the DNS server is outside of the Services Manager domain, ensure the

DNS suff ix for the Services Manager domain is on the DNS server.

Ensure the DNS application has a zone for the DNS suff ix.

User Access Control (UAC) must be removed from each DNS server.

Ensure the DNS zone has an A record. If the DNS server is outside of the Services Manager domain, ensure the A record

is in the format dnsServerName.ServicesManagerDomain. For example, DNS01.cloudportal.com.

Supported record types

Services Manager supports the following types of DNS records:

Dynamics CRM

Jul 22, 2016

Updated: 2013-04-22The CRM service enables service providers to deliver a robust customer relationship management solution to customers

through Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011, 2013, or 2015. Customers enjoy a 360-degree view of their customers along with

automated workflows, ease of reporting, and a granular security structure.

The CRM service supports Internet-facing deployments (IFDs), which makes CRM organizations available from the Internet.

Additionally, the service is deployed for use with Active Directory Federated Services (ADFS).

System requirements

When configuring the Dynamics CRM service in your environment, ensure the following requirements are met:

A CRM Deployment Administrators security group has been created and has all required CRM Deployment Administrator

permissions to CRM Active Directory groups. Additionally, the CRM Deployment Administrator role has all required

permissions to the SQL Server instance where the CRM databases are stored. Finally, a CRM Deployment Administrator

domain user account has been created and added to the CRM Deployment Administrators security group.

When you install and configure the ADFS and Dynamics CRM services, you will need to supply this group and account

information to enable CloudPortal Services Manager to work with your CRM deployment. For more information about

creating CRM Deployment Administrators and assigning permissions, see the article "Creating a New CRM Deployment

Administrator Account" on the Microsoft TechNet web site (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg197627.aspx).

The user who is installing CRM has the following roles in SQL Server Reporting Services:

Content Manager role at the root level

System Administrator role at the site-wide level

For more information about assigning permissions for deploying CRM, see the article "How to assign the minimum

permissions to a deployment administrator in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0" on the Microsoft Support web site

(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946686).

Claims based authentication is optional. If you wish to use claims based authentication, t configure this from the CRM

Deployment Manager.

The Internet-facing Deployment feature has been configured. This feature enables integration of ADFS with CRM. For

help configuring an Internet Facing Domain (IFD) for CRM, see the "IFD for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011" video,

located at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9jZIxDTsBw. Although this video is intended for CRM 2011, the same

principals apply for CRM 2013, and CRM 2015

The ADFS service user account (typically, Network Service) has Read access to the customer's OU. This is required for

successful authentication.

After configuring CRM, verify that user connections are successful and there are no certificate errors. Test the environment

by creating an organization using the CRM Deployment Manager and, afterward, browsing to the site.

Service deployment overview

Deploying the CRM service involves the following tasks:

1. Deploy the ADFS web service on the ADFS server in your environment and enable the server to execute PowerShell

commands.

2. Configure the Dynamics CRM service using the control panel.

3. Provision the service to customers.

File Sharing

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-07The File Sharing service for Services Manager provides file sharing services from the cloud. A service provider can host a file

server with multiple customer file shares on the system directory. Security permissions limit customer access to shared

folders.

After provisioning, customers can use their file share directory to store and transfer files to others in the organization,

manage the directory subfolders, and assign folder permissions to users. Users can access the customer's file share directory

through another mechanism. For example, the file share can be configured as a resource through the Citrix service and

accessed in a Citrix XenApp session.

The File Sharing service requires no web service to be installed on the file server. You need only to configure the service in

the Services Manager control panel.

Requirements

On applicable firewalls, open SMB (445) and RPC (various) ports bi-directionally between the DNS server(s) and both the

Services Manager web and provisioning servers. RPC uses random ports above port 1056; therefore, non-stateful inspection

firewalls might require open ports above 1056.

Service deployment overview

In general, deploying the File Sharing service involves the following tasks:1. Ensure the f ile share path exists in your environment.

2. Configure the service using the control panel.

3. Provision the service to customers.

For deployment instructions, see Deploy the File Sharing service.

File share path creation

If the required file share path does not exist when you configure the File Sharing service, Services Manager can create it

automatically. To allow Services Manager to do this, you must grant Services Manager permissions on the target file server.

If you do not want to grant these permissions to Service Manager, be sure to create the file share you wish to use before

you configure the service.

Changes in Active Directory

When a customer is provisioned with the File Sharing service, the following changes occur:The global security group SERVICEADMINS <CustomerShortName> FSS is created and all Full Service Administrator users

are added as members.

The global security group FSS <CustomerShortName> FULL is created. No members are added to this group until users

are provisioned.

The global security group FSS <CustomerShortName> NONE is created. Users that are not provisioned with the File

Sharing service are members of this group.

When a user is provisioned with the File Sharing service, the user becomes a member of the global security group FSS

<CustomerShortName> FULL.

Certificate and DNS requirements

When preparing your Lync deployment for provisioning to customers, ensure the domain for the customer you are

provisioning is included on the certificates that exist on the Lync Front-End and Director servers.

For provisioning the DNS records required for the Lync services, configure the DNS service. This enables Services Manager to

provision the customer's forward lookup zone, as well as create the Host (A) record for SIP, and create the SRV records

required when you provision the Lync service. You can define the Lync DNS records that Services Manager will create when

you configure the Lync service settings. For more information about configuring the DNS service, see Deploy the DNS

service.

If the DNS service is not configured, you will need to create the following DNS records manually for each customer:A forward lookup zone for the domain to which you are provisioning the customer.

SRV records, _sipinternal and _sipinternaltls

Host (A) record for SIP, specifying the Lync Director server's IP address

Deployment overview

Typically, deploying the Lync services includes the following steps:1. For Lync 2013, deploy the Distributor Report f ix according to the instructions in CTX139274, in the Citrix Knowledge

Center.

2. Install the web service on the Lync Front-End server.

3. Configure the Lync service using the control panel.

4. If you intend for Services Manager to provision DNS records for the Edge and Front-End servers in your deployment,

configure the DNS service.

5. Provision the service to customers.

Service deployment overview

Typically, deploying the SharePoint 2010 and 2013 services involve the following tasks:1. Configure the DNS service using the Services Manager control panel and provision to customers.

2. Install and configure the Windows Web Hosting web service on the SharePoint server that hosts the SharePoint web

service.

3. Install the SharePoint web service on the SharePoint farm server.

4. Configure the SharePoint web service using the control panel.

5. Add SharePoint farms to the control panel and configure for multi-tenancy.

6. Add and configure SharePoint feature packs, if applicable.

7. Configure SSL certif icates for provisioning to customer sites. (SharePoint 2013)

8. Provision the SharePoint service to customers.

The SharePoint web service is deployed on the application (front-end) server in the SharePoint farm. During the web service

installation process, the Services Manager Configuration Tool sets the SharePoint web service to the same application pool

identity as the SharePoint Central Administration site. This configuration is required for Services Manager to provision

SharePoint resources.

For deployment instructions, see Deploy the SharePoint 2010 service.

Web service deployment methods

You can deploy the SharePoint web service in the following ways:As a dedicated web service, where each SharePoint server in your deployment hosts the SharePoint web service. To

complete provisioning requests, each SharePoint server communicates directly with the Web and Provisioning servers as

appropriate.

As a shared web service, where the SharePoint web service is hosted on a single SharePoint server in your deployment.

To complete provisioning requests, this server communicates directly with the Web and Provisioning servers, and also

connects with the other SharePoint servers in the deployment as needed using PowerShell remoting.

Citrix recommends deploying the SharePoint web service as a dedicated web service. This method improves performance by

avoiding the potential for "double-hopping," where web service connections are relayed through a single point to other

SharePoint servers. Using a dedicated web service also improves reliability in the event of a server failure, as there are other

SharePoint servers that can provide web service connections.

DNS provisioning

You can enable DNS provisioning for SharePoint sites you provision through Services Manager. To do this, you must deploythe DNS service and provision it to customers. The following table describes DNS provisioning support in the SharePoint2010 and SharePoint 2013 services.

When a SharePoint site is provisioned, a DNS record is created if the following requirements are met:A DNS record type is defined for the site.

The SharePoint site URL includes a subdomain (for example, http://site01.sharepoint-domain.com).

The DNS zone for the site is provisioned to the customer (for example, if the site URL is "site01.sharepoint-domain.com,"

the DNS zone "sharepoint-domain.com" must be provisioned to the customer before the site is provisioned.

After the DNS record is created, you can view the record using the following methods:From the control panel: Services > DNS > DNS Records

From the DNS server, using the DNS Manager snap-in, under Forward Lookup Zones for the domain

For instructions on enabling DNS provisioning for SharePoint 2010 sites, see To enable DNS for the SharePoint 2010 service.

SharePoint 2013 licensing and Web Apps

In Services Manager, SharePoint 2013 farms can have one of the following licenses: Foundation, Standard, or Enterprise.

When a SharePoint farm has only Foundation features enabled, customers are billed for each site with access to those

features. When a farm has Standard or Enterprise features enabled, customers are billed for each user provisioned to a site

with access to those features. For users of Standard or Enterprise sites, the license they are provisioned governs the set of

features that are available when they access the site. For example, if a user has a Standard license and accesses a site with

Enterprise features, the license allows the user to access only the Standard set of features on the site.

To determine whether or not per-user licensing is enabled for a farm, use the SharePoint cmdlet Get-SPUserLicensing.

When you create a SharePoint farm through the control panel, the farm has Foundation licensing by default. You can

configure the license on the Services > SharePoint 2013 > Farm Configuration page. However, after the farm is provisioned

to a customer, you cannot modify the license.

For farms with Standard or Enterprise licenses, you can also enable Microsoft Office document editing and MicrosoftProject features within SharePoint. These options have the following requirements:

To use this option... These items are required...

Edit Office Web Apps Users must have licenses to use Office applications

SharePoint farm must be configured to work with Office Web Apps Server

Project Web Apps Users must have licenses to use Project

SharePoint farm must be configured to work with Project Web App

When these options are enabled for the farm, you can choose to enable these options for users that are provisioned with

Standard or Enterprise user plans (and the appropriate product licenses). These options apply to all sites to which users are

provisioned. For example, if a user has the Edit Office Web Apps option enabled and has a Microsoft Word user license, the

Page 58: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

user can modify Word documents stored on all of the SharePoint sites to which the user has access. However, if the Edit

Office Apps option is disabled for the user, then the user can no longer modify Word documents on any of their sites.

When these options are enabled for a user, the user is added to the following security groups:SharePoint2013 EditOfficeWebApps

SharePoint2013 Project

Virtual Machines

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-05-17The Virtual Machines service for Services Manager delivers virtual datacenters from the cloud. The service integrates with

Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) for VM management and supports Microsoft Hyper-V Server.

Customers provisioned with the Virtual Machines service can create and manage the virtual servers in their organizations.

Customers can add and configure new virtual servers, create checkpoints that enable restoring virtual servers to a previous

state, and add or remove servers from available networks.

Customers can be assigned resource pools which include limits on total disk storage, memory, processors, and number of

virtual machines. When a resource pool is assigned, the customer can create, manage, stop, start, upgrade, and downgrade

their virtual servers through the Services Manager control panel. If more resources are needed, the customer's reseller can

add the required resources.

Customers can be assigned one or more virtual networks and Services Manager can automatically assign a VLAN tag or

allow the customer to assign the tag manually. After the network is set up, the customer can add or remove virtual servers

from the virtual network. Virtual networks can span across multiple physical hosts managed by the same SCVMM server.

This means that customers' virtual servers can be distributed across hosts.

Generate and export keyfiles for the EncryptionService

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-08-29When you install and configure Services Manager platform components or services, the Configuration Tool attempts to

discover the presence of the Encryption Service and access the encryption key that was created when you installed the

Encryption Service. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the Configuration Tool prompts you to import a keyfile. You can generate

and export this keyfile manually through the Encryption Service web site.

To access the Encryption Service web site and generate the keyfile, you must belong to the Domain Admins group or the

CortexWSUsers group. If you do not belong to these security groups, the Encryption Service web site prompts you for the

appropriate credentials. To generate the keyfile, you supply an encryption password that is at least eight characters long.

Configure server roles and locations from the command line

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-10-09This topic assumes that you have installed the Services Manager Configuration Tool on the platform servers you want to configure and on the server where you want to configure the primary

location or a remote location. When you install a platform server role, the Configuration Tool is installed automatically. To install the Configuration Tool only, see To install server roles from the

command line.

This topic includes the following sections:Command Conventions

Return Codes

Syntax

Databases options

Provisioning options

Directory Web Service options

Web options

Location options

Reporting options for deploying the Reporting service

Reporting options for deploying reports

Reporting (Data Warehouse) options

Report mailer options

Example: Configure the Provisioning and Directory Web Service server roles

Example: Configure the primary location

Example: Configure a remote location

Command Conventions

Several options use Boolean values (true or false).If you omit an option that requires a Boolean value, the default value is used. For example, if you do not include the /UseCortexSql:True | False option in the command, the default value (false) is

used; that is, the reporting database will not use the settings configured for the main system database.

If you specify an option that requires a Boolean value but you omit the value, the option value is true. For example, if you specify only /UseCortexSql (with no True or False value), the option is true;

that is, the reporting database will use the settings configured for the main system database.

You can use environment variables to represent one or more command-line options or option values (for example, /ReportingDBServer:%currentServer%, where currentServer is defined as an

environment variable).

Enclose option values that contain spaces in quotation marks (for example, /LocationName:"Southeast Hub").

Return Codes

The configuration command supports the following return codes:

Value Meaning

1 Another instance is already running.

0 Success.

-1, -2, -3 Command-line error.

-4 General failure during configuration. To debug further, review the log in %WINDIR%Temp.

Syntax

To configure the server roles and create the primary location from the command line, you execute the Services Manager Configuration Tool by typing the following at a command prompt:

CortexConfigConsole.exe /ConfigFile:config-file /Configure:tasks /task-options [/Help]

/Conf igFile:conf ig-f ile

Location of XML configuration f ile with read-write access for the current user. If this f ile already exists, its content will be overwritten during the configuration.

/Conf igure:tasks

Configures specif ied installed Services Manager roles and a location. Valid values are:

Databases – Creates the main Services Manager system databases.

Provisioning – Configures the Provisioning Engine.

DirectoryService - Configures the Directory Web Service.

Web – Configures the Web Server.

Location – Initializes the Services Manager instance. A location is the main unit of isolation between tenants, and usually corresponds to an Active Directory domain or forest.

Reporting – Creates the reporting database and configures the Data Warehouse feature.

ReportMailer – Configures the email environment for sending usage reports to the Citrix license monitor. Configuring the Report Mailer is required.

/Help

Displays command help.

Deploy services

Jul 22, 2016

Updated: 2014-08-07CloudPortal Services Manager supports a variety of services that service providers can provision to resellers and customers.

Service deployment typically involves the following tasks:

1. Install the service.

2. Configure the service.

3. Provision the service to customers.

4. Provision the service to users.

The installation and configuration steps differ for each service and are described in the topics dedicated to each service.

Service installation

Some services that Services Manager supports require you to install a web service on the server that will be hosting the

service. For example, the Lync Enterprise web service is installed on a Front End Server in your Lync deployment. You can

install these services in one of the following ways:

Install the service using the Setup Tool and specify initial settings using the Configuration Tool

Execute the service's MSI f ile from the command line of the server hosting the service

The following services require a web service to be installed:

ADFS (for use with the Dynamics CRM service)

Citrix XenApp

Hosted Apps and Desktops

Hosted Exchange

Lync Enterprise (2010 & 2013)

Lync 2010 for Hosting

Lync Hosted 2013

MySQL

Office Communication Server 2007

SharePoint 2010 and 2013

Virtual Machine

Windows Web Hosting

When you install and configure a web service, the Services Manager Setup Tool creates the IIS application pools, web

applications, and web sites required for the web service to function. The web site and application files are stored by default

in the C:inetpub directory on the server on which the web service is installed. The following table lists the default application

pools for each service:

Web service name Default name of application pool

ADFS ADFSAppPool

Some supported services do not require a web service and, therefore, no MSI files are included on the installation media.

The following services require control panel configuration only:

AD Sync

BlackBerry 5

Dynamics CRM

DNS

File Sharing

Mail Archiving

Microsoft SQL Server Hosting

Service configuration overview

Service configuration typically involves the following tasks:

1. Enable the service at the top environment and location levels.

2. Add credentials for accessing the servers and management tools.

3. Add the servers associated with the service.

4. Assign service roles to the servers.

5. Add service connections to establish communication between the servers and CloudPortal Services Manager.

6. Assign servers to a collection, if applicable.

7. Configure the service settings.

About service property settings, credentials, and servers

All services are enabled at both the Top Environment Services level and the Active Directory Location Services level. The

service settings at the top environment level are inherited by all locations configured in Services Manager. Typically, the

Page 88: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.88https://docs.citrix.com

top environment level setting defaults are suff icient and do not require modif ication.

For some services, a customer plan or user plan must be configured before the service is enabled at the location level.

To reset a service setting to the default value, clear the check box for the property and apply the change. The next time

the service settings are opened, the default value for the property appears.

Control access to a property setting by expanding it and setting the Hierarchy Permission.

Credentials that are in use for a specif ic web service connection cannot be deleted. To remove the credentials, you must

first remove the web service connection.

In most cases, server information is retrieved without any action from the service provider. A server that is outside of the

hosting domain must be manually added to the servers list (Conf iguration > System Manager > Servers).

Server connections enable Services Manager to connect with web services that are installed on the servers hosting the

service. If server connections are created for multiple servers hosting a particular web service, Services Manager assigns

primary and secondary status to the server connections for failover.

Server collections group multiple servers for some services, including Citrix XenApp, Microsoft SQL, MySQL, and Windows

Web Hosting Services. If a server collection and its servers should be available to all resellers, enable Automatic resellerselection. If a server collection should be enabled by default to all customers, enable Automatic customer selection.

Services and customer provisioning

After the service is configured, you can provision the service. Service provisioning typically involves the following tasks:

1. Provision the service to the root Service Provider's Reseller service.

2. Provision the service to the customer.

3. Provision the service to the customer's users.

About service provisioning

Re-provision customers after changing customer plans.

A service that is provisioned to customers cannot be disabled at the top environment level until it has been de-

provisioned from all customers and resellers and deleted from the location level.

Apply cost values to service properties

Service providers can apply a cost value to service properties at various levels (service level, customer plan, and user plan)

depending on the type of service. The values are used in monthly billing reports. Pricing values are inherited from the Top

Environment Services level and overridden at the reseller and customer levels.

The Prices properties typically appear at the end of the service, customer plan, and user plan settings. The properties include

a cost price and sales price. Cost price is the minimum price for a user plan. Sales price is the recommended purchase price,

with a recommended value that is equal or greater than the cost price. The Prices properties for the Hosted Exchange

service also include a price per mailbox value that is the unit price for mailbox usage that exceeds the agreed limit for public

folders.

AD Sync

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-11-19Deploying the AD Sync service involves the following tasks:

Configure the AD Sync service

Synchronize Exchange contacts and distribution groups in a remote domain

If, after deployment, a customer performs changes that affect the AD Sync service, refer to Re-configure AD Sync for

Customer Changes to perform the required reconfiguration.

For more information about requirements for deploying the AD Sync service, refer to Plan to deploy the AD Sync service.

To configure the AD Sync service

1. Enable the service (top level):

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, select Configuration > System Manager > Service Deployment.

2. Expand AD Sync and then click Save.

2. Enable the service (location level):

1. Under Service Filter, select Active Directory Location Services and select a Location Filter, if applicable.

2. Expand AD Sync and then click Save.

3. Enable the service (top reseller level):

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, select Customers > Customer Hierarchy.

2. Under the top reseller node, expand Services and then expand Reseller. The Customer Services page appears.

3. In the service list, select the AD Sync check box and then click Provision.

4. Configure and provision the service to the customer:

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Customers.

2. Expand the selected customer and click Services.

3. Expand AD Sync and then click Provision.

To customize the AD Sync client installer

You can customize the following characteristics of the AD Sync client installer for a Services Manager site:

Product settings shown in the Windows Add or Remove Programs or Programs and Features panel. Settings include

name, manufacturer, and links to help and support.

Product name used as the default installation folder, service name, and source name of errors in the Event Log.

Banner and dialog images (.bmp or .jpg) used in the installer. The default sizes of those images are:

Banner (493 x 58 pixels)

Dialog (493 x 312 pixels)

1. Log on to the Services Manager web server and navigate to the [INSTALLDIR]CortexDotNetServicesSync directory.

2. Open sync.config in a text editor and customize the settings as needed. If you change a commented item, remove the

comment markup.

3. After completing the changes, direct your customers to download the AD Sync installer from the Services Manager web

site.

To install the AD Sync client on external domain controllers

Page 90: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.90https://docs.citrix.com

Install the AD Sync client on every domain controller in the external domain. For more information on preparing thesedomain controllers for AD Sync, see Plan to deploy the AD Sync service.Important: The AD Sync client cannot decrypt users' existing passwords when installed due to Active Directory encryption.After the client is installed, users must change their passwords so the client can synchronize them with Services Manager.1. Log on to an external domain controller and then log on to the Services Manager control panel using the administrator

credentials of the customer just provisioned.

2. Download the AD Sync client installer:

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, select Services > AD Sync > AD Sync Download and then click Download.

2. Click Save to save the AD Sync client installer to a drive location so you can copy it to the other external domain

controllers.

3. Install the client:

1. Run the AD Sync Setup installer, enter the requested password, and then click Next.

2. Specify the User watch frequency, select the following settings, and then click Next:

Watch for changes to contacts

Watch for changes to groups

Watch for changes to users

Important: Perform this step for only one AD Sync client to ensure that duplicate requests are not sent to the

Services Manager API. The domain controller configured to watch for changes synchronizes user and password

changes. The other domain controllers synchronize only password changes.

3. Select the Active Directory user groups to include in AD Sync operations and then click Next twice. When the AD Sync

service detects a USN change, it performs the synchronization only if the user is in an included group. The last USN

value is stored in [INSTALLDIR]QueueSyncActiveDirectory.config.

4. If a proxy server is used in the external domain, enter the information for it. Using a proxy server ensures that domain

controllers are not exposed to the internet.

5. Click Next, choose a location to install the AD Sync client, click Next, and then click Install.

6. Restart the domain controller. The AD Sync service starts.

7. Copy the AD Sync client installer to all other external domain controllers and then repeat Steps 3a - 3g for each

domain controller.

4. Test the AD Sync client:

1. After a domain controller restarts, log on to Services Manager and then click Users to view the user list. The

synchronized users have a small green arrow next to the user icon.

2. To test that the synchronization works for new accounts, create a new user account in the external domain, add it

to a user group that is included in AD Sync operations, change an attribute on the account, and then verify that the

account appears on the Users screen.

To synchronize additional Active Directory attributes

To change the Active Directory attributes included in API requests, edit the request format in [INSTALLDIR]Requests.

Synchronize Exchange contacts and distributiongroups in a remote domain

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-04-30You can configure AD Sync to monitor changes to Hosted Exchange contacts and distribution groups that are created in a

remote domain through Services Manager. You can also disable AD Sync for specific contacts and distribution groups so you

can modify them through the control panel.

When a contact or distribution group is created, an object identifier is assigned automatically. For contacts, the identifier is

the objectGUID. For distribution groups, the identifier is the objectSid. The AD Sync client provides these identifiers to

Services Manager, which uses them to display synchronized items in the control panel. By default, these object identifiers

are stored in extensionAttribute12 on the primary domain. If another application is using extensionAttribute12 to store

other values, you can modify the Sync Object Id setting in the Hosted Exchange service settings to specify a different

extension attribute (Configuration > System Manager > Service Deployment > Hosted Exchange > Service Settings,

Customer category, under Extension Attributes).

To enable synchronization for specific contacts and distribution groups

To configure AD Sync to synchronize contacts and distribution groups, you add the contacts and distribution groups youwant to synchronize to appropriate groups that will be included in the AD Sync client's inclusion f ilter. The AD Sync clientmonitors the Windows Event Log for changes to these items and synchronizes the included groups accordingly.Note: When contacts are added or removed, the AD Sync client does not synchronize these changes automatically as theyare not reflected in the Windown Event Log. To ensure changes to contacts are synchronized, you must force the AD Syncclient to synchronize. For more information, see To force synchronization of changes to contacts in Active Directorygroups.

To disable synchronization for specific contacts and distribution groups

Synchronized items such as contacts and distribution groups are displayed in the control panel as read-only items. If youwant to modify a synchronized contact or distribution group, you disable AD Sync for the item and then remove the itemfrom Active Directory group being synchronized. Disabling AD Sync removes the object identif ier from the item's customattribute and makes the item editable.Important: If you disable AD Sync for a contact or distribution group and make changes through the control panel, thosechanges will be lost if you re-enable AD Sync later.1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Services > Exchange > Contacts or Distribution Groups.

2. Select the contact or distribution group for which you want to disable synchronization.

3. Click Disable AD Sync and then click Close.

4. On the remote domain controller, launch Active Directory Users and Computers and locate the group that contains the

contacts or distribution groups that are no longer being synchronized.

5. Right-click the group and select Properties.

6. On the Members tab, select the contacts or distribution groups you want to remove and click Remove. Click OK.

To re-enable synchronization for specific contacts and distribution groups

1. In the remote domain, locate the object identif ier for the contact or distribution group.

2. On the primary domain, add the object identif ier to the item's Exchange custom attribute.

3. Add the item to the appropriate group that is included in the IncludeGroups setting in the ADSync.exe.config f ile.

Re-configure AD Sync for Customer Changes

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-04-30The following events at a customer site require changes to AD Sync service configuration:

A change has been made to the administrator account for the external domain controllers

A new contact has been added to or removed from a group that is included in AD Sync operations

To re-configure for a new administrator

If the administrator who installed the AD Sync client is no longer available, the new administrator must uninstall the AD

Sync client from all external domain controllers, re-install the client (which will be associated with the new administrator's

account), and restart the domain controllers. The AD Sync service then restarts using the new administrator's account and

synchronize all users on the remote Active Directory domains to Services Manager.

To force synchronization of changes to contacts in Active Directory groups

When a contact is added to or removed from an Active Directory group, the change is not automatically synchronized with

the AD Sync client. To force a synchronization, change a property in the contact. AD Sync detects the change and updates

the include group in Services Manager.

Note: If the contact is a member of a distribution group that is being synchronized, you do not need to force asynchronization. When the AD Sync client synchronizes the distribution group, the contact will be synchronized as well.

To create DNS templates

Jun 05, 2015

DNS templates define the DNS records that are created when a customer domain is added or a service is provisioned to the

customer's account.

Templates can be created at any level in the customer hierarchy. Templates can also be overridden. For example, a Service

Provider has five domain templates configured. For Reseller A, two new templates are created at the reseller level. When

Reseller A provisions a customer, the Service Provider templates will be ignored and the two reseller templates will be

configured for the customer.

If you delete a DNS template, the template is not used for new domains or services that are provisioned to a customer.

However, existing customers' DNS records that were generated with the template are not removed. You can remove these

records manually through the DNS Records menu item.

By default, only the Service Provider Administrator role has permission to manage DNS templates. To enable this permission

for other security roles, click Security > Security Roles from the Services Manager menu bar and then select a security role.

Ensure the security role is a member of the DNS Service Administrator role group. The DNS Templates permission is located

on the Menus tab, under Services > DNS

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Services > DNS > DNS Templates. The DNS Overview page displays all the

templates that have been created for the selected customer.

2. Under DNS Management, click New DNS Template.

3. In Template Service, select the service for which the template is being configured. When the service is provisioned to the

customer, the DNS template is created. Leave this f ield blank if the template is created when a domain is added to the

customer.

4. In Record Type, select a record type and configure the options that are created when the DNS record is created. A

default {Domain} value is displayed for all DNS templates. This value refers to the customer's domain.

5. Click Save to create the template. The new template appears in the DNS template table.

Hosted Apps and Desktops

Jul 19, 2016

Updated: 2014-11-20The Hosted Apps and Desktops service for Services Manager delivers applications, desktops, and resources either directly

from XenApp farms and XenDesktop sites, or from farms and sites that are managed by Citrix App Orchestration.

Deploying the Hosted Apps and Desktop service includes the following tasks:Install the Hosted Apps and Desktops web service

Configure the Hosted Apps and Desktops service

Configure Hosted Apps and Desktops offerings

Provision the Hosted Apps and Desktops service

You can install the web service on a XenApp or XenDesktop Controller or on an App Orchestration configuration server

using the Services Manager Setup Tool or from the command line.

For more information about the requirements for deploying the service, review the information in Plan to deploy the

Hosted Apps and Desktops service.

What’s new in Version 11.5.6

CloudPortal Services Manager now includes even more support for provisioning and managing app and desktop offerings at

scale across multiple tenants, managing multiple sites and support for the latest XenApp and XenDesktop versions.

Latest XenDesktop version support : �Simplify management of application and desktop service offerings across

multiple versions including XenDesktop 7.9. Take advantage of new XenApp and XenDesktop features by adding or

updating existing sites to the latest version.

Support for multiple delivery sites:� Manage the delivery of desktop and application offerings eff iciently at scale

across multiple XenApp and XenDesktop sites. This release provides new functionality and UI to manage multiple XenApp

and XenDesktop sites within a single location or domain – including support for multiple XenApp and XenDesktop

versions and App Orchestration 2.6. The new site management UI displays the details for each site as well as the

configured offerings and customer relationships.

Version co-existence and upgrade via migration: The new features in this release allow for upgrades by way of

migration for service providers wanting to host services on the latest XenApp and XenDesktop releases. Choose to

upgrade sites in place or migrate offerings to newly deployed sites to de-risk upgrade scenarios and ensure continuity of

services.

Delivery group management :� In this release, the Hosted Apps and Desktop Service has surfaced the XenApp and

XenDesktop delivery group concepts in a newly added interface. This addition clarif ies how Hosted Apps and Desktops

offering assignment and provisioning maps into the underlying site configuration. This addition simplif ies tenant isolation

for service providers managing shared or private offerings.

Performance optimization:� Speed management of app and desktop services with faster and more responsive UIs.

New performance optimizations for offering management and provisioning allow service providers to quickly move

between UIs without delay. Newly added discovery actions allow for UIs to load existing customer and service data

quickly and discover new offerings and delivery groups on demand when needed.

Detailed usage tracking and insight : �Find improved usability throughout the service that allows service providers to

quickly identify which tenants are using each site, delivery group and offering. This release provides quickly accessible

context into who’s using what, thereby simplifying and speeding up management and support tasks.

Offering discovery and removal of _Offer_ pref ix requirement : In this release, it is no longer required to add the

Page 130: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.130https://docs.citrix.com

_Offer_ prefixes for XenApp and XenDesktop delivery groups and applications to be discovered by the service. This

release uses a new offering discovery process to surface apps and desktops published on XenApp and XenDesktop sites

– allowing the underlying delivery groups and applications to be named as the service provider chooses.

Simplif ied delivery group isolation: New simplif ied app and desktop onboarding makes it easier to introduce new

delivery groups and assign them to a specif ic tenant. In this version, the Hosted Apps and Desktops service will no longer

clone or replicate delivery groups during provisioning. All delivery groups are created outside of CPSM by the service

provider then discovered and assigned in the Hosted Apps and Desktops service.

Backwards compatibility with previous version: In this version, legacy XenApp and XenDesktop offerings that use

the _Offer_ prefix as well as App Orchestration 2.6 are supported after the upgrade.

What's new in Version 11.5.3

Multi-User service provisioning and offering management :

Manage delivery of desktop and application offerings eff iciently at scale. This release enables bulk user provisioning and

deprovisioning of services. In a single operation across multiple users, offerings can be added or removed, or a f ixed set of

offerings can be applied to users.

Backup datacenter support :

Deliver highly available and disaster-tolerant app and desktop services using the multi-datacenter design of Citrix App

Orchestration. Provide a tenant-level backup datacenter property set during service provisioning. Downstream

automation and orchestration technology helps ensure appropriate app and desktop delivery infrastructure is deployed

in primary and backup datacenters.

High-Availability and disaster recovery guidance:

Maintain core portal capabilities to ensure onboarding, reporting, provisioning remain online. Continue leveraging user

management and service provisioning capabilities during disaster plan execution. Ensure customer self-service and help

desk teams continue operations. Limit manual touch and out of band configuration when reacting to datacenter

outages

XenDesktop 7.6 application folder support :

Simplify management of application and desktop service offerings using XenDesktop 7.6 application folders. Define

service offerings residing in application folders to design and organize a back-end delivery infrastructure that simplif ies

management of multi-tenant design.

Increased quality and resiliency:

Find improved service resiliency and reliability when provisioning in multi-domain requirements, more eff icient delivery of

private tenant offerings and additional support for highly configurable automated provisioning.

Known Issues

When creating a delivery group or any application in XenDesktop, XenApp or App Orchestration, the usage of excessively

long names leads to the failure of provisioning offerings to customers.

This new release of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service only supports multiple XenDesktop sites along with an optional

single XenApp and single App Orchestration backend. This new release does not support multiple XenApp deployments or

multiple App Orchestration deployments. The deployments, in this scenario, refer to the server connections in

CloudPortal Services Manager. For example, you can not create multiple server connections for XenApp or for App

Orchestration in CloudPortal Services Manager.

It is recommended to wait until a workflow is completed while subscribing or unsubscribing customers from App

Orchestration offerings. Failure to do so may lead to errors in the connection to that particular tenant in CloudPortal

Services Manager.

When you upgrade the web service on web service servers without uninstalling the previous version of Hosted Apps and

Desktops web service in advance, you need to launch the Hosted Apps and Desktops Conf iguration Tool to

complete the configuration.

Duplication of XenApp applications in XenApp farm is not supported. This is to prevent the duplicated offering from

sharing the same CitrixAppId with its parent application, which will lead to confusion in the new Hosted Apps and

Desktops Service.

The Type value for delivery groups created in XenDesktop 7.8 and 7.9 can be inconsistent with the Type value in

CloudPortal Services Manager. For example, when creating a delivery group in XenDesktop 7.8 or 7.9 without any type,

the Type value displayed in Citrix Studio is “-”, and the Type value displayed on the delivery group management page of

CloudPortal Service Manager is “Desktop and Applications”.

When you have multiple web service server connections in your CloudPortal Services Manger deployment, once a server

connection is tested with errors, you must reconfigure the server connection and make it successful, otherwise the

failed server connection can result in sites, delivery groups, and offerings retrieving errors for other server connections.

Changing the value of HAAD Subscription Group Type propertyis not supported if you want CloudPortal Services

Manger to manage offerings of App Orchestration.

When you create a delivery group with type Desktops and Applications, you must not create any applications that have

the same name as the delivery group.

FAQ

Q: How do I change the group type created on the Domain Controller while provisioning a service to a customer?

A: A new property named HAAD Subscription Group Type is added in Service Settings to determine the types of security

groups that are created while provisioning a service to a customer.

You can set the group type for security groups by performing the following steps:

1. Log on to CloudPortal Services Manager as a service provider admin.

2. Under Service Filter, select Active Directory Location Services and choose a Location Filter if applicable.

3. From the Services Manager menu bar, choose Conf iguration > System Manager > Service Deployment .

4. Expand Hosted Apps and Desktops and click Service Settings.

5. Select the HAAD Subscription Group Type checkbox.

6. Select the appropriate group type for the security groups created while provisioning Hosted Apps and Desktops Service

to customers.

7. Click Apply Changes.

8. Click Save.

NoteThe property of HAAD Subscription Group Type should be set only at the top level or location level by a service provider. The

properties will not work if they are set at the reseller or customer levels.

Once a security group is generated, the group type cannot be changed by changing the value of HAAD Subscription GroupType at the location level and taking a customer service reprovision in CloudPortal Services Manager.

Install the Hosted Apps and Desktops Service

Jul 19, 2016

It’s allowed to manage offerings from XenDesktop, XenApp and App Orchestration simultaneously, which means you can

install Hosted Apps and Desktops web service for multiple Desktop Delivery Controllers (from different Delivery Sites), one

XenApp farm server and one App Orchestration configuration server at the same time if you want to connect to all the

servers by CloudPortal Services Manager.

NoteWhen you upgrade the web service on the web service servers, it is recommended that you uninstall the previous version of

Hosted Apps and Desktops service in advance and then reinstall this new version. This ensures that the Hosted Apps andDesktops Conf iguration Tool is automatically launched and gets CloudPortal Services Manager configured correctly. If you

upgrade the web service without uninstalling the previous version of Hosted Apps and Desktops web service in advance, you

need to manually launch the Hosted Apps and Desktops Conf iguration Tool to complete the configuration. Configuring the

service correctly is necessary for this version to work properly.

For XenDesktop, multiple server connections are supported, but for XenApp or App Orchestration, only one server connection is

supported.

In the new version of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service, creating multiple server connections to a XenDesktop site is not

supported. If you have multiple Delivery Controllers within a XenDesktop site, only one Delivery Controller is required to install the

Hosted Apps and Desktops web service.

Provision the Hosted Apps and Desktops service

Jul 18 , 2016

Updated: 2013-12-06The Hosted Apps and Desktops Service allows service providers to provision customers and resellers with XenApp and

XenDesktop applications, desktops, and resources either directly from a XenApp or XenDesktop Delivery Controller, or

through App Orchestration.

Before provisioning the service, configure the service, configure the delivery groups (only for XenDesktop offerings) and

then configure offerings.

Offerings assigned to a single customer are available only to that customer. In such cases, go to To provision the Hosted

Apps and Desktops Service to customers directly.

Unlike provisioning XenDesktop private offerings in earlier versions of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service, when provisioning

a private XenDesktop offering created after deploying a new version of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service to a customer,

CloudPortal Services Manager does not duplicate extra delivery groups for the isolated offerings.

To provision the Hosted Apps and Desktops service to resellers

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Customers and select the reseller for whom you want to provision services.

2. Select Services. The Customer Services page appears.

3. From the services list, click Reseller.

4. Select the Hosted Apps and Desktops service check box and then click the Hosted Apps and Desktops service name.

5. Under Reseller Service Setup, select the applications, desktops, and resources to be offered.

6. Click an individual offering row and then click Edit to:

Provide directory name guidance: allow Services Manager to generate a directory name (default), specify a custom

directory name, or specify an existing directory.

Upgrade Citrix application and desktop offerings

Jul 18 , 2016

In the new version of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service, the behavior of existing managed offerings and the bavior

ofnewly added offerings are different. If you want to migrate the existing managed offerings to the new ones and use the

new features, follow the following upgrade steps:

1. Prepare to upgrade the delivery group from the old version to the new version

1. Before upgrading offerings, make sure the new version of the Hosted Apps and Desktops Service package has been

imported, and web service has been reinstalled.

2. Unconfigure all existing offerings. For offerings that are in use, deprovision the offerings from resellers or customers.

2. Change the metadata for old version delivery groups.

1. On the Desktop Delivery Controller, log on as an administrator.

2. Open a powershell terminal and input cmdlet to add the Citrix powershell snapin.

Add-PSSnapin "Citrix.Broker.Admin.V*"

3. Run cmdlet to get the delivery groups managed by the old version of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service.

$dg = Get-BrokerDesktopGroup -Name "{delivery group name}"

4. Run $dg. MetadataMap to check the value in property key Version. Ensure that the value in Version is V0 for the

legacy delivery group.

5. Run cmdlet to change the version of the old version delivery groups from V0 to V2.

Set-BrokerDesktopGroupmetadata -DesktopGroupId $dg.Uid -Name Version -Value "V2" – PassThru

6. Run Steps c and d to confirm that the version in metadata of the delivery group isnow Version 2.

3. The delivery group used from the earlier Hosted Apps and Desktops Service can be used as a Version 2 type delivery

group now. Configure delivery groups and then offerings in CloudPortal Services Manager by the new version of Hosted

Apps and Desktops Service.

Migrate the Hosted Apps and Desktops for AppOrchestration to XenDesktop

Jul 18 , 2016

Citrix strongly recommends that you migrate offerings from App Orchestration to XenDesktop - using CloudPortal Services

Manager to directly manage desktops and applications.

Set up and configure XenDesktop

Information about the setup and configuration on XenDesktop is given below:

Create Delivery Sites

A delivery site is composed of identically configured Delivery Controllers and includes the Session Machines, Delivery

Groups, and other components that deliver hosted apps and desktops to tenants and their users at the appropriate

isolation level. When transforming a delivery site from App Orchestration to XenDesktop, you must create a Site in

XenDesktop.

Page 159: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.159https://docs.citrix.com

Create Session Machine Catalogs

A Session Machine Catalog in App Orchestration is identical to a Machine Catalog in XenDesktop. Multiple machines are

collected in one Session Machine Catalog. These machines host applications and desktops for users to access through

Citrix Reciever. You can create a Machine Catalog in XenDesktop when migrating from App Orchestration.

Create Offerings

Offering is a term of App Orchestration. While Offerings are actually applications and desktops hosted on the

machines, they can be subscribed to users through Hosted Apps and Desktops Service of CloudPortal Services Manager,

just as App Orchestration did. In App Orchestration, you can create Offerings with a delivery group isolation level. The

isolation level you select depends on whether you want to create an Offering that uses shared machines or machines

that are dedicated to an individual tenant. Hosted Apps and Desktops support the same logic of isolation by configuring

isolation mode of delivery group.

Create Delivery Groups

In App Orchestration, delivery groups are created in the process of subscription according to the isolation level defined

for the Offerings. Delivery groups can be dedicated to a single tenant's users or shared among the users of several

tenants. After migrating from App Orchestration, the delivery groups must be created in XenDesktop server in advance.

NoteApp Orchestration introduces multiple datacenters to support resources deployed across geographic locations. The new version of

Hosted Apps and Desktop Service does not support manipulation for multiple datacenters, although the concept of multiple

datacenters is similar to the concept of Zones in XenDesktop 7.8 and 7.9. You can still use XenDesktop Zones to utilize the feature

of multiple datacenters.

App Orchestration and CloudPortal Services Manager share the same concept of isolation mode of delivery groups.

Offering Isolation

App Orchestration supports the specif icying the isolation level of offerings, which is used for session machines and

delivery groups when a subscription is made to the offering. The new version of Hosted Apps and Desktops Service

allows the configuration of the isolation mode of offerings.

Subscribe Tenant to offerings

Hosted Apps and Desktops allows service providers to provision an offering to tenants or users so that users can access

a specif ic offering through StoreFront.

NoteNetwork Isolation, StoreFront Isolation, and NetScalar Gateway Isolation are not currently supported in Hosted Apps and Desktops

Service in CloudPortal Services Manager. To utilize these features when migrating, they must be configured separately.

Migrate App Orchestration’s Offering to XenDesktop

The steps for migration are illustrated using the following scenario:

Configure personal archives

Oct 05, 2016

Updated: 2013-04-03Personal archives are a feature made available from Exchange 2010 and beyond that allow users to store older messages in

a server-side mailbox instead of in a .pst file that is stored locally. Users can access their personal archive mailbox through

their Outlook Client or the Outlook Web App.

Enabling personal archives includes the following tasks:Enable support in CloudPortal Services Manager. Because support for personal archives is not enabled by default, you

must enable it for each applicable Hosted Exchange user plan you intend to provision. If support is not enabled, personal

archives are not available to the user when the Hosted Exchange service is provisioned.

Enable personal archives for each user in Exchange. If personal archives are not enabled in Exchange for the user when

the Hosted Exchange service is provisioned, CloudPortal Services Manager enables the feature automatically. If no

mailbox database is specif ied when the user plan is configured, Services Manager selects the appropriate mailbox

database automatically when the user is provisioned.

To configure mail archiving for Exchange 2007, refer to the topic To configure the Mail Archiving service.

To enable support for personal archives

1. From the CloudPortal Services Manager menu bar, click Configuration > System Manager > Service Deployment.

2. Under Service Filter, select Active Directory Location Services and choose a Location Filter, if applicable

3. Expand Hosted Exchange and then click User Plans.

Migrate Exchange Customers and Users to nexthighest version

Oct 05, 2016

Updated: 2013-02-05After installing a new version of Exchange, moving your customers onto the latest version is made simple with CloudPortalServices Manager. From a CloudPortal Services Manager point of view, the process involves the following steps:

Configure Service Settings

Configure new User Plans

Enable new User Plans at Reseller Level

Re-Provision Customer Services

Move Users to new User Plans

Configure Service Settings

1. From the CloudPortal Services Manager menu bar, select Conf iguration > System Manager > Service Deployment2. Under Service Filter, select Active Directory Location Services and choose a Location Filter if applicable.

3. Expand Hosted Exchange.

4. Click Service Settings.

5. Configure the following settings to include details of the new Servers and mailstores that you wish to include when

provisioning Customers and Users with the Hosted Exchange Service

Section Setting Description

Default Preferred Mail StoresRealistically, this should not be set, but if it is, then make sure that the appropriate

stores are selected

DefaultResource MB Mail

DatabasesAdd Mail Databases for the new version

Offline Address Book

(OAB)Public Folder Servers

Select the new server(s) appropriate for Public Folders. Not applicable for Exchange

2013 and above.

Offline Address Book

(OAB)Virtual Directory Select all appropriate Virtual Directories

Public Folders Public Folder Server Select all appropriate Public Folder servers

6. Click Apply Changes 7. Click Save

Configure new User Plans

The tendency might be to reconfigure your current user plans to remove the older Mailstores and add in the new ones.

Page 188: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.188https://docs.citrix.com

Citrix advises against this method to move users mailboxes to new mailstores as it becomes almost impossible to control

the mailbox moves. If a customer administrator was to reprovision one of their user services, and the user plan the user was

on was the one which has been changed, then the mailbox might be moved unexpectedly.

To control the mailbox moves on a customer by customer basis, then it is best to keep all old user plans configured as they

are, and create new user plans for the users to be moved to.

Consider the following example:

The following User Plans are in use:

Bronze (2Gb) Exchange 2013

Silver (5Gb) Exchange 2013

Gold (10Gb) Exchange 2013

The idea would be to create the following NEW User Plans:Bronze (2Gb) Exchange 2016

Silver (5Gb) Exchange 2016

Gold (10Gb) Exchange 2016

Then you can use the Package Migration Wizard to move users from the old plans to the new ones.Firstly, follow these steps to create new User Plans:1. From the CloudPortal Services Manager menu bar, select Conf iguration > System Manager > Service Deployment2. Expand Hosted Exchange.

3. Click User Plans.

4. Create new User Plans

1. Type the name for a new User Plan, and click Create2. Enter all relevant settings to match one of the old User Plans.

3. Click Apply Changes5. Repeat step 4 for all User Plans

6. Click Save7. Under Service Filter, select the Active Directory Location Services radio button, and choose the appropriate Location

Filter if applicable

8. Expand Hosted Exchange9. Click User Plans

10. Update new User Plans

1. Enable the Checkbox beside the new User Plan

2. Select the new User Plan

3. Update all settings that are Location Specif ic, like ActiveSync Policy, Mailbox Storage Limit , Mail Databases and

Enabled Protocols, etc.

4. For Mail Databases, select the new version tab, and select the appropriate Mail Databases. Make sure the old

version has no databases selected

5. Click Apply Changes.

11. Repeat step 10 for all User Plans.

12. Click Save.

Enable the new User Plans at Reseller Level

New User Plans are not enabled throughout the Reseller / Customer Hierarchy automatically, so need to be enabled

Page 189: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

manually. Under normal circumstances, you would need to enable these User Plans for each customer who is going to use

them, but if you are using the Package Migration Wizard, then these User Plans will be added and enabled for the

customers automatically, provided the customer's Reseller has them available already.

Once the User Plan is enabled for the Reseller, then new customers provisioned with the Hosted Exchange Service will have

these User Plans enabled automatically by default.

To enable the new User Plans for the Reseller(s):

1. Find the Top Level Reseller (Service Provider) in the Customers List, and click the Customer to expand the

Customer Functions iFrame.

2. Select Services.

3. Click the Reseller Service.

4. Click Hosted Exchange.

5. Enable the new User Plans.

6. Click Apply Changes.

7. Click Provision.

8. Repeat for all other Resellers

Re-Provision Customer Services

Reprovisioning the Customer Services will move Customer related objects to the new servers. i.e. Public Folders, Address

books, etc, but will leave the Users Mailboxes where they currently are.

User Service Provisioning gets the version from the Customer Service, so this is important to complete before moving on to

the User Services.

To re-provision the Customer Service, simply:

1. Identify the Customer

2. From the Customers page, click the customer in question

3. Under Customer Functions, select Services.

4. Click Hosted Exchange.

5. Change the Version. This can only go up to a higher version. It cannot go down.

6. Click Provision.

Move Users to new User Plans

The Package Migration wizard will allow you to make an old to new mapping of User Plans, and will then only allow the

selection of those customers who are currently using the old User Plans. This will allow you to manage your migration of

user's mailboxes on a Customer by Customer basis, thereby allowing you to control your custoemr migrations better.

To Migrate users mailboxes on a Customer by Customer basis:

1. From the CloudPortal Services Manager menu bar, select Conf iguration > Provisioning & Debug Tools > PackageMigration Wizard.

2. Specify the default wizard behavior by:

1. Leave the Select all Customers checkbox unchecked.

2. Check the Select all Users checkbox.

3. Check the Generate missing destination packages checkbox. This is what allocates the new User Plans to

customers automatically.

Provision the Lync 2010 for Hosting service

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-11Before provisioning customers and users, ensure your Lync 2010 deployment includes the following items:

The Active Directory computer accounts for the Lync Front-End and Director servers have been added to the

CortexAdmins group. After performing this task, reboot the servers to ensure the membership changes take effect.

The domain for the customer you are provisioning is included on the certif icates that exist on the Lync Front-End and

Director servers.

A forward lookup zone has been created for the domain to which you are provisioning the customer.

The following DNS records exist on the domain controller for the customer you are provisioning:

SRV records, _sipinternal and _sipinternaltls

Host (A) record for SIP, specifying the Lync Director server's IP address

When provisioning multiple users or moving or copying users provisioned with the Lync 2010 for Hosting service, consider thefollowing:

When a user is moved to another customer, the service does not transfer with the user. Before moving the user, you

must deprovision the service.

When provisioning multiple users simultaneously or copying a user, and you select a user plan configured with the

Enterprise Voice, PC-to-PC communication, or Audio/Video Disabled option, the service's Line URI f ield remains blank.

After provisioning, you will need to supply this information for each provisioned user. However, if you select a user plan

configured with the Remote Call Control option, the provision operation might fail because the service's Line URI value is

incorrect. If this happens, you will need to re-provision the service to the user with the correct Line URI value.

To partition the address book by OU for a multi-tenant environment

In a hosted multi-tenant environment, user address book searches should return only the users and groups that are in the

same OU (customer) as the user.

Page 229: CloudPortal Services Manager 11 - Citrix Docs · Oct 05, 2016 Updated: 2014-09-29 Citrix CloudPortal Services Manager transforms cloud infrastructures into profitable cloud businesses

© 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.229https://docs.citrix.com

To limit user search results, use the Address Book Service Configuration Tool (ABSConfig.exe) to partition the address book

by OU. That tool is in the Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Resource Kit, available from the Microsoft

download site.

Note: Partitioning the address book by OU does not impact a user's ability to send an instant message to other customers'users.

To update OCSSettingsLocation values in Provisioning web.config files

By default, the CloudPortal Services Manager Provisioning Engine Web Services and Directory Web Services are installed

with the OCSSettingsLocation set to System (for example, CN=System,DC=Machine1,DC=test,DC=com).

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 allows the service provider to install the OCS directory at either

Configuration (for example, CN=configuration,DC=server,DC=local) or System. If the OCS directory is installed at

Configuration, the OCSSettingsLocation value in the web.config files for the Provisioning server and Directory Web Service

must be updated. If the container settings for OCS and the web services do not match, Service Manager displays errors

such as the following during user plan updates or user provisioning:

Server was unable to process request. ---> Failed to load the LCS/OCS policies from path'LDAP://CN=Policies,CN=RTC Service,CN=Microsoft,CN=System,DC=Machine1,DC=local' . Error: There isno such object on the server.

This procedure describes how to change the configuration files for the Provisioning server and Directory Web Service.

1. Log on to the Provisioning server and stop the Citrix Queue Monitor service.

2. On the Provisioning server, open the appSettings.config f ile. This f ile is typically located in: C:Program Files

(x86)CitrixCortexProvisioning Engine.

3. Change the OCSSettingsLocation key value to CONFIGURATION and then save the f ile.

4. Restart the Citrix Queue Monitor service.

5. On the server hosting the Directory Web Service, open the web.config f ile. This f ile is typically located in: C:Program Files

(x86)CitrixCortexServicesDirectory.

6. Change the OCSSettingsLocation key value to CONFIGURATION and then save the f ile.

7. Repeat steps 1-6 for each Provisioning server and Directory Web Service in your Services Manager deployment.

Provision the ShareFile service

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-01-29Before you provision customers with the ShareFile service, ensure they have an existing ShareFile account. When you

provision the service to a customer, Services Manager associates the customer's ShareFile account information with the

customer's information in Services Manager. The service does not provision new ShareFile accounts for customers on

behalf of the reseller.

Deprovisioning the service

When deprovisioning the service for a customer, the customer's users must be deprovisioned, including the ShareFile

customer administrator. Upon deprovisioning, the service data is removed immediately from the customer in Services

Manager. Additionally, you must cancel the customer's account through the ShareFile.com web site.

When a user is deprovisioned, the Employee user account associated with the Services Manager user is deleted immediately.

The user receives no notification from ShareFile.

If you want to reprovision the ShareFile service to a customer whose account has been cancelled, the customer must first

contact ShareFile to re-establish the former account or create a new one. Afterward, you can provision the ShareFile

service to the customer through Services Manager.

To provision the ShareFile service to resellers

When provisioning a customer with the ShareFile service, Services Manager suggests a subdomain based on the customer's

primary domain name (for example, mycompany.sharefile.com). However, Services Manager does not validate the subdomain

prior to account creation. If the subdomain is invalid or in use by another customer, Services Manager displays an error

message.

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Customers and select the customer for whom you want to provision the

service.

2. Click Services and then click Reseller.

3. From the services list, click ShareFile.

4. Click Provision to enable the reseller to offer the ShareFile service to customers.

To provision the ShareFile service to customers

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Customers and select the customer for whom you want to provision the

service.

2. Click Services and then click ShareFile.

3. Under Account Information, enter the following information:

ShareFile Domain: The default top-level domain. For example, sharefile.com.

ShareFile Sub-domain: The customer's ShareFile subdomain. For example, mycompany.sharefile.com.

Administrator Username: The customer administrator's ShareFile account username. The username must be a valid

email address.

Administrator Password: The customer administrator's ShareFile account password.

Employee Licenses: The number of Employee users associated with the customer's ShareFile account.

4. Click Provision.

To provision the ShareFile service to users

When you provision the ShareFile service to a user, Services Manager creates a ShareFile account with the user's First

Name, Last Name, Email Address, and Company properties. If the provisioned user already has a ShareFile account under the

same primary email address as that specified in Services Manager, Services Manager associates the existing ShareFile

account with the user and does not create a new account. After provisioning, ShareFile sends an activation email to the

user that includes a temporary password with which to log on to the ShareFile.com web site and update the account

password.

Users must have a working email address specified in Services Manager to receive the ShareFile activation email. If the user's

email address is not functioning, you must update the email address. To do this, deprovision the ShareFile service for the

user and delete the user from ShareFile. Then, update the user's email address in Services Manager. Afterward, you can

provision the service to the user again.

When provisioned, users can receive the following basic permissions:The ability to create root-level folders

The use of a personal f ile box

The ability to change their own passwords

The ability to view My Settings on the ShareFile.com web site

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Customers and select the customer with the users to whom you want to

provision the service.

2. Under Customer Functions, click Users.

3. On the Users page, select the user you want to provision and then click Services.

4. Expand ShareFile.

5. Under Basic Permissions, select the default permissions to grant to the user when using ShareFile. By default, all

permissions are selected.

6. Click Provision to enable the reseller to offer the ShareFile service to customers.

To synchronize ShareFile users with Services Manager

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-01-29To ensure accurate reporting of customer activity, it is important to ensure provisioned users in Services Manager

correspond with active user accounts in ShareFile. To do this, you can synchronize user accounts between Services

Manager and ShareFile and generate bulk provisioning requests for any account additions or deletions that are detected.

To perform this synchronization, you use the command-line utility ShareFileSyncUsers.exe, included with the ShareFile

service. This utility is installed when you import the ShareFile service package and is typically located at C:Program Files

(x86)CitrixCortexProvisioning Engine.

If the synchronization detects a new ShareFile user for a customer that matches a user in Services Manager, Services

Manager provisions the ShareFile service to the user. If a user in Services Manager is no longer an Employee user in ShareFile,

Services Manager deprovisions the service for the user.

To run this utility at regular intervals, create a scheduled task on the server hosting the Provisioning Engine.

1. Launch Task Scheduler: Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Task Scheduler.

2. Create a new task:

1. In the left pane of the console, expand Task Scheduler Library, expand Citrix, and then select CloudPortal Services

Manager.

2. In the right pane, under Actions, click Create Task.

3. On the General tab, name the task ShareFile Sync.

4. In Security Options, under When running this task, use the following user account, click Change User or Group and

select the Provisioning Engine scheduled task user. By default, this account is cortex_dirmon_svc.

5. Select Run with highest privileges.

6. On the Triggers tab, click New and select Daily. Click OK.

7. On the Actions tab, click New, configure the following settings, and click OK:

In Action, select Start a program.

In Program/script, click Browse and select the path of the ShareFileSyncUsers utility. The default path is C:Program

Files (x86)CitrixCortexProvisioning Engine.

8. Click OK to save the task.

View ShareFile billing information

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2014-01-29The ShareFile service includes the following billing reports:

ShareFile Customer: Displays details for all customers provisioned with the ShareFile service.

ShareFile Plan: Displays ShareFile customers and users grouped by plan at the reseller level.

ShareFile Reseller: Displays ShareFile customers and users at the reseller level.

To view these reports, click Reports > View Reports, and then expand ShareFile.

Important: To maintain accurate billing data for customers, ensure the cost and sales price values you configure for theShareFile service are updated in the event of updates to ShareFile's service pricing.

Export and import service packages

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-11Before exporting or importing service packages, ensure the following requirements are met:

Verify that the source and destination environments for the service package have the same version of Services Manager

installed.

Verify that a user is configured with the two schema administrator roles (All Services Schema Administrator and Service

Schema Administrator), required to create a custom service or import or export a service.

Create the service (Configuration > System Manager > Service Deployment) or configure the property, customer plan,

and/or user plans to be transferred.

Test and validate the service to be exported. A service that contains errors will not appear in the Services Manager

control panel.

You can export and import customer services to transfer them between different Services Manager environments. For

example, service developers can create custom services and provide them to customers to import into their environments.

Customers can customize service settings and user plans in a test environment and then migrate the settings to a

production environment by exporting and importing services.

Service export and import is available for the services provided with Services Manager as well as for customized services. A

customized service is created through the control panel, from Configuration > System Manager > Service Schema.

To transfer a service between environments, export a service to a file and then import that file into a different Services

Manager environment, as described in this topic. The import deploys and enables the service at the Top Environment

Services level.

The export package file includes service properties, customer and user plans, roles and permissions, validation controls, web

server controls and assemblies, and provisioning engine assemblies, actions, and rules. A custom service created from the

Service Schema page includes only the database records for the service settings and plan properties. Before exporting a

custom service, add to it any provisioning engine or web server assembly (.dll) files that contain the code needed to run

actions on the provisioning server or to display custom user controls when provisioning the service on the web page. On the

Service Deployment page and at the Top Environment Services level, create default plans for the base service offering and

update default service properties such as patterns for file locations.

1. Log on to the Services Manager control panel.

2. From the Services Manager menu bar, choose Configuration > System Manager > Service Schema.

3. Expand the service to be exported.

4. Click Export to view the Export service to f ile area.

5. (Optional best practice) Specify the Creator, URL, and Version for the service. The URL should be the full path to the

developer’s site.

6. In the Preview area, review the items to be included in the export f ile and update as needed.

7. To add an assembly f ile (.dll) to the export package for a custom service:

1. In the Add f ile area, click Browse, navigate to the .dll f ile, and click Open.

2. Choose the folder for the dll f ile and then click Add.

8. Click Export.

View and filter provisioning requests

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-11Services Manager enables administrators to review the current status of provisioning requests after they have been

submitted to the provisioning engine.

Administrators can view these requests through the Services Manager system or with an RSS feed. Administrators can also

search for a specific request.

Using the Services Manager control panel, administrators can view the following information:The type of provisioning request (e.g., Bulk Request, Object Provision, Object Deprovision, etc.)

The service and customer for whom the request is created

The date on which the request is executed

The subrequests that are executed as part of the provisioning request and their transaction logs

If all subrequests in a provisioning request execute successfully, the request displays a green status indicator. If some

subrequests do not execute successfully, the request displays a yellow triangle status indicator which, later, changes to a

red status indicator.

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Configuration > Provisioning & Debug Tools > Provisioning Requests.

2. To view the transaction logs and subtasks executed in a provisioning request, click the Request Type entry and then

expand the Request Logs or Sub-Requests nodes.

The Services Manager RSS feed enables administrators to receive notifications whenever a provisioning error occurs.

Because the RSS feed is secured using Windows authentication, an RSS reader that supports digest authentication is

required. You can change the authentication method through IIS, if necessary.

The URL for the RSS feed is http://YourHostHeaderName/cortexdotnet/Rss/CortexProvisioningErrorsRss.aspx.

1. From the Services Manager menu bar, click Configuration > Provisioning & Debug Tools > Provisioning Requests.

2. Under Request Filter, use the following f ilters to refine the list of provisioning requests:

Type displays requests of a specif ic type such as Object Provision.

My Requests and All Requests displays requests that you have created or all requests in the system.

Request Status displays requests of a particular status that have been recorded during the life of the system. For

example, using this f ilter to f ind requests with the Provisioned status displays requests with a green status indicator in

the Status column.

Object Status displays requests where the current status of subrequests matches the status selected.

Note: Using this f ilter to f ind subrequests with the Provisioned status might display some failed provisioning requests

in f iltered results. However, the subrequest itself is not necessarily in a failed state. For example, a provisioning request

to move a customer's user from one Hosted Exchange package to another might fail because the Services Manager

system cannot f ind the mail store for the new package. Although the provisioning request failed, the user is still

attached to the current package.

Upgrade

Oct 05, 2016

Updated: 2014-10-09CloudPortal Services Manager 11.5 supports in-place upgrading from CloudPortal Services Manager 11.0.1, including

Cumulative Update 1 and Cumulative Update 2.

If you are using CloudPortal Services Manager 10, you must upgrade to Version 11.0.1 first, before you can upgrade to

Version 11.5. For more information, refer to the topic Upgrade from CloudPortal Services Manager 10.

If you are using CloudPortal Services Manager 11, ensure you are using Version 11.0.1. For more information about upgrading

your deployment to Version 11.0.1, refer to CTX138867, "Upgrading CloudPortal Services Manager 11.0 to Version 11.0.1."

Upgrading your CloudPortal Services Manager 11.0.1 deployment to version 11.5 involves several steps that you perform insequence. To prepare your deployment for upgrading, perform the following tasks:1. If required, deprovision the Hosted Apps and Desktops service from customers.

2. Disable all locations in your deployment by stopping the Directory Web Service, Provisioning Engine, and Web platform

components.

3. Back up all Services Manager databases (OLM, OLMReports, OLMReporting).

If you have customers who are provisioned with the Hosted Apps and Desktops service that was included in CloudPortal

Services Manager 11.0.1, you must deprovision the service from these customers before performing the upgrade. The

Hosted Apps and Desktops service in version 11.5 includes a new service schema that is incompatible with this version of the

service. Deprovisioning the service ensures the upgrade occurs smoothly and affects only the customer entitlements in

CloudPortal Services Manager; it does not affect the hosted application and desktop resources that you have allocated to

these customers.

If you have customers who are provisioned with the Hosted Apps and Desktops 11.2 service, which was released after

CloudPortal Services Manager 11.0.1, you do not need to take any action. The upgrade occurs as it would for any other

web service.

During the upgrade process, the Configuration Tool removes the Hosted Apps and Desktops service and installs the new

version. After the upgrade is complete, you can reprovision the service to customers.

After you have completed the preparation steps, you can perform the upgrade. The following table lists the required stepsand the instructions for performing them. Perform these steps in the order shown.

Oct 05, 2016

Updated: 2014-08-14This topic describes the upgrade process of web components from CloudPortal Services Manager 11 to version 11.5. For

upgrades, the term web components refers to the control panel web site, the API web service, and all service related web

services.

During the upgrade process, the CloudPortal Services Manager Setup Tool updates all sites to run from the backup andputs all associated sites and application pools in a stopped state. Therefore, if the names of any of the sites or applicationpools in your deployment have been changed from the default, you must specify those changes in an XML f ile before youinitiate the upgrade. To create this f ile, use the following format:<Configuration> <Property Name="<service-id>.ApplicationPool" Value="MyAppPool" /> <Property Name="<service-id>.Application" Value="MyAppName" /> <Property Name="<service-id>.Site" Value="MySite" /></Configuration>The service-id property is the web service's deployment identifier used in the Configuration Tool.

After creating the XML f ile, you can initiate the upgrade using the following command:CortexSetup.exe /ConfigFile:path-to-XML-fi le /Upgrade

When you upgrade the web components, the Configuration Tool performs the following tasks:1. Stop the site and applicable web services in IIS.

2. Back up the site. The default f ile path for this backup is %ProgramData%\Citrix\CloudPortal Services Manager

Setup\Backups\Legacy\component-name.

3. Update physical paths in IIS to point to the site backup.

4. Update the site f iles in the %ProgramFiles% directory.

5. Copy updated site f iles from %ProgramFiles% to C:\Inetpub\site-name.

6. Restore customer content from site backup (for example, downloads, images, stylesheets, or scripts).

7. Restore web.config f ile from site backup and apply updates.

8. Imports and saves the Encryption Service key.

9. Update physical paths in IIS.

10. Restart site in IIS.

In the event a conflict arises during the upgrade, the sites remain in a stopped state and reference the backup created

earlier in the process. Site files in the %ProgramFiles% directory are updated and site content in C:\Inetpub\component-

name are reverted to the previous version. You can then review the configuration update file located in %ProgramFiles% and

make any necessary changes to the deployed web.config file.

For instructions to upgrade web components, see Upgrade web services using the graphical interface or command line.

Updated: 2013-02-12A common task for a service provider or reseller to perform after logging on to the Services Manager control panel is tocreate a customer. A customer is a container that can consist of :

Hosted services that can be configured and made available (that is, provisioned) to the customer's users

A customer administrator who can create and manage users, and provision services to them

Users who access one or more services with which they have been provisioned

Additional customers (known as resellers) who, in turn, can create and manage customers and users of their own, and

provision services to them

To create a reseller, the service provider provisions a customer with the Reseller service. Resellers can, in turn, create their

own customers and enable them to be resellers as well. Service providers have access to advanced system configuration

functions, such as service configuration, which resellers do not.

As you create a customer through the control panel, you specify the customer location (that is, the hosted domain), its

Active Directory organizational structure (optionally), and any advanced properties. Advanced properties can include

password expiry rules, additional organizational structure, and service security roles. You can select one or more security

roles to enable the customer to administer available services. As a final step, the Provisioning engine creates an organization

structure and security groups in Active Directory for the defined customer.

Creating a customer consists of these initial steps:1. Create a new customer by selecting Customers > New Customer from the Services Manager menu bar.

You can quickly create a customer with minimal details: name, email contact information, and a domain name. Services

Manager assigns a default set of restricted and allowed security roles in this case. Alternately, you can add more detailed

information and choose roles for the customer and any inherited customers and users.

2. Create a customer administrator user to manage users and administer services in the customer's organization.

After creating a customer, Services Manager automatically prompts you to create an administrator user. You can cancel

this operation, but this first user created for a customer is always an administrator user.

3. Provision available services to a customer, an action performed by a service provider or reseller.

4. Create users to whom services are later provisioned, an action performed by a customer administrator.

5. Provision services to users, an action performed by the customer administrator.

Manage security roles

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-05-11A security role is a set of permissions that defines customer, administrator, and user access to specific tasks in the services

manager. For example, the first or default user created for a customer is a customer administrator. The customer

administrator is automatically assigned the Customer Administrator security role (and can also be assigned other security

roles). The customer administrator can then assign one or more security roles to users in the customer hierarchy. A security

role can also consist of multiple security roles; for example, the My Account and Services Management role consists of the

My Account Management and My Services Management roles.

Services Manager includes a default set of security roles. A service provider can manage security roles associated with:Customer, user, and service tasks

User services

Reports and reporting

Dialog boxes, menus, or pages in the control panel

This topic lists the default security roles available and describes how to:Create or copy security roles

Export and import security roles, enabling you to design, test, and configure a customized role before implementing it in a

production environment

Export and import security roles

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-02-12Before you import or export a role, consider the following:

You cannot import a security role that already exists in the control panel.

Make any changes to security roles through the control panel, not by editing the XML f ile created by exporting a

security role. Importing an edited security role XML f ile causes the import operation to fail.

Services Manager enables you to import and export roles between Services Manager environments. For example, you can

design and test security roles in a test or staging environment, then import the roles into one or more of your production

environments through an XML formatted file.

To export a security role

1. Click Configuration > Security > Security Roles.

2. Expand the security role to export and click Export.

Manage provisioning changes

Jun 05, 2015

Updated: 2013-03-04During the course of business, resellers or customers might need to change services that are provisioned, the number of

provisioned users, or the level at which a service is provisioned. These changes affect the pricing and billing of services, so

service providers, resellers, and customers need a mechanism for managing these requests in a timely manner.

Using Workflow Approval, you can approve or reject provisioning requests such as deprovisioning a service from a customer,

updating user details, or adding users to an existing service. Approvers can be managers in an organization or members of a

group that is notified whenever a specific type of request is made. All requests move through an approval chain before they

are enacted in the system.

Enabling and disabling workflow approvals

Workflow Approval is not enabled by default in Services Manager. You can enable this feature through the Feature Setup

menu item (Configuration > System Manager > Workflow Setup). Only Service Provider Administrators can enable workflow

approvals and customize notification messages by default. After this feature is enabled, users logging on to the control

panel see the Workflow menu bar item which enables them to view provisioning requests. Additionally, you can configure

approval requirements and create approval chains.

When Workflow Approval is enabled, the following events occur:All users are assigned the Workflow Approval User security role and can view approval requests and responses.

The Workflow Approval Administrator security role is available for assigning to appropriate users.

The My Account Management, My Services Management, and My Account and Service Management security roles are

enabled for all customers. These roles allow users to modify their own account or provision services to themselves which

can be approved by managers or groups you define.

For Service Provider Administrators, a Workflow Approval preview link appears on the Customer Details, User Details,

customer service, and user service pages. When clicked, this link displays a preview of the approval notif ication message

that will be sent when information on these pages is modif ied.

When Workflow Approval is disabled, the following events occur:The Workflow Approval Administrator and Workflow Approval User security roles are disabled for all customers and users.

Workflow Approval role membership is removed from other security roles in which it was included.

For Service Provider Administrators, the Workflow Approval preview link is removed from all control panel pages.

The Bypass workflow approval role permission is enabled for the Authenticated Users security role and applies to all

control panel items governing customers, users, and services. This disables workflow approvals for all customers.

Workflow approval security roles

When enabling workflow approval, you can also enable security roles that allow users to modify their own account orprovision services to themselves without additional approval. When these security roles are enabled for selected users,those users can log on to the control panel and perform the following tasks:

The My Account Management security role allows users to modify their own User Details page. Clicking My Account >

Personal Details displays the User Functions dialog box, enabling the user to click Edit User and make changes to the User

Details page.

The My Services Management security role allows users to manage their own service provisioning. Clicking My Account >

Services displays the User Services page for the logged in user. From this page, the user can provision available services,

change the user plan for a provisioned service, and modify the service settings.

The My Account and Service Management security role confers both account and service management permissions to

specif ic users.

Manager Approval chains

The Manager Approval chain is comprised of users who are designated as managers. You specify a user's manager using the

Manager field on the User Details page in the control panel. In this chain, actions are approved at successive levels in the

customer's organization. For example, provisioning a user with a new service might require approvals from the user's

immediate manager and the director of the user's department.

When a request a generated, only the first member in the chain is notified. The next member in the chain is not notified of

the request until the first member has approved it. If the first member rejects the request, the next member in the chain is

never notified of it. For a request to be approved, all members of the chain must approve it. A request is rejected if any

member in the chain rejects it.

Group Approval chains

The Group Approval chain is comprised of users who elect to receive notifications of specific types of requests. In this chain,

actions are approved by users who perform specific functions within the customer's organization. For example, provisioning

a user with a new service might require approvals from users in the organization's Accounting department.

When a request is generated, all of the group members are notified. The group members can approve or reject the request

at any time. For a request to be approved, a certain number of group members must approve it. A request is rejected if the

required number of members do not approve it. You configure the number of members required from the Workflow Group

Management dialog box. For more information, see Configure workflow approval chains.
