Overview: Implementing XenDesktop as a Full Desktop Deployment In this lab you will configure a complete XenDesktop Site using Desktop Deployment and creating catalogs that use Personal vDisks and catalogs that do not use Personal vDisks.

First you will install the Virtual Desktop Agent (VDA) on a two different master images of Windows 7 in preparation for using it to deploy desktops with Machine Creation Services. You will install the VDA without Personal vDisk (PvD), and the second one with PvD enabled.

Second we will install and configure XenDesktop as a full desktop deployment showing you the steps needed to fully configure this solution.

Once everything is installed we’ll go through how to effectively administer the deployment as well as looking at tools such as Desktop Director and HDX Policies.

Exercise 1: Installing the VDA on the Master ImageThe Virtual Desktop Agent (VDA) has to be present on the virtual machines (VMs) to which your users will be connecting. It enables the machines to register with controllers and manages the HDX connection between the machines and the user devices.If you are using XenDesktop or Provisioning services to provision VMs, you need to install and configure the Virtual Desktop Agent only once, but if you are using separate stand-alone virtual or physical machines you must install it on each of the machines so they can register with the controller to allow user connections. In this exercise we will install the VDA on the master image.

Step-by-step guidanceEstimated time to complete this lab: 10 minutes.Step Action

1.Click on the Client VM, click the Console tab and login as Training\Administrator with the password of Citrix123.

Exercise 2: Installing VDA and Preparing the Master Image with PvD

With Citrix personal vDisk, each user gets a personal workspace which they can use to personalize their desktop. The workspace contains any user or department installed apps and any data and settings the administrator chooses to store there. Since personal vDisk workspaces only contain user changes, this radically reduces storage requirements. In this exercise we are going to install the personal vDisk (PvD) on the master image when we install the VDA. We will then go through the nessicarry steps to configure the personal vDisk.

Step-by-step guidanceEstimated time to complete this lab: 15 minutes.Step Action

1. Select the Win7VDA VM, click the Console tab and login as Training\Administrator with the password of Citrix123.

2. Connect to \\ad\xd56cd and run AutoSelect. Select Install Virtual Desktop Agent.

3. Select Advanced Install.

4. Accept the licensing agreement and click Next.

Page 9

Step Action5. Verify Virtual Desktop Agent is selected and click Next.

6. Uncheck Citrix Receiver and click Next.

Note: The Receiver isn’t being installed because in this lab we are not deploying XenApp servers. In a deployment that includes XenApp servers, you can either install the Receiver along with the VDA, or, install a newer version than the one included on the XenDesktop CD (recommended).

7. Select Yes, enable personal vDisk and click Next.

Page 10

Step Action8. In the controller location screen, enter xd56.training.lab in the first

field and click the Check button to verify it can contact the controller. Close the message by clicking OK, and click Next.

9. Leave the default choices and click Next.

10. Click Install at the summary screen and let the installer run through to completion. This should take 2-3 minutes.

Page 11

Step Action11. Click Close and allow the machine to reboot.

Note

The steps below would NOT be performed in this fashion in a real world deployment. They are used to provide insight into how PvD works.

The machine that will become the base image for Personal vDisks now needs to be prepared. The first step is to create an inventory.

DO NOT RUN THE INVENTORY YET

It can be done in two ways:

1) By initiating a machine shutdown. If you shutdown you will see a message warning you that an inventory needs to be taken. Cancel will abort the shutdown.

2) Via the applet Update Personal vDisk.

However, before we create the inventory we will examine what is installed. As a reminder, some of these steps would not be preformed in a real world deployment as part of the daily operations.

12. Login to the Win7VDA virtual machine as Training\Administrator.

13. Open a command window. Change Directory to C:\ProgramData\Citrix\personal vDisk by running the following command.

cd “C:\ProgramData\Citrix\personal vDisk”

Page 12

Step Action14. In the command window run the “dir” command to get a directory

listing. This is an example of the “pristine”state. i.e. no inventory has been taken yet and as such there is no VHD file. Leave this command window open.

15. Now, let’s start the inventory process. Click Start All Programs Citrix Update Personal vDisk.

IMPORTANT: In this lab we DO NOT want the system to shutdown automatically. Ensure that the Automatic System Shutdown is disabled by removing the check in the checkbox. Do this while the Updating inventory process is running.

Notes: It takes 2-3 minutes for the inventory to be updated. First inventory is done when the disk is in read/write mode and

no PvD is attached. Subsequent inventories are done at every VM start when a PvD

is attached.

16. While the Updating inventory process is running, run a Directory Listing once more in the command window. The file named UserData.VDESK.TEMPLATE. is used to collect the information that is used to create the Personal vDisk for each user. It will remain at 0 bytes until the inventory process completes.

Page 13

Step Action17. When the Inventory process completes run a Directory Listing once

more. The UserData.VDESK.TEMPLATE file should now be more than zero bytes.

Note

The initial Inventory is now complete and the machine is ready for use as a base image for XenDesktops using Personal vDisks.

The normal process would be to run the inventory and let the machines shutdown automatically.

18. Shutdown Win7VDA. If you get the following message, click Update inventory. Allow the update process to shut down the VM.

15. Go to the Client VM, and restart the virtual desktop that you are wanting to shadow, and log the user back on.

16. On XD56, in the Desktop Director, make sure you are in the Session Details of the desktop you wish to shadow and click the Shadow button.

17. At the File Download message, click Open.

18. You then see a black, empty Windows Remote Assistance screen. A message has been sent to the desktop asking permission to connect to it. Switch to the Client VM where the virtual desktop is running and click Yes on the message on the virtual desktop to allow the connection.

Page 41

Step Action19. The Remote Assistance session is now functioning. When you are

ready to end it, close the Windows Remote Assistance window on XD56, or click the red X on the Remote Assistance toolbar on the virtual desktop.

Note: If the shadowing looks skewed visually, this problem can be fixed by changing the resolution on the machines to make them match. This is a limitation of Microsoft’s Remote Assistance feature. For the lab, try maximizing the virtual desktop on Client. If that doesn’t work, set both the XenDesktop you wish to shadow and the XD56 machine to 1024x768 and attempt to shadow again.

20. Close Desktop Director on XD56 and log off of all virtual desktops running on Client.
