Highly available: Connector gracefully orchestrates software distribution on XenApp servers, so no downtime for users. Reuse: Leverage all existing infrastructure investments in XenApp and SCCM. 6

7 SCCM Application Catalog Self-service portal for app subscription What is the Application Catalog? 1. Web-based Self-Service portal for users to subscribe to applications made available to them (Shopping Cart). Also allows requisitions handled by workflows. 2. The most appropriate DT is chosen based on the user s environment. 3. Subscriptions are static to a user-device pair. Freshly reevaluated each time. They don t roam! 4. XenApp DT apps are handled by the XenApp Connector plug-in.

10 App-V and XenApp Why App-V for XenApp? Single image management. Overcomes App compatibility problems. Why SCCM Connector for App-V 5? No need to deploy App-V 5 infrastructure SCCM completely handles package deployment, registration, sync etc. One console for deployment and publishing.

24 Configuring App-V 5 Components in Studio Don t forget to Enable-PSRemoting Publish Apps Wizard (RDS example) Both local and App-V 5 apps published the same way 24

27 How to stream to end point If you want App-V 5 to stream to end points, just install the App-V 5 client on that end point and it will stream. Receiver has local app preference (KEYWORDS:Prefer= App ) that can be configured to give priority to locally installed apps for FTA. If you don't want to the app to run on the dive (or offline) then don't install the App-V 5 client to that end point and it will then run as published app. In other words, both Receiver and now App-V 5 publish apps to users and NOT to devices. ᵒ So the end point (where the user logs on) dictates where the apps runs, not the server ComTrade Management Packs Monitoring Citrix assets with System Center Operations Manager 27
