[THIN] Re: Citrix upgrade from 4.5 to XenApp

To upgrade PS 4.5 to XenApp 5 is pretty simple.  Just following this simple step:

 

1)      Wait for it…Wait for it… Wait for it… Congratulations! Your now running XenApp 5!

2)      Update WI, ICA Client, Isolation Client as needed

 

 Citrix is getting to be lazy as they hardly put any effort into effort into XenApp 5 for Windows 2003.  The only thing that is new is an updated version of Isolation.  You could say WI is updated but a .0.1 release as WI 5 was already released with XenDesktop.  They also didn’t bother to repackage and rebrand the install.  So really, XA 5 should have been a 4.6 released.

Hi,

 

We currently have a Citrix PS 4.5 and as part of our Citrix advantage subscriptions want to upgrade to XenApp,.

 

 

Is there any gotchas that anyone is aware of for this upgrade.

 

I understand it can be done as put disk into $.5 Server and run Setup.

 

TIA for your help

 

Graeme
