  • Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Documentation Script V3.41 (FINAL update by Webster)

    Version 3.41 23-Jun-2023

    It has been an honor and a privilege to provide the XenApp/XenDesktop/CVAD series of scripts to you since 30-Sep-2011.

    None of those scripts would have happened without the help of Michael B. Smith, James Rankin, and Jarian Gibson. None of the scripts would have been released without the pressure, I mean encouragement, of Jarian.

    • Added Broker Registry Keys:
      • HKLM:\Software\Policies\Citrix\DesktopServer\AssignmentPolicyMaxDesktops
        • Type: int
        • Default: 5
        • Info: Minimum=1, Maximum=100
        • Summary: The maximum value accepted for the MaxDesktops parameter of the New/Set-BrokerAssignmentPolicyRule cmdlets. This is limited here because enumeration creates MaxDesktops AOFU resources – which if inadvertently set to a very large value impacts enumeration performance and also consumes large amounts of memory.

      • HKLM:\Software\Citrix\DesktopServer\LHC\OutageSummaryEventIntervalSecs
        • Type: int
        • Default: 120
        • Info: Seconds Minimum=60
        • Summary: The interval at which LHC would refresh the outage summary event.
      • HKLM:\Software\Citrix\Broker\Service\State\LHC\PeerStatus
        • Type: string
        • Default:
        • Info:
