Most people make most of their XenApp 6.x servers controllers. If that is your case, you can run the script from any XA6 server that has Word 2010/2013/2016 installed. If that is not your case, can you create a VM to be an IT XA6 server, join it to the farm, install Word, the other prereqs and use that VM to run the script. I do apologize for never taking the time to add HTML output to the XA6.x scripts.

Thanks Carl for the reply. I have used your scripts before in 7.x and they turned out wonderful reports.

So if no remote then what are my options. Do I need to run this on each of the XenApp servers, DC’s, etc? But that would mean the SDK and Group Policy Module would need to be installed hence a change on production, which I’d like to avoid.

Thanks!

The XenApp 6 script does not support remoting and neither does the XenApp 6.x Group Policy module.

The only scripts that support remote execution are Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, VMware, Nutanix, PVS, XenApp 6.5 (except for policies), XenDesktop 5 and XenApp/XenDesktop 7. XenDesktop 4, XenApp 5 for 2003, XenApp 5 for 2008, and XenApp 6 do not support remote execution.

Sorry

The PVS and XenApp/XenDesktop scripts have supported being run on another computer since the beginning. Check the help text for each script. Also, those scripts will generate Text and HTML output. Again, check the help text.

Thanks for wonderful scripts. they work amazingly in my test infrastructure.

I generally use the PVS and the XenApp scripts but most of my clients does not have Word 2010 installed on there PVS and Delivery controller, how can I run these scripts without having to install Word on these servers?

Thanks & Regards,
