Machine Creation for Citrix Hypervisor

To publish images to machine creation running on Citrix Hypervisor you need a platform layer for that purpose. To create the required platform layer, you need:

• An OS layer

• Network access to App Layering tools

  Access from the platform layer packaging machine virtual machine to the OS machine tools (in the installation download package).

• Citrix Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) installed on the platform layer

  Install the Citrix VDA installer for the Windows operating system you are using on the platform layer.

• Citrix Delivery Controller

  Install the Citrix Delivery Controller software on the server where you publish the layered image.

  As part of the Connector Configuration, if you include a script to run on the newly published layered image, you need the following:

  • Agent - Installed and running on the Delivery Controller, which allows the appliance to run the script on the Delivery Controller.
  • PowerShell Snap-in - Install the appropriate PowerShell Snap-in on the Delivery Controller.

• Citrix resource information
