Citrix Integration with Azure Local for Linux workload

Azure Local is a hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) solution that connects the on-premises system to Azure for cloud-based services, monitoring, and management.

With this feature, MCS supports Azure Local as a new platform, and thus supports:

Provisioning of Azure Arc-enabled Linux VMs on Azure Local.
Power management of Linux VMs created on Azure Local.

For more information, see Citrix Integration with Azure Local for Linux workload.

Multi-site management and end-user resource aggregation

As a Cloud Administrator of multiple sites, you can designate one site as the primary and link other sites to it for centralized management. This feature helps improve operational efficiency across various aspects:

Efficient site management. Administrators can manage multiple sites from a single interface, switching between them using the drop-down menu in the upper-right corner.
Seamless navigation. Administrators can seamlessly switch between Studio and Monitor without needing to reselect the site. When a site is selected in Studio, it’s automatically selected in Monitor, streamlining your workflow.
Simplified help desk operations. Administrators can view information for all sites in one Monitor console.
Aggregated end-user resources. End users can sign in to a single Citrix Workspace URL (for example, primarysite.cloud.com) to access their apps and desktops from any linked site.

For more information, see Multi-site management and end-user resource aggregation (Preview).

Secure Private Access integration with Monitor

This preview allows admin to monitor and troubleshoot all Secure Private Access sessions in Monitor.

Available actions include viewing the details of the following:

Secure Private Access active sessions for a user under the Select a Session popup > Active Sessions tab
Secure Private Access failed or blocked enumerations and failed app launches under the Select a Session popup > Denied Access tab
Session and application details view for active and failed app launches, as well as for failed and blocked enumerations

For more information, see Secure Private Access integration with Monitor (Preview) page.

Enrollment of Hybrid Entra ID joined non-persistent VMs into Microsoft Intune

With this preview, you can now enroll Hybrid Entra ID joined non-persistent VMs into Microsoft Intune (with Configuration Manager) for co-management. This feature applies to single and multi-session non-persistent VMs and on all hypervisors and cloud services, ensuring uniform device management across your infrastructure. To avail the feature, the VDA version must be 2407 or later. For more information, see Enrollment of Hybrid Entra ID joined non-persistent VMs into Microsoft Intune.

VUS Multi Release Support (Tech Preview)

Previously VUS only allowed upgrades to the most recent version of the VDA released in each of the Upgrade Track. This new tech preview feature enables you to upgrade to new as well as previously released versions of the VDA. This feature is supported for catalog level Upgrades and individual machine Level VDA upgrades. For more information, see VUS Multi Release Support.
