Create on-premises Active Directory joined catalogs

This article describes how to create on-premises Active Directory joined catalogs using Citrix DaaS.

You can create on-premises Active Directory joined catalogs using Studio or PowerShell.

Use Studio

The following information is a supplement to the guidance in Create machine catalogs.

In the catalog creation wizard:

On the Machine Identities page:
- Select On-premises Active Directory.
- Click Select service account and select an available service account from the list. If a suitable service account is not available for the selected domain, you can create a service account. For information on Service account, see On-premises Active Directory service accounts.
  
  Note:
  
  Selecting a service account for catalogs with on-premises Active Directory or Hybrid Azure Active Directory joined machine identities is optional. You can enter domain credentials manually.

Modify the service account association

To change the associated service account or add an association to an existing MCS machine catalog, use the Edit Machine Catalog page.

To add a service account, click Select service account on the Service Account page.
To change the service account association, click the edit icon on the Service Account page.

Use PowerShell

You can associate an on-premises service account with an MCS created machine catalog by associating an on-premises service account with the identity pool. You can create an identity pool or update an existing identity pool to associate it with a service account.

For example: To create a new identity pool and associate it with a service account, run the following:

New-AcctIdentityPool -IdentityType ActiveDirectory -IdentityPoolName MyPool -NamingScheme Acc#### -Domain MyDomain.com -NamingSchemeType Numeric -OU "CN=MyOU,DC=MyDomain,DC=com" -ServiceAccountUid $serviceAccountUid
<!--NeedCopy-->

For example: To update an existing identity pool to associate it with a service account, run the following:

$identityPoolUid = (Get-ProvScheme -ProvisioningSchemeName "MyProvScheme").IdentityPoolUid
Set-AcctIdentityPool -IdentityPoolUid $identityPoolUid -ServiceAccountUid $serviceAccountUid
<!--NeedCopy-->

Note:

The $serviceAccountUid must be a valid UID of an on-premises service account.
