Contributed by:

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops manages your Oracle Compute Cloud@Customer (Oracle C3) workloads through a Citrix-managed Oracle C3 plug-in in the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops control plane. With this plug-in, you can create connections to Oracle C3, create catalogs, and power manage machines in the catalog.

Note:

Oracle C3 for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 2603 is only available for customers with Hybrid Rights or Universal License.

Isolated Oracle C3 environments are not currently supported.

Prerequisites

Before you begin:

Ensure that the Oracle C3 REST API is available for your environment. The <system_name>.<domain name> of the Oracle C3 is required for API connection. See Using the API to Manage Compute Cloud@Customer Resources.
Prepare the IAM configuration .ini file and private key used for Oracle C3 authentication. Ensure that the region is set to <system_name>.<domain_name>.
If Oracle C3 is protected by a private CA certificate, obtain the certificate thumbprint for trust validation during connection setup.

Key steps

Set up your Oracle C3 environment.
Create a connection to the Oracle C3 endpoint.
Create a machine catalog.

Note:

Before creating a catalog, ensure one or more Oracle C3 machines are available and VDAs are installed on those machines.
Create a delivery group.
Migrate any remaining unmanaged Oracle C3 machines into managed catalogs or delivery groups.

Where to go next

Install core components
Install VDAs
Create a site
For creating and managing a connection, see Connection to Oracle C3
