XenApp Deployment Data Tab / XenApp Information Subtab

AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Application Manager (Home Tab) | Home Deployment Type View

Note:Because Citrix XenApp server only supports App-V 4.x packages and Citrix XenApp profiles, the XenApp Deployment Data subtab is only displayed for App-V 4.x packages and Citrix XenApp profiles.

When a XenApp profile or App-V 4.x package is imported into the Application Catalog, Application Manager mines package elements for Citrix XenApp-specific deployment data. You can view and modify data for Citrix XenApp profiles and App-V 4.x packages and add new data by editing the properties on the XenApp Information subtab of the XenApp Deployment Data tab.

The XenApp Information subtab of the XenApp Deployment Data tab includes the following properties:

Property

Description

Application type

Select one of the following options to specify how this application can be accessed by the user:

•

Streamed to server—Stream the application to the server for access by the user. (Default)

•

Streamed to client—Stream the application to the client device only.

•

Streamed to client or Streamed to server—Stream the application to the client device whenever possible. If the application cannot be streamed to the client device, stream the application to the server for access by the user.

Enabled

To allow users to open this published application, set this property to True. (Default)

If you set this property to False, users will be unable to open this published application even if the application is displayed in the users’ application sets (see Hide when disabled property). When users attempt to access the disabled application, they will receive the following message:

ERROR: The application you have requested is not enabled. For more information, contact your Citrix administrator.

Hide when disabled

Set this property to True to prevent this application from appearing in the users’ application sets if it is disabled. (Default)

If you set this property to False, this application will be listed in the users’ application sets even if it is disabled. If the user then attempts to access the disabled application, they will receive an error message.

Client application folder

(Optional) Applications can be organized into folders when they are presented to the end user in the users’ application set. Whether or not the application’s shortcut will appear in a folder depends upon whether you enter a folder name in this property. For example:

•

If you enter the folder name of Mobile Apps, the shortcut to open this application will be found in the Mobile Apps folder of the users’ application set.

•

If you do not enter a folder name, the shortcut to open this application will be found in the root directory of the users’ application set.

Add to the client’s Start menu

Set this property to True to create a shortcut to this application in the user’s local Start menu. (Default)

Start menu folder

If you have set the Add to the client’s Start menu property to True, use this property to enter the name of the folder that you want the shortcut to appear in, if any. If you do not enter a folder structure, the application’s shortcut will appear in the root directory of Start menu.

To specify more than one level of folders, separate each folder name with a backslash, such as:

Marketing\Design\Print

Add shortcut to the client’s desktop

Select one of the following values:

•

False—Do not add a shortcut to the user’s local desktop. (Default)

•

True—Add a shortcut to the user’s local desktop.

Enable offline access

Select one of the following values:

•

False—Do not permit users to have offline access to this package. (Default)

•

True—Permit users to have offline access to this package.

Cache preference

Select when to cache the streamed application:

•

Cache application at launch time—Caches the application when users launch it. Use this option if the number of users logging on at the same time (and pre-caching their applications) could overload the network. (Default)

•

Pre-cache application at login—Caches the application when the user logs on (selected by default). However, concurrent logons may slow network traffic.

Citrix streaming application profile address

Enter the Citrix streaming application profile address, including the location of the manifest file (.profile). For example, enter the UNC path, such as:

\\MyCitrixServer\Shared\App-V_IntegrationKit\
AppStreamingToAppVConduit\AppStreamingToAppVConduit.profile

Important:This field is required for App-V packages.

Extra command line parameters

Optionally, enter extra command-line parameters.

These parameters are used when the profiled application includes asterisks (**) as a placeholder for additional parameters. If no asterisks are in the command-line string, the extra parameters are added at the end of the command-line.

Server names

Enter the server names where this application will be available. Click the browse button to open the Servers dialog box, where you can enter multiple server names or import a list of servers from an application server list file (*.asl).

Important:This is a required field.

Allow anonymous users

Select one of the following values:

•

False—Do not grant access to anonymous users. (Default)

•

True—Grant access to anonymous users.

Accounts

Enter the accounts that you want to have access to this XenApp profile. Click the browse button to open the Users dialog box, where you can enter multiple user accounts or import a list of users from an application user list file (*.aul).

Note:If Allow anonymous users is set to True, this field is not required. If Allow anonymous users is set to False, this is a mandatory field.
