Last Friday Citrix Provisioning Services 6.1 and XenDesktop 5.6 came out and now

it is time to update the LAB and make sure it doesnt erupt in flames.

http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX131938 (PVS 6.1 Release Notes)

One thing that I found out from 6.0 to 6.1 that was super awesome was that it

finally did a inline upgrade. I didnt have to do something that has been kind of

weird since Ardence and Citrix has bought the technology where you have to

uninstall the software then just install it and it would just install and see the old

database and it would be fine. I had complained in the past about this weird

process and it looks like it has finally happened.

Upgrading a exiting PVS 6.0 Deployment (I will also test 5.6 a couple other

versions later)

Wohoo. The number one thing that fails here normally is Configuring Services

which is usually a bad Username or Password or it couldnt configure or

reconfigure the service account for Database access.

Dont forget to update your PVS Console.38.

I rebooted the server just to be sure it was happy.48.

So far I havent seen any major problems so far. Now all I have to do is update

the target devices. We will see if that process is more streamlined in a later article.

Make sure and dont forget this if you have XenDesktop. Make sure you use the

XenDesktop setup wizard to make new Streamed Catalogs and do not make them

from the Desktop Studio because it could lead to yuckyness in the database.

BUG0278019 In a streamed XenDesktop environment, the preferred mechanism

for creating streamed desktop catalogs is to use the XenDesktop Setup Wizard,

which is available from the Provisioning Services Console. While the XenDesktop

Desktop Studio console also provides a mechanism to create streamed catalogs by

importing information from Provisioning Services, it is not the preferred

mechanism because using it can lead to duplicate desktops being created in

multiple catalogs (an unsupported configuration). To avoid this, only create new

catalogs using the XenDesktop Setup Wizard, and only use the streamed catalog

creation mechanism in Desktop Studio if you are reconstructing a catalog from

previously created VMs.
