10.In a new cluster, CloudPlatform adds the first primary storage server for you. You can always add more servers later. For an overview of what primary storage is, see Section 3.6, “About Primary Storage”.

To configure the first primary storage server, enter the following, then click Next:

•Name. The name of the storage device.

•Protocol. For XenServer, choose either NFS, iSCSI, or PreSetup. For KVM, choose NFS or SharedMountPoint. For vSphere choose either VMFS (iSCSI or FiberChannel) or NFS. The remaining fields in the screen vary depending on what you choose here.

NFS	• Server. The IP address or DNS name of the storage device.
	• Path. The exported path from the server.
	• Tags (optional). The comma-separated list of tags for this
	storage device. It should be an equivalent set or superset of
	the tags on your disk offerings.
	The tag sets on primary storage across clusters in a Zone
	must be identical. For example, if cluster A provides primary
	storage that has tags T1 and T2, all other clusters in the Zone
	must also provide primary storage that has tags T1 and T2.

iSCSI	• Server. The IP address or DNS name of the storage device.
	• Target IQN. The IQN of the target. For example,
	iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:01ec9bb549-1271378984.
	• Lun. The LUN number. For example, 3.
	• Tags (optional). The comma-separated list of tags for this
	storage device. It should be an equivalent set or superset of
	the tags on your disk offerings.
	The tag sets on primary storage across clusters in a Zone
	must be identical. For example, if cluster A provides primary
	storage that has tags T1 and T2, all other clusters in the Zone
	must also provide primary storage that has tags T1 and T2.

preSetup	• Server. The IP address or DNS name of the storage device.
	• SR Name-Label.Enter the name-label of the SR that has
	been set up outside CloudPlatform.
	• Tags (optional). The comma-separated list of tags for this
	storage device. It should be an equivalent set or superset of
	the tags on your disk offerings.
	The tag sets on primary storage across clusters in a Zone
	must be identical. For example, if cluster A provides primary
	storage that has tags T1 and T2, all other clusters in the Zone
	must also provide primary storage that has tags T1 and T2.

4.2 specifications

Citrix Systems, a leading provider of virtualization solutions and cloud computing technologies, released version 4.2 of its popular software, Citrix XenApp, which was previously known as Presentation Server. This version marked a significant evolution in providing users with remote access to applications and desktops, emphasizing simplicity, performance, and security.

One of the standout features of Citrix XenApp 4.2 is its improved application streaming capabilities. This technology allows applications to be delivered to users in real-time, reducing the need for extensive local installations and enhancing the user experience. With application streaming, administrators can efficiently manage applications on a central server while ensuring that users have immediate access to the necessary tools.

Another highlight of this version is the enhanced security measures put in place to protect sensitive data. Citrix XenApp 4.2 includes support for SSL encryption, providing a secure communication channel for data transmitted between the server and clients. This is particularly crucial for businesses that need to comply with strict data protection regulations. Additionally, the integration of endpoint security features ensures that unauthorized access to applications is minimized.

Performance enhancements are also a critical focus in this release. Citrix optimized the delivery of applications over various network conditions, ensuring that users experience minimal latency regardless of their location. This was achieved through the incorporation of SmartAccess and SmartControl technologies, which allow administrators to set policies based on user roles, device types, and network conditions. This level of granularity enables organization-wide security without compromising on usability.

The user experience was further improved with a revamped interface, making it easier for end-users to access their applications and data. Simplified menus, clear navigation paths, and the ability to customize user settings contributed to a more efficient workflow, allowing users to focus on their tasks rather than struggling with the software.

Finally, Citrix XenApp 4.2 was designed to be highly scalable. Organizations of all sizes could deploy this solution to deliver applications efficiently, adapting to their specific needs as their user base grows or changes. This flexibility is crucial for businesses looking to future-proof their IT investments while maintaining optimal performance.

In summary, Citrix XenApp 4.2 stands out with its enhanced application streaming, robust security features, improved performance under varying conditions, user-friendly interface, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for organizations seeking to leverage virtualization for remote access to applications and desktops.
