I think this link explains it quite well why you should set the Terminal Server to install mode prior to installing anything. It's not a 100% perfect solution, some users could disregard logging off at end of day so their session is Idle but still Active but then I just have a couple of users to call and get to log off rather than 30-40 users. So combined this will result in no more users will log on to the server I intend to update, and during the night old disconnected sessions from users will be logged off automatically so the server doesn't have any users left on it next morning so I can continue with the updates/installations I need to do. I also have modified the ICA connector in Terminal Services Configuration / Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration to kick out Disconnected sessions after 2 hours. Application Streaming is only able to use a Citrix application as if it would be installed on your computer but without being so, not only run (It publishes an application that is normally) if not, It would be distributed on PCs and could use it without connectivity to the Citrix.

Hi, since you mention server(s) in plural what I always do is prior to updating a server I take it out of the published 'Desktop' application the day before the update so that no more users can log on to it. It is the main feature of version 4.5 Citrix, el Application Streaming, in this document explains how to use it. For the scalability testing, all application services were hosted server-side on AWS.

It enables both local and hosted delivery across a range of device types. A very common thing to happen would be servicing corruption in Windows 2008 R2 which you wouldn't notice until you needed to patch or change any roles/features.Д«est practice as always would be to bleed users off the server first, change user /install, install application, change user /execute and then re-enable logins. XenApp provides application and session virtualization, centralizing application delivery and management. Many different random problems could occur or nothing could go wrong. That said, best practice is to have all users off of the server before switching to 'change user /install' because the server goes back to referencing HKLM which could be problematic for the server. Once you change terminal services to 'application mode', many people can log in.as many people as the server and your licensing can allow.ДЄs soon as you put a server in 'application mode', user sessions point changes more towards HKCU rather than HKLM in the registry. Most servers which allow terminal service connections are in what is called 'administrative mode' which allows 2 RDP connections and one console session.
