Connection via Citrix

[Srinivas Naram]

Hello Gurus,

Few devices in my customer environment can be connected via Citrix. How to connect to devices which are accessible only via Citrix using Ansible ?

Thanks

I'd guess this is not possible by design, though I would be interested if you found a way to do it.

I've been setting up Citrix client applications (VDA virtual desktop agent) via ansible and having Citrix admin people publish. VDA runs on a server that is like any other server ... Winrm etc.

Hello,

Can you please provide more details on how you are moving forward with the setup ? Is any documentation available to understand how this can be achieved ?

TIA

Hi, Unless I'm missing something then the main thing to know is that a server being used to have applications published from (as opposed to the citrix delivery controllers) is just like any other server - it can run WinRM which is how Ansible interacts with a windows server. As it happens my company is using Ansible to manage servers that also have citrix apps published from them. At the risk of some more confusion, we are using Ansible to deploy the Citrix VDA software which is a "fairly standard" installer  (it does actually perform part of the install and then requires a reboot and user to logon to trigger the remaining part of the install.  Hope that helps.  Regards, Straff
