Ihave the same issue. The Apple Silicon Citrix Receiver does not seem to work with the Zoom Universal Plugin. When switching to the Intel version (using Rosetta), the plugin works fine. I don't know if Citrix or Zoom is to blame.
I have this issue as well. I have tested the Apple Silicon versions of Citrix Workspace since the initial beta. Zoom has never connected for me. Using the Intel version of Citrix Workspace works fine. I'm concerned this is not going to be resolved before Citrix depreciates the intel-only version and goes to a single universal application. Once that happens we may be stuck using an old intel version because Apple Silicon will be selected automatically upon install.
Current issue: I cannot get CheckMK to show any Citrix checks, even though I have copied the citrix_farm.ps1 file to the agent plugins folder. The agent detects the file but does not add any new checks.
I have read and followed the advice from the following forum threads:
[Check_mk (english)] Problems with citrix plugins Check MK 1.4.0p15 - Archive / checkmk-en - Checkmk Community
Citrix XenApp Monitoring - Global Community - Checkmk Community
I have set the checkmk service on our Citrix Delivery Controllers to run as a domain service account, which I have granted full administrator access to our Citrix farm. This service account also has local administrator access on the controllers. And as mentioned, I have already copied the citrix_farm.ps1 file to the correct agent plugin folder on the controller.
Really stuck here on how to use. Due to the fact that this is a built-in plugin, developed by the Checkmk team, it seems this has meant a lack of anything on the Checkmk Exchange, so I either write my own plugin or try getting this to work.
the script is a simple powershell script that you can run manually without an parameters in the context of the service account you created.
Depending on the output we can then troubleshoot further.
The last topic with this kind of error was solved by configuring the Antivirus solution that was blocking the powershell script.
I recently installed the Citrix client (amd64) on Ubuntu 16.04. I downloaded the appropriate file from
citrix.com. The file I got was: icaclientWeb_13.4.0.10109380_amd64.deb . I've installed this before on other installations, Ubuntu and Fedora, without problems. Now however I have noticed that Firefox doesn't show the Citrix receiver plug-in that I was expecting there.
Hmm, after trying some more it seems that the Citrix reciever is working, but that there is just no plugin in the plugin-list in Firefox visible. When I go to my company's Citrix login page I can login and start a session. Firefox will ask if I want to save the launch.ica file or if I want to open it using the "Citrix Reciever Engine". When choosing the latter it just brings me into a Citrix session. So, it works, even without the plugin... It seems therefore that there is no problem after all...
The use of video conferencing solutions has increased significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and while some users have returned to the office, many are still working from home. Collaboration tools like Zoom are a great way for remote workers to keep in touch with their colleagues and customers.
In the past, collaboration tools were typically installed on the desktop where there are no real restrictions when it comes to CPU/RAM utilization and bandwidth consumption. However, if you deploy Zoom in a VDI environment it suddenly becomes very important that you do everything possible to control how the applications behave.
So how does this work? Well, Zoom leverages the Citrix Virtual Channel SDK to optimize the audio & video traffic. This effectively offloads it from the virtual desktop and sends it directly to the peer. Furthermore, Stratodesk NoTouch Supports the deployment of the Zoom VDI plugin using NoTouch Center.
Step 7: You can verify if the download has been successful by logging into the local configuration of the device. Then go to Debug Information/Cache and verify that the download has 100% completed as shown in the screenshot below.
Additional configuration is also required on the VDA, so you will have to ensure that you install the ZoomInstallerVDI.msi rather than the standard Zoom client. There are also some additional Windows registry options for further optimization.
As soon as ShareFile was installed users started reporting Outlook briefly pausing, hanging, and or crashing. With the plugin disabled Outlook goes back to normal and works fine. I suggested that they contact Citrix ShareFile support which they did.
FYI, I received a pre-release 4.2 plugin from ShareFile Tech support and it seems to be running very stable now. They asked me not to release it to anybody else wink wink , but said they would be releasing it publicly in the next weeks.
In a typical VDI environment, partner.full_name Phone acts as any other application running in a virtual host environment. However, telephony media stream must make several extra network hops to reach the RingCentral data center. If the network infrastructure is inadequate or unstable users may experience degradation in audio quality due to these extra hops.
With the partner.full_name Phone Plug-In for Citrix we work to establish a direct media channel from the local user machine where the Citrix plugin is installed to the partner.full_name data center. This allows us to minimize the number of network hops and optimize the delivery of audio between callers.
Please follow these steps to install partner.full_name Phone Plugin for Citrix. Please make sure to follow these steps before cloning your environment and for each environment you intend to use this plug-in.

The main reason of using the plugin is that the metrics and events will (in some cases right away, in other cases soon) be used by the AI. The AI will tell you that the performance of your service is bad because, for example, an unusually high inbound dropped packets on a specific network interface.
The plugin provides the means for getting more information on Citrix director from Citrix generated desktops running on a Nutanix cluster. Citrix also has its own plugin that can be used. This conversation is about nutanix provided plugin and how to install it.
This document describes how to write a Virtual Channel PlugIn for the macOS client engine. To successfully build a Virtual Channel PlugIn for the macOS client engine, you will need a Mac running macOS 10.11, 10.12 or 10.13 with the Xcode 8.3.3 installed.
There are five folders containing sample PlugIns, named Ping PlugIn Example, Over PlugIn Example, Overlay PlugIn Example, OXS PlugIn Example, and Mix PlugIn Example. The sample folders each contain a complete project, which is designed to be contained within a folder inside the Virtual Channel SDK folder. Each sample folder contains an Xcode project, such as Ping.xcodeproj, a Build Settings folder, an Info.plist file, an English.lproj folder, a Server items folder, along with the C source files and header files for the project. For example, the Ping PlugIn Example contains four source files: vdping.c, vdping.h, pingwire.c, and pingwire.h.
After successfully building a PlugIn, there will be a build folder inside the folder for that PlugIn, containing in turn three folders Debug, Release, and a folder named after your project, like Ping.build. The Release folder will contain the PlugIn as you want to ship it; for example named Ping.PlugIn. The Debug folder contains a debugging version of the client.
The Server items folder contains the source code and other files necessary to build the server counterpart of each sample. You will need the Virtual Channel SDK for Windows which contains the documentation for how to build the server executables from these files. Each of these folders also contains a file like ctxping.exe.sample or similar; this is the compiled executable to be run on the server. The suffix .sample needs to be removed before running it; it is just there to make transporting these files easier.
