Cisco has published a paper titled: “Reference Architecture for 500-Seat and 1000-Seat Virtual Desktop Infrastructure, Citrix XenDesktop 7 built on Cisco UCS B200-M3 Blade Servers with EMC VNXe and Microsoft Hyper-V 2012“. Windows 7 usb driver install. The paper which contains 418 pages contains a reference architecture for building a VDI infrastructure which is validated by Cisco, Citrix, EMC and Microsoft.

Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop now use Microsoft App-V 5.0 as the preferred technology to stream applications to user devices. An application profiled using Citrix Application Streaming will most likely be a good candidate for App-V 5.0. Although applications must be re-sequenced using App-V 5.0, it can be done through AppDNA automation. Browse for the App-V integration kit. In the Extra command line parameters field, enter the App-V command to launch the adobe reader sequence for App-V. AppvcontentAdobe ReaderAdobe Reader 9.0 12.0.6425.0000.osd. Note: This is not a XenApp command, but this is an App-V command you can run with the App-V client installed to run App-V.

Rtl 8187 driver. The paper describes provides the architecture and design of a virtual desktop infrastructure that can grow from 500 users to 1000 users. The infrastructure is 100% virtualized on Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 with third- generation Cisco UCS B-Series B200 M3 Blade Servers iSCSI booting from an EMC VNXe3300 storage array. The virtual desktops are powered using Citrix Provisioning Server 7 and Citrix XenDesktop 7, with a mix of hosted shared desktops (70%) and pooled desktops (30%) to support the user population. Where applicable, the document provides best practice recommendations and sizing guidelines for customer deployments of XenDesktop 7 on the Cisco Unified Computing System.
