This step-by-step blog describes the installation of the Citrix XenApp 6.5 installation including the database setup, the configuration of the licensing server and XenApp Farm. Before starting the installation you have to do some preparations. First of all you have to setup a Citrix Licensing server as described here. For this installation I will use my current Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 which is installed on a separate server.
In this step-by-step installation guide I will install the Citrix Provisioning Services 6.1.16. I will use hotfix CPVS61016 as source for this installation because this hotfix actually contains the full installation. The source for this hotfix can be downloaded here. Windows Server 2012 is not officially supported for this installation, so the installation takes place on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server. For this installation I will use my current DHCP server and Microsoft SQL 2008 server which are installed on a separate server.
Almost every product from Citrix needs the Citrix Licensing Server. It is therefore a good start to first install the Licensing Server before you starts installing another Citrix product. Unfortunately the latest version still supports no Windows Server 2012, but it contains the valuable new feature “Microsoft Active Directory support for Windows license servers”. This means that if you’re in a domain you can add users or groups to the License Administrator Console of the Licensing Server and delegate admin rights.
