This is a how to install Citrix XenApp 6 for Windows Server 2008 R2 Before installing XenApp, ensure that the prerequisite software and Windows roles described in the system requirements documentation are installed. After installing the prerequisites, restart the computer before installing XenApp. During a wizard-based installation, the installer automatically installs prerequisites but the XenApp installation might fail after the prerequisites are installed. If this occurs, restart the computer and begin installing XenApp again. I did experience that the prerequisite if not followed the right way, made problems with the installation of XA, so follow it! Okay let's begin, I assume that you have a Windows Server 2008 R2 freshly installed and updates are in place. Also, remember to make it a member of your domain! The new installer will install all the features you need, so there is no need to install Terminal Server/Remote Desktop Services anymore. As you can see I have just installed a fresh Windows Server 2008 R2, and made it a member of the domain. http://www.ervik.as/index.php/citrix-mainmenu/xenapp/2577-how-to-install-citrix-xenapp-f... 4/8/2011 How to install Citrix XenApp 6 for Windows Server 2008 R2 Page 2 of 18 The installation media for XA 6 is an iso file, this installation guide is made on XenServer 5.5, so I've mounted the iso file and started the autorun installer.
