2.5.3 Create through Management Console

In the case of a 3-level system structure, when creating configuration information tree manually through the Management Console, please execute in each Management Server.


Create a CT group

Point

To search operation logs in Citrix XenApp client more efficiently

When linking with Citrix XenApp Server(TM) for application, if logon through the Citrix XenApp client in the environment where multiple Citrix XenApp Servers have been set, the Citrix XenApp client will be used to perform load distribution. As a result, it may be confusing which Citrix XenApp Server is connected. Thus, when viewing and searching operation logs, logs collected in all Citrix XenApp Servers must be viewed.
To search more effectively, it is recommended to allocate multiple Citrix XenApp Servers to one CT group and search that group only.
Therefore, please set the Citrix XenApp Server as a CT group in the Management Console.


The following describes the construction of a CT group displayed in the CT group tree.


Create

The CT group tree is displayed in grey. If a group cannot be created, set in [Do not display empty group] of the [Tree Settings] menu. Please cancel the settings.

After a CT group is created, CT policy can be set collectively for CTs in the CT group.

CT group names are displayed in ascending order of character code.

The procedure for creating a CT group is as follows.

  1. Start the [Management Console] window.

  2. Select the upper level group of the group to be created from the CT group tree.

  3. Select [Create CT Group] from the [File] menu.

    → The [Create CT Group] window is displayed.

  5. Select [Reflect CT Group Structure] from the [Tree Settings] menu.

    → The created CT group is updated to the database.

    If [Reflect CT Group Structure] is not performed, [Refresh Policy], [Update at Next Startup] and [Update Immediately] buttons will be grayed out and a message prompting [Reflect CT Group Structure] will be displayed.

    After the created CT is updated to the database, CT group policy must be set as follows. Please modify the policy as needed. For details regarding the modification of policy, please refer to “3.2.1 Modify CT Group Policy”.

    • When creating a CT group under the Root directory

      On the Master Management Server or Management Server where a CT group is created, policy set in the [Terminal Initial Settings] window will be updated.

    • When creating a CT group under other groups

      Policy set in the upper level group of the created CT group will be updated.


Move

The CT group created in the CT group tree can be moved to other CT groups under the same server, or directly under the server.

Even if the group has moved, CT group policy will not change. Besides, though the CT registered in the group will be moved when the CT group is moved, the policy set for CT will not change.

When a department administrator has been set in the CT group, it will be moved if the CT group is moved.

The procedure for moving a CT group is as follows.

  1. Start [Management Console].

  2. Select the group to be moved from the CT group tree.

Create automatic distribution file during CT registration

After CT installation, the client (CT) will be registered to the Management Server once the client (CT) communicates with the Management Server. At this time, all the clients (CTs) are placed under the Root directory.
When automatic distribution file is used during CT registration, the client (CT) will be automatically distributed to each group after the client (CT) communicates with the Management Server.

The procedure is as follows.

  1. Export CT group information.
    For details, please refer to “Export CT Group Information”.

  2. Rename the CSV file to export CT group information as “DTKCTEntry.csv”.

  3. The automatic distribution file (DTKCTEntry.csv) is created and saved to Management Server during CT registration.
    For details of automatic distribution file during CT registration, please refer to “Automatic Distribution File During CT Registration” of “Systemwalker Desktop Keeper Reference Manual”.

    Location for saving
