Enter the parameters to set for the OS when creating the L-Server. This setting is only valid if an image for which OS configuration on L-Server deployment is enabled is specified in the [General] tab.
The setting process is performed the first time the L-Server is started. If an image name is not specified, it is not necessary to enter all these items.
Do not specify the value, as the value will not be set for the items for which entry is not required.

Information
OS Property Definition File
By setting the default values in an OS property definition file in advance, the default values of the information on the [OS] tab, etc. are generated when creating an L-Server.
For details, refer to "8.1.7 OS Property Definition File".
Information
VM Guest Administrator Account Settings Necessary When Creating an L-Server with an Image Specified
When creating an L-Server with an image specified, it is necessary to enter the "administrator password" as a parameter.
The entered "administrator password" is the one set for the Administrator of the built-in administrator account, but on some localized editions of Windows the account name may differ. In addition, when the client OS is Windows 7 or Windows Vista, on standard installations the built-in administrator account is disabled, and the user account created during installation becomes the administrator account.
When an L-Server is created with a cloning image that was collected from a localized edition of Windows or a client OS specified, it is necessary to either configure an administrator account for the administrator and set a password, or change the name of the administrator account with the "Administrator password" so that it fits the description given in the definition file below.
Note that when using a definition file, it is not possible to define different administrator ID settings for different versions of images.
[Windows Manager]
Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\etc\customize_data
The definition file name can be used by dividing into definitions that are available for each user group and definitions that are common to the system. Search the definition file of each user group, from the start, for the administrator name corresponding to the image. When there is no corresponding definition, search in the system's common definition file.
Modification of the definition file is soon reflected, and it becomes valid for the creation of L-Servers from that point.
For User Groups
image_admin_citrixxen_user_group_name.rcxprop
Common on System
image_admin_citrixxen.rcxprop
In the definition file, describe the image name and account name for which the administrator password has been configured on a single line.
Image_name = "Administrator_account_name" |
The Administrator_account_name is displayed enclosed in double quotes ( " ).
Blank spaces and tabs other than those in the Administrator_account_name are ignored.
It is possible to use an asterisk ("*") as a wildcard in image names. By specifying an asterisk ("*") it is possible to create substitute strings for strings of indefinite length.
When creating an L-Server from an image, the corresponding image name is searched for from the start of the definition file, and the specified "Administrator password" will be set for the specified administrator account name.
It is necessary to create the definition files using the following line break code and character codes:
Line Break Code
CR+LF(0x0d0a)
Character Code
Shift-JIS in a Japanese environment, UTF-8 in other environments
Example
An example definition file is indicated below.
Image names and administrator account names are set in pairs.
FR_WIN2003_001 = "Administrator" |
For image names that start with "FR_WIN", use "Administrator" as the name of the administrator account.
FR_WIN* = "Administrator" |
Use "Administrator" as the name of the administrator account for all images. When an image name is specified using only a wildcard, the definition after that line will be ignored.
* = "Administrator" |
