Configuring Citrix

Citrix offers a complete virtualization solution, where all applications and resources are deployed on a centralized server, and published to remote devices. In ThinOS 9.x, Citrix Receiver is replaced by Citrix Workspace app. Citrix Workspace app, a client software released by Citrix, enables you to access all your virtual apps, desktops, and other Citrix products from a single workspace UI. For more information about Citrix Workspace App, see the Citrix documentation at docs.citrix.com.

NOTE:In ThinOS, USB device can only be redirected in to an ICA session when the mouse focus is inside the session.

For the Citrix VDI related settings in Wyse Management Suite and Admin Policy Tool, Dell Technologies recommends configuring the settings before signing in to Citrix broker. If you have already signed in to the broker, you must sign off or reboot the client.

To access Citrix sessions using Citrix Workspace app, do the following:
  1. Deploy the Citrix Workspace app package using Wyse Management Suite or Admin Policy Tool.
  2. Go to System Setup > Remote Connections > Broker setup, and configure the Citrix broker.
NOTE:The Enable Volume Control for Client Volume option added in Personalization > Shortcut Keys, under Admin Policy Tool or Wyse Management Suite policy settings can be used to control the ThinOS local volume from the remote session. This option is added to resolve the Citrix limitation.

From Citrix Workspace app 2112 and ThinOS 9.1.5067, the following updates are added:

  • The battery status indicator is displayed in the notification area for server VDAs. This feature is enabled by default. In the previous version of Citrix Workspace app, only Windows VDA such as Windows 10 is supported.
  • Adaptive audio works while using User Datagram Protocol (UDP) audio delivery. Adaptive audio is enabled by default. This feature requires VDA version 2112 or later versions. For more information, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops product documentation at docs.citrix.com.
NOTE:From ThinOS 9.1.5067 onwards. you can map a USB drive with NTFS format to Citrix and RDP sessions.

For information about the supported Citrix Workspace app features in ThinOS, see the Citrix Workspace app feature matrix table in the Release Notes of your ThinOS version at www.dell.com/support
