ZENworks on a Citrix Server
This section describes the items you need to consider when deploying Novell ZENworks 10
Configuration Management on a Citrix server. This information is intended to supplement the online
resources that Novell provides to give you a better understanding of the design-related topics and
requirements when deploying a Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management solution on a
Citrix server.
ZENworks Configuration Management is also supported by other documentation (in both PDF and
HTML formats) that you can use to learn about and implement the product. For additional
documentation, see the
ZENworks 10 Configuration Management SP3 (10.3) documentation (http://
www.novell.com/documentation/zcm10/index.html).
The information in this document is organized as follows:

1.1 Understanding the Need for Integrating
ZENworks and the Citrix Server
When ZENworks and the Citrix Server are properly integrated, these powerful solutions provide a
functionally rich and manageable solution that is not possible when they are implemented in
isolation. It is important to provide additional functionality without losing the functionality or
reliability of either of the components.
By integrating Novell ZENworks Configuration Management and the Citrix Server, you achieve the
following benefits:
Improved application accessibility and manageability
Strengthened security through Patch Management
Improved compliance through Asset Management
Improved remote access of applications that are on the Citrix server
Allows you to gain simple and one-click access to the applications on the Citrix server. Having
all your local and remote software in one place allows you to reduce complexity and increase
productivity.
