I've developed a PowerShell snapin that gives you the ability to take and revert snapshots with XenServer 5.0. You can find more information about it (including the download) here.

At Shannon Ma Virtualized I've recently posted a blog about the release of XenAppPrep. Check it out here.

Over at Shannon Ma Virtualized I've recently blogged about using the XenServer 5.0 SDK to take and revert snapshots. Check out the post here.

In the last part of Choosing an Automated Deployment Strategy for XenApp I will discuss installing XenApp via images.

Part 3 of Choosing an Automated Deployment Strategy for XenApp gives an overview of deploying XenApp via Active Directory.

In Part 2 of the Choosing an Automated Deployment Strategy for XenApp series I will talk about installing XenApp with the UnattendedInstall.exe tool from the server CD.

In the next few days at Shannon Ma VirtualizedI'll be blogging about the different ways you can install XenApp in an automated fashion. Part 1 is online, Part 2 will be coming tomorrow, and the whole series will be online by Wednesday. Check it out and if you have any questions or feedback don't hesitate to drop me a comment.

One of my side projects these past couple of months has been XenAppPrep - a tool that will help you clone XenApp servers. This tool plays a key role in rolling out XenApp via Provisioning Server, XenServer, and other image-based deployment technologies. I've written a blog about this and recommend checking it out if you're interested in cloning XenApp servers. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a comment. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!
