Templates present a consolidated view of everything NetScaler is doing for a given application to NetScaler administrators, further simplifying management. From one place, NetScaler administrators can manage, maintain and change the NetScaler configuration for the application. And, this same view provides a framework for NetScaler administrators and their peers in the application groups to work together as existing applications evolve and as new applications are brought online.
AppExpert Templates are designed to be imported and exported, so the benefits of NetScaler for specific applications can be gained within minutes. Import/Export also makes it easy to share application-specific configuration within an organization as well as between organizations.

Otherwise I'm looking forward to see a AppExpert Template for IBM Lotus Domino in the near future.

I'm running NS 9.0 Build 66.12. Also, after using the AppTemplate I didn't have an Vservers setup under my load balancing node. Is this common?

If it is the first then when can we expect updated templates?
If it is the latter maybe you want to rename the templates to make it more obvious.
Thanks!

Do you have an ETA when the updated templates will be available? NS9.0b65 has been retracted by Citrix due to a critical bug. This means, as the templates are versioned, that there are no AppExpert templates available for a Citrix supported NetScaler release.
Is it possible to release AppExpert template files in the same manner as the NetScaler documentation files? Bundle the supported AppExpert templates in a tarball that matches the NetScaler build and is automatically installed if detected in the installation directory.
Thanks!!
