As long as the management IP is restricted to only secured networks you should be fine. If your management IP is natted to the internet you have other security issues to handle.

Is it a persistent catalog? Or a non-persistent catalog. If non-persistent it is already resetting on each reboot. So you can expand the original image and deploy a new catalog with a larger drive.
If the image is persistent then I agree with Kazimierz. Backup the c:\ drive, deploy it to a new machine with a larger drive, and don't use MCS for it. Just use it as a persistent vm.

Is this machine in a different OU that doesn't have the necessary RDP license configuration pushed to it? I usually only get that message when it is pointing to a different license server version, or if it is set to Per Device instead of Per User, or vice versa.
-
Did you enable websockets in the Citrix Policies for the delivery groups? I believe the default port is 8008 from the gateway to the back-end Citrix machines.
-
Are the Webex or Adobe Connect offloading to the end point? And is the webcam being captured into the session via the webcam channel, or the USB device channel?
Also what firmware are you using on the Igel. I remember I had to do some firmware updates and configuration changes to get webcams to work correctly.
-
This is by design. You don't directly connect to the second hop, think of it like citrixing to a machine, and then launching an RDP session to another. Only the first connection will show the CGP, the second is a direct connection.
-
It can be set from Citrix Studio Policies, from WEM, and from GPO with the Citrix GPO Snap-in Snap-in installed.

What is the error they are getting? Could the application be using a save mechanism that doesn't support the drive names that client drive mapping uses.

Ensure the PVS servers are in the same network as the PVS target devices. I have seen inspection and router load cause high PVS retries. Also make sure that the PVS servers have enough CPU and ram so that they aren't limiting the session bandwidth to the devices.
Ensure all necessary AV exclusions are in place.
How many machines are you targeting per PVS server?

Are you signed into Chrome? If so then the bookmarks will be saved on google's servers.

Also look at the user's workflow. If their personal disk is the same size as other users, then the question is what are they doing in that layer to fill the writecache. If they are loading, manipulating, and unloading files, those changes will stay in that cache until they reboot.
-
Your writecache disk needs to be at least the size of the c drive + user layer size. it can be thin provisioned.
what size is their user layer compared to other users?
-
It depends on what the policy is doing. They usually will block it out so that you don't have 2 vips looking for the same hostname. But you can quickly clone an existing policy and action, just by selecting an existing and hitting add.

I have designed a whole template for terraform, but not for ansible.
The configuration won't match up to the wizard, instead you have to configure all of the sub components manually, so load balancing, cert import, vserver creation, etc.
-
On your Storefront server under Application and Service Logs what message do you get in the Citrix Delivery Log?
-
I have had the same thing happen. If you bypass the LB it works fine. I think it is an issue in the code itself.

You probably will need to rollback your supported client to an earlier version, or if your chromebooks have linux support you might be able to run the linux workspace app.
What I have done with my EOL chromebook is just manually update it to the latest versions. It's very manual, but if you only have a few books it might be worth it.

If you run that command outside of a monitor, does it work and respond with the correct data?
-
You need to login to the download site with your citrix account that is tied to your licensing.

On the VDA do you see any sessions with no name, just a number on them? I have seen that causing this issue, the other issue was something with the session being stuck in the database, and a powershell command was able to clear those out.
I will edit this article when I find that powershell command.Get-BrokerSession -BrokeringUserName DomainName\Username | Stop-Brokersession
If that doesn't work you can hide it with
set-BrokerSession -BrokeringUserName DomainName\Username -hidden $true

1. Profiles. Even streamed profiles cache locally, and they go into that cache.
2. App changes. If the software updates during run it will use that cache. Looking at Teams and Browsers.
3. Micro Updates. Even disabling Windows Update won't stop Edge and Office from updating themselves.
Your writecache drive should be a thin provisioned disk the same size as your c:\ volume. That will allow you to work on the image, and only take as much space as needed. I haven't yet been able to run a desktop or server OS on the low 6 GB recommended writecache disk size.
-
It won't work, it uses underlying hypervisor uids for creating the linked storage. With MCS there is hidden images on the vmfs volume that it uses for provisioning.
Best option, just create new machines, swing to them, and shut down the old. It's faster, easier, and guaranteed to be supported long term.

That won't work unfortunately. Windows Shadowing uses microsoft remote assistance. So you need windows to shadow windows.
If you publish director from a Windows Server browser as a published app, then you can shadow from that to window.

Carl Webster's scripts I believe exports these into a readable format.

Citrix VDI with own IaaS platform
in Machine Catalogs

It depends on what your IAAS is and what the programming language is like. But this would be something you would have to open a ticket and get with the developers about.
