[THIN] IMA Service Failure

Greetings list legends of the universe:

 

This one is driving me nuts. We are using MDT to build a Citrix XenApp server, 
FP1, W2K3 R2 SP2

 

If we add the R03 update as a build task, the server joins the farm, with 
errors, then on the second reboot (or restart of the IMS service) the IMA 
Service fails.

 

We get the following errors:

Popup: Windows could not start the Citrix Independent Management Architecture 
on Local COmputer...... service-specific error code 

-2147483647

 

Event Viewer: The Citrix Independent Management Architecture service terminated 
with service-specific error 2147483649

 

Failures

Recreating the LHC, and radecache is successful but doesnt fix

Changing access permissions to TEMP directory doesnt fix a thing

Running CHFARM Fails: An Error occured while attempting to start the IMA 
service to the same farm or any other database (even local access farm)

 

Success

Changing the service to run as Local Service is the only thing that seems to 
work, but im reluctant to do that as all the other servers run as Network 
Service, but I Am concerned the service will not get all the required 
permissiosn it needs if running as local service?!?! I am however able to 
connect to a published desktop on ths trouble server/s

 

Removing R03 from the build process and applying manually after the full system 
build is the only thing that seems to work, which is not a solution as the 
systems need to build themselves with all latest updates....

 

Can we leave the IMA as local system?

Any advice appreciated! 

 

 

 

James
