Hi Andrew

We are running License Server Version 2.0.0 (old I know).  Ive turned the 
PNAgent automatic refresh off so this shouldn't be an issue.  Unfortunately we 
are not licensed for Edgesite..  The document doesn't really provide any best 
practices around License Server placement on a network.  Will test and see how 
I go.

Does anyone out there do this currently?  IE have a CTX License Server across 
the WAN from their CPS Farm?

Thanks
Ang

Angela, 

 

Page 17 of the latest WI Admin Guide  
(http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX116590)
– or page 21 of the 4,5 WI Admin guide. Which WI are you running? 

 

The WI servers communicate with the Citrix XML Service

 

WI Service would communicate on a refresh/logon. PNAgent would
communicate on logon/user request refresh & whenever you’d configured
an automatic refresh

 

There are advanced settings for XML Communication timeout –
I think the default is about 1 min

 

I wouldn’t expect a significant change based on what you’ve
said – but the latest Ctx Edgesight for loadtesting release has the
ability to launch Web interface connections – so you could test from
where you are now, and then test again from the states to confirm.

Hi



Our company is looking at moving our Citrix Web Interface server to our US Head
Office.  All other Citrix Servers will remain in our country.  We use
Citrix Presentation Server 4 with Citrix Web Interface client and PNAgent
clients.  Will I encounter performance issues if the Web Interface Servers
(running on Windows 2003) are moved across the WAN?  WAN Link size is
around 20Mb and not busy.



Do the WI and PNAgent clients communicate frequently with the Web Interface
servers for config refreshes or is the Web Interface only accessed when logging
on?  I do not have a good understanding of Citrix communication flows with
WI.  If anyone has a diagram that would assist then that would be
fantastic.



Regards

Angela
