The MFCOM scripting interface is documented in
http://apps.citrix.com/cdn/bin/pdf/Scripting_MetaFrame.pdf
It looks like you can automate most CMC functions.
 
Also I have had some luck using the sample tools in the MFCOM and AP SDKs to
automate things.

Apputil is good for removing servers and what not. 

I don't know that the SDK is allowing DS access though.

FR3 includes a command called APPUTIL that lets you modify the servers
assigned to a published application.

 

Doesn't Citrix offer a SDK that can be used to programmatically modify
Citrix configuration? http://www.citrix.com/cdn.

I wish.   Sadly enough all of the things you mentioned are in the DataStore
(SQL db in large farms generally) and besides the indexes the datastore is
not editable by admins. Only by the IMA service as a proxy for the Citrix
management console (which is java). Fun huh...

 

Short meaning is that there is not away to do this either supported or
unsupported by Citrix.

Is there a way to program citrix configuration changes via api?  Things like
changing published app server lists and app permissions?  If you can, are
there any docs out there?

We are going to role out a rather large citrix farm and would like to
automate it as much as possible. 

Thanks!
