Angela,
We had the same issue with our ZDC (first server for the farm). We didnt bother 
troubleshooting (sorry to say) we simply rolled back the VM to 'out of box' 
windows 2008 R2 and did NOT apply ANY windows updates until XA6.5 was 
installed....

Hi 

Im trying to build my first XenApp 6.5 farm.  We are running the following: 

ESX VSphere 4 VM 
Windows 2008 R2 x64 
SQL 2008 R2 

When I install the XenApp Server role, Im finding that Citrix MFCOM is hanging 
after a reboot.  Citrix IMA also fails to start.  I haven't even attempted to 
configure the farm (the steps where you select the Datastore location/farm 
creation settings).  Therefore I have hanging services before I have even 
created the Citrix farm.  How do I go about troubleshooting this?  I have 
performed the following: 

- Uninstalled / re-installed Citrix components 
- Logged in with my AD Citrix service account and also the local Server Admin 
account - same issue where MFCOM hangs each time. 
- Ran dsmaint recreatelhc then dsmaint recreateade.  IMA and MFCOM still wont 
start 


Thanks 
Angela
