Step 2 – installing the licensing server
During the configuration of XenApp, you are prompted for the license server, and it is considered best practice to install it ahead of time. The license server can be shared with other Citrix products such as XenDesktop and XenServer; the minimum version number required for XenApp 6.5 is Version 11.9, which ships with the installation DVD. The license server will require the following TCP ports to be opened if currently blocked by firewalls:
- 8082: Web Console
- 7279: This is known as the
Vendor Daemon Port; end user licenses are checked in and checked out on this port - 27000: The XenApp servers will check the availability of the license server on this port
When purchased, licenses can be downloaded from the MyCitrix website at http://www.citrix.com/mycitrix. Your own MyCitrix ID can be linked to your company's licenses for management.
Note
Not only will you need concurrent user licenses for XenApp, but you will also require valid Remote Desktop Services licenses for each XenApp server that will host user sessions. Citrix licenses are concurrent user and RDS licenses are per user or per device.
Installing the licenses is managed through a web console to the license server on port 8082. This can be seen in the following screenshot:
