XenApp 6 – Setting the default Citrix Administrator failed
Symptom
When you are creating a farm, you might experience issues during the last stage of the configuration setup. The setup fails and the following error message is displayed:
“Setting the default Citrix Administrator failed Error code: – 2147483626”
Cause
Consider the following scenario:
A server has been removed from a farm and the server is restarted. After restarting the server, you recreate a new farm.
In this scenario, there are 3 locations in the registry where the values of the registry entries are not changed after the server has been removed from the farm. Therefore, during the process of creating a farm, it causes a conflict when the computer tries to set the values in the registry.

Resolution
If you navigate to the registry locations, you notice the old values of the farm.
Caution! This fix requires you to edit the registry. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that might require you to reinstall your operating system. Citrix cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. Be sure to back up the registry before you edit it.
To resolve the preceding issue, complete the following procedure:
- Navigate to the following locations in the registry:
- HKLM>Software>Wow6432Node>Citrix>IMA>DefaultCitrixAdminDomain
- HKLM>Software>Wow6432Node>Citrix>IMA> DefaultCitrixAdmin
- HKLM>Software>Wow6432Node>Citrix>IMA> Neigborhood
- Delete the values of the preceding registry entries.

Hi Thomas,
Some features in your screenshots (eg create appointments and contacts) seem to be missing from the iOS version of @WorkMail that got released in April, do you know if these features are still coming in a future release? The Android client is far more functional by comparison.

You can see the DHCP options here:
http://www.wyse.com/kb and search for 21501
You can transfer a image using Wyse Device Manager(WDM), the same goes for smaller updates like new ICA client and so.

Thank you Barry =)
The deep compression codec for Citrix XenDesktop HDX 3D Pro will be intergrated for Citrix XenApp in Excalibur so there is a big difference with bandwidth consumption. This means that XenApp in Excalibur will be the best platform for user density and works great over WAN with high latency as HDX 3D Pro have been known to deliver for several years. Yes i know of cases with WAN optimization, I will gather these and share them.
Best regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Nice work! Awesome to see these results on XenApp! Is there any noticable difference between XA 6.5 and Excalibur that you are aware of? Do you have experience with WAN Optimization and how this helps to reduce bandwidth further?
Kind regards,
Barry
