Citrix Cloud Updates

To create a machine catalog, you can now use an image shared by an another subscription in Azure environments.

The Citrix Workspace service continuity feature is now supported for the Safari browser. Users must install Citrix Workspace app for Mac and the Citrix Workspace web extension.

Citrix now supports Nutanix Clusters on Azure. It is a single cluster support and offers the same functionalities as Nutanix on-premises clusters.

Previously, when creating an Azure Active Directory (AAD) joined machine catalog, you could not use a Microsoft Intune enrolled master image. Now, with this feature, you can use a Microsoft Intune enrolled master image. This functionality requires VDA version 2212 or later.

Selecting role/scope pairs in Identity and Access Management will be redesigned to improve console performance and enhance efficiency when assigning administrator permissions in Citrix Cloud.

Monitor – Session Launch Diagnostics, requires download of all logs to find components in the workflow having errors. And then lookup docs for the error-code details and resolution. And now, IT admins can use Monitor tool to search for the transaction-id and to see visually errors across the session workflow in Citrix.

In addition to archiving and deleting recordings manually, you can now schedule site-level tasks to automatically archive and delete recordings on a regular basis. The enhancement simplifies administration and helps organizations improve efficiency and save costs.

Access assurance to support geofence blocklist The Safe and Risky location tabs are added under the Geofence settings. Safe location geofencing helps to identify and restrict access outside of a defined geofenced area. Risky location geofencing helps to detect and narrow down risky user access as per the organizations’s known behavior. Both Safe and Risky geofencings are backed by their own pre-configured custom risk indicators.

With this change, Citrix adds Nutanix AHV to the list of hypervisors that can host the Connector Appliance.

Until now, Citrix provided a disk image and accompanying script to support deploying the Connector Appliance in cloud services. With this change the Connector Appliance will be available within the Amazon Web Services (AWS) marketplace and deployed directly without the need for a script.
