  1. What’s New In App-V for Terminal Servers Tim Mangan Kahuna: TMurgent Technologies LLP http://www.tmurgent.com Microsoft MVP for Application Virtualization President, Virtualization Boston http://www.virtg.com

  2. Agenda • What is Application Virtualization? • Who are the Players? • New • Licensing Impact of the Microsoft RDS CAL • Server 2008 R2 is 64-bit Only • App-V Without a Server Infrastructure

  3. What is Application Virtualization? Tens of Thousands of Users Server Farm

  4. But software… …can be full of holes

  5. Concept: State Separation App to OS App to OS App to App App to OS & App to App

  6. State Separation

  7. Who is in the App Virt Space?

  8. Microsoft App-V • App-V for Terminal Services (RDS) • App-V for Windows Desktops (Part of MDOP)

  9. Warning: I am going to talk about  Licensing. How to get App-V for ”free”.  For Information Only; verify with Microsoft on details

  10. New Updated Licensing for TS • Sold by App-V CAL(Client Access License) • Server 2008 R2 RDS CAL: includes App-V CAL • Server 2008TS CAL: grandfathers App-V in! • Server 2003TS CAL: no such luck! • Exchange: • “Old” App-V TS CALs • for “New” 2008RS RDS CALs at 4x1 • If SA is current on old CALs as of 9/09

  11. Understanding CALs  Requires separate App-V for TS CAL App-V for TS CAL included App-V for TS CAL included

  12. How does App-V for TS Work? Windows Registry Non virtualized Applications, Services, dlls, and COM components Virtual Application X Files (Data) User Profile Virtualization Settings Package Virtualization Settings Group Policy

  13. Three ways to Deploy • Dedicated Infrastructure App-V Management Servers and Database Publish virtual apps per user (group) Automatic updates Metering & License checks supported • Shared Infrastructure Uses existing SCCM Servers and Database Publish virtual and non virtual apps per device Application updates possible No metering or license check of app usage • Stand-alone Client No back end infrastructure required Publish virtual apps per device Updates are uninstall, reinstall No metering or license check of app usage Wraps Virtual App into an MSI for Deployment

  14. The “New” Way to Deploy • Stand-alone Client With Streaming No back end infrastructure required Deploy virtual apps per device, Publish virtual apps per user. Central Updates (“Active Updates”) No metering or license check of app usage Uses Active Directory for User Assignment BOLD items are differences from #3

  15. Step 1: Prepare Apps • Sequence as always • Save Package in a folder of same name • Copy to central File Share

  16. Step 2: Prepare TS • Install App-V Client in “Stand-Alone” Mode with Streaming • AllowStreamingFromFile = 1 • RequireAuthorizationIfCached = 0 • LimitedDisconnectedMode = 0 • Give User Rights to “Publish App” • Needed for logon script • Install AppV_DeployApp • Configure Server Share • Configure Application OU • Add AppV_Publish to user login script

  17. Step 3: Authorize Apps • Create an “Organization Unit “ (OU) in A.D. • Create a user group for each package • Package names much match sequence package • Assign users as members of package group • This step typically carried out by many people

  18. Step 4: Deploy & Publish • Use AppV_Deploy to add virtual app to terminal server AND load cache (without /GLOBAL) • Now… • As users log in, application shortcuts and FTAs are published to their account. • Later… • Update package by copying updated pkg. • Can use “Soft-link” to eliminate downtime
