Citrix PVS | Win2016 target devices not booting

-


A customer Win2016 target devices weren't booting or sporadically booting anymore after updating PVS from 7.13 to 7.15 LTSR.
They stuck at the Windows Logo. When we hard rebooted a few times somehow they came up after a while.

 Citrix now presented a private fix for this issue.

Moving a big amount of Users from one AD Group to another can be easily done with Powershell.  At first create a .txt file where you can copy all of your Users you want to remove from an old AD Group and add them to a new one.

Append the below css style in /var/netscaler/logon/themes/<customTheme>/style.css #skipbutton { display: none; } 2. Flush browser and ns chache for changes to reflect immediately.
