Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2 Bundles
Citrix XenApp 6.5

Situation

Citrix server farm and Citrix client have been configured to allow Citrix Session Sharing.

Citrix session sharing is not applying when launching a Citrix published application through a ZCM Bundle Launch Windows Thin Client Application action

Resolution

Workaround:

Instead of using Launch Windows Thin Client Application bundle action create a Launch Executable action with details like:
"...
Command: %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\ICA Client\pnagent.exe
Command Line Parameters: /qlaunch "Farm Name:<name of published application>
..."

Status

Reported to Engineering

Additional Information

Citrix Session Sharing allows that different published applications for the same user can be hosted in the same user session on a given terminal server. Otherwise for each published application launched by the same user, a new user session gets created.
