Using Citrix Optimizer?
a
I did oringally on the OS layer.
w
I thought best practice was not to optimize the OS layer
a
Sorry not on the OS layer but rather on the "Golden" VM before it was imported as the OS layer.
e
Yeah Carl, optimization should go into seperate layer for easy rollback t/s. So now you have some unessecary t/s in front of you
a
For what it's worth, the Native Apps don't have issues when using Full User Layers as Profile MGMT using the same Layers besides the new version of the Platform layer that includes FSLogix.

Webster Webster? That's not confusing at all. πŸ™‚
w
You mean the name Webster Webster?

/me is so confused

Blame it on Microsoft, they started it. I prefer to go by just "Webster". When I registered for my first TechEd conference back in 2004, the reg form asked for your name and your preferred name. I put "Carl Webster" and "Webster". My name badge was for "Webster Webster". Several customer sites I have at long enough to warrant a name badge (like HCA) did the same thing.

Glad this thread was able to bring out the history behind Webster "Carl" Webster πŸ™‚
r
ah, I get it now. πŸ™‚ Thank you for the clarification.

16 years of being Webster Webster

Couple things, don’t optimize before importing the OS Layer into the ELM. The OS Layer should be OS, hypervisor tools, App Layering machine tools only. Then import to the ELM, create an image template from that minimum OS Layer so you cannot accidentally delete it. Do all your patching from a version of the OS Layer.
Second, FSLogix should be in the Platform Layer.
a
Yep, that all makes sense. I did not remove any native apps when running the Optimizer on the image before import. Works perfect with Full user layers but does not work with FSLogix Profile Container using the same OS layer and same platform layer just a new version of the platform layer with FSLogix installed.
b
I forgot to mention, I create a separate layer where I run the Citrix Optimizer, that way optimizations are not tattooed in your OS Layer. What is best practice today may not be tomorrow.
r
All of this confirms my desire to not run app-layers
