Citrix AppDisk
Citrix AppDisk is a new layering technology released in XenApp/XenDesktop 7.8 (all versions) that lets you layer additional applications on top of a Desktop or Server OS host (or both concurrently) instead of traditionally installing those applications directly within the gold MCS or PVS image. AppDisks will be replaced by Unidesk layering technology. Unidesk was aquired by Citrix in January 2017.
Citrix NetScaler traffic capture using nstrace and nstcpdump
Nstrace
Nstrace is a NetScaler packet capture tool. Nstrace dumps packets in the native NetScaler format. These trace files have an extension of .cap and can be analysed with WireShark. You can use specific filters in WireShark as normal to filter through captured data or specify filters using the NetScaler CLI. This allows you to only capture traffic of interest.
Citrix Insight Services
Citrix Insight Services (CIS), formerly known as Tools as a Service (TaaS) is a set of tools available online focused on making the support of your Citrix environment easier. CIS does this by collecting information on your environment, analysing that data and responding with recommendations for you to make to that environment such as hotfix patching recommendations or configurational changes.
