Q. In Citrix XenApp 6, what's the Citrix Delivery Services Console?

A. Versions of Citrix XenApp before 6 always struggled with needing to spread administrative activities across a series of management consoles. Even as recently as XenApp 5, Citrix hadn't combined all its management functions into a single, unified console—with XenApp 5, some activities were accomplished in the Access Management Console with others (most notably, managing policies) were done inside the XenApp Advanced Configuration console.

XenApp 6 finally unifies all administrative actions within the newly-named Citrix Delivery Services Console. This console includes all the functionality of the previous two, while adding new functionality such as the ability to manage Citrix policies as Active Directory Group Policies.
