Question : Problem: Upgrading from PS 4.5 to XenApp 5.0 Feature Pack

Hi

We are running PS 4.5 and are looking to upgrade to XenApp 5.0 Feature Pack on the same server (Windows 2003). Has anyone got any experience of this upgrade - I can't find any documents on the best way to do this?

What are the main advantages?

Many thanks!

You cannot do what you want to do.

For Server 2003, PS 4.5 is the same thing as XenApp 5.

If you want to upgrade to XenApp 5 for Server 2008 (which is a different product), you will need to use a new server.  Citrix does not recommend or support upgrading the base OS that XenApp is running on.

If you want to "upgrade" from PS 4.5 to XenApp 5 for Server 2003, then just install the lastest License Server, the latest Web Interface and the latest Management Console updates.  Even if you were to install XenApp 5 for Server 2003 from scratch on a new server, the Management Console still shows it as version 4.5.
