Black screen during logon remote desktop
Today I found a server that has run out of disk space on the system, which involves not have the user profile during logon remote desktop and so added that during the boot authentication screen color display black can not see the fields where you type your username and password.
The first thing is to free space on the drive and then to do a computer restart if we can, if the system has been a little shaky after the lack of space. Once you log into remote desktop back to check that the colors do not appear. This is because the Windows registry key [HKEY_USERS \. DEFAULT \ Control Panel \ Colors] has left all its values to zero. To fix this run regedit and enter the following values in this key:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_USERS \. DEFAULT \ Control Panel \ Colors]
"ActiveBorder" = "212,208,200"
"ActiveTitle" = "10 36 106"
"AppWorkspace" = "128,128,128"
"Background" = "102,111,116"
"ButtonAlternateFace" = "181,181,181"
"ButtonDkShadow" = "64 64 64"
"ButtonFace" = "212,208,200"
"ButtonHilight" = "255,255,255"
"ButtonLight" = "212,208,200"
"ButtonShadow" = "128,128,128"
"ButtonText" = "0 0 0"
"GradientActiveTitle" = "166,202,240"
"GradientInactiveTitle" = "192,192,192"
"GrayText" = "128,128,128"
"HiLight" = "10 36 106"
"HilightText" = "255,255,255"
"HotTrackingColor" = "0 0128"
"InactiveBorder" = "212,208,200"
"InactiveTitle" = "128,128,128"
"InactiveTitleText" = "212,208,200"
"InfoText" = "0 0 0"
"InfoWindow" = "255,255,225"
"Menu" = "212,208,200"
"MenuText" = "0 0 0"
"Scrollbar" = "212,208,200"
"TitleText" = "255,255,255"
"Window" = "255,255,255"
"WindowFrame" = "0 0 0"
"WindowText" = "0 0 0"
In a document from Microsoft talk about the RDP client to disable the bitmap cache, but this is useless, only works to change the Windows key.
Hope you help if you occasionally occurs, a greeting.
Creating a database in Microsoft SQL Server for every Citrix product
Citrix Certain products need a data warehouse to store the information regarding the farm. These products are the leading XenApp, XenDesktop and Provisioning Services.
During the installation process for these products, ask us if we create a new data store or use an existing one. When it comes to data warehouse speaks of a database server, in our case Microsoft SQL Server. However, XenApp and XenDesktop products and does not create its own database on the SQL engine, while Provisioning Services if you do. This can cause problems if you perform an installation of both products, XenApp and XenDesktop, since each requires its own database which can not be shared.

Installing a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Sometimes we have applications that need a place to store your data, specifically a database server. These applications during installation give the option of installing the data warehouse together, but sometimes it is more appropriate, for lack of security, scalability and performance.
In our case, we will install a database server Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition dedicated to achieve this have in a centralized location databases and not having to manage a database server for each application.
