@CarlWebster I am hoping to get this published in next week.

[CarlWebster]

Thanks. Did you know the Citrix Cloud Remote PoSH SDK is already at 2112?

I explained to Jose Augustine and Yuhua Lu about my CC doc script:

I update the CC doc script infrequently because I can't keep up with what y'all are adding/changing. The CTP Cloud is on 2012, another CC is on 2103, another is on 2106, and the Remote PoSH SDK is on 2112. I can't get consistent script results when the CC brokers are all on different versions.

[davidgreen99]

2112 eh? Sounds like futureware to me! I'll investigate.

[CarlWebster]

DisplayName: Citrix CVAD Remote Powershell SDK - Registry
DisplayVersion: 7.32

All the modules have a DisplayVersion of 7.32.24925.nnnnn

[davidgreen99]

@CarlWebster Where exactly do you see version 2112?

Hey @CarlWebster. The versions for the cloud modules are irrelevant/insignificant. The versions change depending on how we roll code out using our canary mechanisms. We typically update the remote POSH SDK to the downloads page every 3-6 weeks. What should be important from a customer admin perspective is that Remote POSH that has been published to our downloads page should work with all CVADS subscriptions.

I have a feature in the roadmap to add auto-update capability for Remote POSH. That would improve the admin awareness and increase the propensity to upgrade.

Awesome, just in time for the 2112 release! LOL OOPS! I don’t remember seeing this formatting issue before: Using the Group Policy SDK To create a virtual drive and load it with settings, type: New-PSDrive &lt;Standard Parameters&gt; \[-PSProvider\] CitrixGroupPolicy *-Controller* &lt;string&gt; **New-PSDrive &lt;Standard Parameters&gt; \[-PSProvider\] CitrixGroupPolicy ***-Controller*** &lt;string&gt;** Thanks Carl Webster Citrix Technology Professional Fellow | IGEL VIP | Parallels VIPP | Experts Exchange Most Valuable Expert 2019 | VMware vExpert 2020 | VMware Influencer 100 http://www.CarlWebster.com The Accidental Citrix Admin From: davidgreen99 ***@***.***> Sent: Wednesday, December 1, 2021 8:42 AM To: citrix/devdocs-issue-collector ***@***.***> Cc: Webster ***@***.***>; Mention ***@***.***> Subject: Re: [citrix/devdocs-issue-collector] 2109 (Issue #49) @CarlWebster<https://github.com/CarlWebster> CVAD 2109 SDK docs now published.

@CarlWebster Thanks for spotting that. Please confirm this is the correct formatting:

New-PSDrive Standard Parameters [-PSProvider]
CitrixGroupPolicy -Controller string

[CarlWebster]

From my CVAD V3.30 doc script: New-PSDrive ` -psprovider citrixgrouppolicy ` -Name LocalFarmGPO ` -root \ ` -controller $AdminAddress ` -Scope “Global” [ Webster: The Scope parameter was documented and used back in the XenApp 6.0 and 6.5 days. I have kept it in my scripts for consistency. I don’t see this parameter documented by Citrix now, but it is documented by Microsoft. -Scope <System.String> Specifies a scope for the drive. The acceptable values for this parameter are: Global, Local, and Script, or a number relative to the current scope. Scopes number 0 through the number of scopes. The current scope number is 0 and its parent is 1. For more information, see about_Scopes (../Microsoft.PowerShell.Core/About/about_Scopes.md). Required? false Position? named Default value Local Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName) Accept wildcard characters? false ] From an internal document that Jose Augustin sent me: PowerShell providers provide a user interface similar to a file system. At the top of the hierarchy is a drive, which is similar to a file system drive. The next command mounts the provider to a drive so that its objects can be accessed. * The -PsProvider parameter must be specified and the value must be CitrixGroupPolicy. * The -Name parameter specifies the name of the drive. * The -Root parameter specifies the root of the drive in the hierarchy of the provider's object tree. Usually the root of the tree is specified. * The -Controller parameter specifies the Citrix controller to use. On-premises: Use localhost to connect to a controller running on the same machine. If a remote host is specified, the remote host must be a Citrix controller and necessary ports must be open for remotely connecting to the controller. The logon user must be also an administrator of the remote site. If remote connection is to be used, the FQDN (fully qualified distinguished name) of the remote controller with an optional port number must be specified. If no port number is specified, port 80 is used. To mount a drive for on- premises deployments, run the following command: New-PsDrive -PsProvider CitrixGroupPolicy -Name GP -Root \ -Controller localhost When using the PSDrive provider for Citrix AD-based policies: $CtxGPO = “GPO Name Seen in the GPMC” New-PSDrive -Name ADGpoDrv -PSProvider CitrixGroupPolicy -Root \ -DomainGpo $($CtxGPO) -Scope "Global" If the AD policy contains multiple Citrix policies, the PSDrive created has all the policy names at the top level.
