What’s new

What’s new in 2212

This release of Citrix Provisioning includes the enhancements described in the following sections. It includes several fixes for issues seen in past releases, and issues that we have identified.

Important:

Use the most recent version of the Citrix License Server to receive the latest provisioning features.

When upgrading Citrix Provisioning to the newest version, the latest License Server version is required. If you do not upgrade to the latest version of the License Server, the product license enters the 30-day grace period.

For more information, see Licensing.

Support for accelerated network in an Azure target device

Citrix Provisioning now supports accelerated network in an Azure target device. When you enable accelerated networking in target devices, it lowers network latency, reduces jitter, and decreases CPU utilization. For more information see, What is Accelerated Networking?

Ability to select targets and reconnect

Using the Citrix Provisioning console, you can now select targets and reconnect them.

Support for Windows 11 22H2

Citrix Provisioning 2209 and later supports Windows 11 up to and including 22H2 on Azure, Hyper-V (SCVMM), and VMware.

For more information, see System requirements and compatibility.

Support for ESX 8.0

Citrix Provisioning 2209 and later supports ESX 8.0.

For more information, see System requirements and compatibility.

Use a hostname to specify a Citrix Provisioning server

While using Citrix Provisioning console to specify a Citrix Provisioning server, use a hostname instead of a numeric IP address. This implementation ensures that a secure connection is used instead of the insecure NT LAN Manager (NTLM) protocol which might be disabled on your network. If you want to use a numeric IP address, then you must configure the DNS reverse lookup zones to translate the IP address to a hostname.
