The default Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) software (Desktop OS) installation includes several optional components that some customers might not require depending on their specific use cases. This article provides instructions for excluding one or more of these optional components using command line, for example – Personal vDisk, Citrix User Profile Manager.
Requirements
Basic MSI installation scripting knowledge.
Background
Certain customer use cases might not require several optional components included with the default VDA software installation. For example, installing/upgrading the VDA software on virtual machine images not managed by Machine Creation Services will not require the Personal vDisk. Similarly, some customers might not require Citrix User Profile Management.
Refer to Citrix Documentation – Command line options for installing a VDA for more information.
