Overview

7.6.7 is the Provisioning Services version for Cumulative Update 6 of the Long Term Service Release (LTSR)  program. Provisioning Services 7.6.7 can also be used by non-LTSR customers to upgrade 7.6 base environments.

The benefits of upgrading to 7.6.7 includes several fixes:

Console

When you log on to the Provisioning Services Console using a different domain account, you might not be able to access the farm. This error message appears:

"The domain/user does not have access to the Farm."

[#LC8150]

The Provisioning Services Console and Configuration wizard might be slow when running in a complex Active Directory environment. As a result, the Provisioning Services Console times out. By using this enhancement, instead of searching for all groups in all domains, you can search in preferred domains. You can then stop the search if you find the correct group. The following registry can be set to use different search options:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\ProvisioningServices

Name: DomainSelectOption

Type: DWORD

Value: Set the following values (in decimal) for different search approach

0 = Approach-0 (default) Search in user domain and PVS Admin groups' domains (and other whitelisted domains if configured).

1 = Approach-1. Search with Approach-0, followed by other trusted domains of the user's domain.

2 = Obsolete

3 = Search with Approach-0, the groups found are further enumerated over the parent domains. Used for a special Active Directory environment.

4 = Search with Approach-1, the groups found are further enumerated over the parent domains. Used for a special Active Directory environment.

5 = Approach-2. "One-step" search using "User" attribute in user domain and PVS Admin groups' domains (and other whitelisted domains if configured). Used for a special Active Directory environment.

6 = Search with Approach-2, followed by other trusted domains of the user's domain.

[#LC9065]

The default Active Directory search option might not be able to find the Provisioning Services administrator membership for certain users in a special Active Directory environment. This issue is related to how the group membership is associated through groups over the parent and child domains.
