Description

On a server with the PVS console installed, executing CVAD cmdlets targeting on-prem DDCs (e.g. Get-BrokerSite -AdminAddress <DDC FQDN>) will encounter popups prompting for Citrix Cloud sign-on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Resolution

When running PowerShell cmdlets targeting on-prem Delivery Controllers from a server with the PVS console installed, first set the following to indicate on-prem ddcs are being used: $XDSDKAuth='OnPrem'

 


Problem Cause

Citrix Daas Remote PowerShell SDK is included as part of the PVS Console install in PVS 2212 and above. 

The Citrix Daas Remote PowerShell SDK can work with both cloud and on prem DDCs.

Citrix Daas Remote PowerShell SDK defaults to authentication for cloud DDCs , but can be switched for communicating with on-prem DDCs using command $XDSDKAuth='OnPrem'
