ESLT - Connect Failed. XML Service. Could not find application
Because I was creating lots of connections I was copying the
connections and then editing them with the appropriate
config. This doesn't seem to work too well. You need to create each
connection manually, this seems to resolve the problem

How can I find out why specific AD accounts are being locked daily?
I usually have luck doing it this way:
- Run LockoutStatus.exe.
- Enter the username and find out which of your DCs was the source of the lock ("Orig Lock" column) and when it happened ("Lockout Time" column).
- Examine the Security log on the DC at that time and you will usually be able to pinpoint it to a specific machine.
- Once you have the machine it's usually:
- User has a scheduled task running in their name and their password has changed.
- User has a disconnected RDP session.

Event ID 1071 — Terminal Server Connections
Resolve
Configure the terminal server to allow connections
To resolve this issue, configure the terminal server to allow connections by using the chglogon command-line tool.To perform this procedure, you must have membership in the local Administrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To allow connections:
- On the terminal server, open an elevated Command Prompt window. To open an elevated Command Prompt window, click Start, point to All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
- If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
- In the elevated Command Prompt window, type chglogon /enable, and then press ENTER.
Verify
To verify that connections to the terminal server are working properly, establish a remote session with the terminal server.Read More ->>

Citrix XenApp Load 10000
Open CMD as administrator and ran the following command on the server
lodctr /R
C:\Windows\system32>lodctr /R
Error: Unable to rebuild performance counter setting from system backup store, error code is 2
C:\Windows\system32>cd ..
- If it fails , run it in syswow64:
C:\Windows>cd syswow64
C:\Windows\SysWOW64>lodctr /R
Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter setting from system backup store
C:\Windows\SysWOW64>winmgmt.exe /RESYNCPERF
C:\Windows\SysWOW64>
more information on this command can be found at the following Microsoft site
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300956/
This rebuilt the counters. Opening performance monitor would no longer show the error. After a reboot the value for QFARM /LOAD was normal again.

VDI not found when starting a VM on XenServer 5.6 SP2
When a VM is started on a XenServer host, domain 0, needs to ensure that all resources required by the guest VM are available for it to start. If a VM has had an unexpected shutdown, power failure, etc., we could have a dirty flag on the VDI, which is normally a logical volume in a volume group (Storage Repository). To clear this flag, we need to do the following actions:
1. Via the command line, type “xe vm-start vm=<name of VM>” and you will get a better error message than noted in the XenCenter, namely the UUID of the VDI that cannot be used exclusively by the guest VM.
2. Make a note of the UUID of the VDI and proceed to remove it from the pool database via the following “xe vdi-forget uuid=<UUID of the VDI>. You will then note that the VM no longer is attached to the VDI in XenCenter.
3. On the SR that the VDI is located on, proceed to the “Storage” tab and select “Rescan”. You should see the VDI with no name label on it.
4. To ensure we have the correct VDI, if there are many VDIs with no name, use the following command “xe vdi-list uuid=<UUID of the VDI>. You should see it with no name label or description. We can then label this VDI via “xe vdi-param-set uuid=<UUID of the VDI> name-label=<New name label>”. You should see the labeled VDI in the XenCenter.
5. On the VMs storage tab, select “Attach” and proceed to select the VDI on the SR.
6. VM should start without issue.

Provisioning: How to avoid failover delay
Note: Installing Provisioning Services affects the
following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MRXSmb\Parameters\OplocksDisabled.
Changing this registry key disables Windows Opportunity Locking, providing the
fastest possible failover time when contact with the active Provisioning Server
is lost. Without this change, failover times can take up to one minute. During
this time, Windows does not allow access to the vDisk file that was in use by
the failed Provisioning Server. By disabling Windows Opportunity Locking on
Provisioning Servers, the Stream Service can have immediate access to vDisk
files. However, this reduces caching of remote vDisk data for the entire
Provisioning Server.
OplocksDisabled REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Default: 0 (not disabled)
OplocksDisabled REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Default: 1 (disabled)
OplocksDisabled REG_DWORD 0 or 1
Default: 0 (not disabled)
OplocksDisabled REG_DWORD 0 or 1

XS - Multipathing
Firstly Check true multipath
status (XenCentre can report it incorrectly). You should see two paths in Round
Robin for each Storage Repository
Multipath –ll
If this reports two per SR as
expected then we simply need to tell XenCentre to update/refresh its view this
is accomplished by running the below command, give it a minute and XenCentre
should then report the correct number of connections.
/opt/xensource/sm/mpathcount.py
If the multipath –ll doesn’t
report as expected the quickest and simplest way to resolve is to put the host
in maintenance mode, disable multipathing wait 2 minutes and then re-enable
multipathing. Wait a couple of minutes and then check the multipath status as
per above. Once happy you can leave maintenance mode. This seems to sort
the problem 9/10 times. Failing that if you may need to restart the
open-iscsi service, command below;
Service open-iscsi restart
