Virtualizing System Center 2012 R2 Consoles with Microsoft Application Virtualization 5.0 ( App-V 5.0 SP2 )

No comments
Hello here’s a step by step guide to virtualize your System Center Consoles so you can deploy via SCCM or App-V  Publishing Server.
Virtualizing the System Center 2012 Consoles will help us to keep all the analyst consoles deployed/updated in a controlled environment. The idea of virtualizing the System Center consoles is to reduce the amount of work/time that we spend applying patches. With this solution we will be working only with one application.

Requirements

  • A clean Windows 7 x32 or x64 Virtual Machine with the App-V 5.0 Sequencer client installed with a clean state snapshot/ checkpoint if Hyper-V.
  • Source files for the System Center Consoles. (You might need to server setup)
  • Follow the instructions on the right order when packaging so you don't run into any unexpected issues.
  • Optionally: Join the computer to a domain.
Important: the VMM Console needs to be connected to a domain in order to install.
