Citrix recommends that you uninstall the Citrix Server and its components in the following order:. If you rename a computer running Presentation Server, the new server name is added to the list of servers in the farm. However, you must remove the old server name because it is still listed as a member of the farm.
Before you remove the server name, ensure that you update all references to the new server name, including data collector ranking, published application references, and license assignments. If you are planning to uninstall Citrix Presentation Server from the Resource Manager metric farm server or database connection server for a summary database, ensure that you reassign the server before removing it from the farm.
If you are using a summary database, Citrix recommends that you update the database before removing any servers from the farm.
Ensure that you also create any necessary billing reports from the server before you remove it. The following steps might leave your server unusable. The server might need to be rebuilt. Follow these steps only when absolutely necessary. If there is a question about whether or not the file belongs to Citrix, view the Version tab within the Property Settings of the file.
When in doubt, it is better not to delete the file. Refer to the Disclaimer at the end of this article before using Registry Editor. When you reboot the computer, the system defaults to msgina. By default, these keys do not exist before the installation of Presentation Server.
Delete the following items in the registry using regedit Edit the computer environment variables and remove Citrix references from paths. Then download and run the Autoruns Utility from Microsoft Sysinternals website and remove all references to Citrix and restart the server.

When using server cloning, it is important to clone one server and test its functionality before deploying the rest of the farm. Also, note that although Citrix supports server cloning if done by documented procedures, it is considered a better practice to use an automated installation process for building and rebuilding servers so that a clean server build is assured. Zone settings are not retained when cloning a server. When the Citrix IMA Service on the cloned server starts for the first time, the server joins the default zone.
The name of the default zone is the ID of the subnet on which the cloned server resides. When deploying images to servers on multiple subnets, assign zone information for each server after the imaging process completes. If the Presentation Server's settings are changed when creating a server image, the Presentation Server configuration might not be retained properly so that the data store does not manage configured server information.
Before changing the Security ID SID on the machine used to access the Presentation Server Console, add one of the following user accounts as an administrator with full privileges. Note : You must complete the following tasks before re-imaging a server that is already a member of a server farm. To deploy an already created image to a server that already has Presentation Server installed and exists in a current Citrix Farm.
Complete the following steps:. From the Presentation Server Console , remove the list of servers configured to host any applications. If the server entry still exists in the Presentation Server Console server list, right-click the server name and remove it from the server list.
If a server is not removed from a server farm before a new system image is applied to it, performance problems can result. If cloning is not an option, you can create custom unattended installation scripts for both the operating system and applications, including Presentation Server. When using Microsoft Access MSDE , you must install the first server in the new server farm that hosts the data store.
You can then create an image of the second server in the farm for the deployment of additional servers. Install a second server in the farm with an indirect connection to the data store you created on the first server.
With the second server successfully installed and restarted, log on to the console of the second server as a local or domain administrator.
