Automated Citrix StoreFront Build on Server 2016 TP4

This post has already been read 4504 times!

I have been working on a Citrix StoreFront build for Windows Server 2016 TP4 and whilst I do like a nice slow manual install (not at all) I thought I would take some of the Citrix Lifecycle Management automation scripts I have written / cobbled together and port them into a local powershell script that can be executed on the server. I have tested this on Windows Server 2016 TP 3 and 4 and it seems to work ok.  Feel free to copy / edit / improve / ignore the script as you wish.  You will need to download the CitrixStoreFront-x64.exe file from Citrix and put it into a C:\Installers folder then run the script. It will display the output to the screen as well as set up and log into the Windows Event Log. Below is the script – hope it help some of you out. Laters, b@m
