HP ProLiant servers. XenServer can be used as a stand-alone virtual machine server or upgraded and combined with other ProLiant servers running the HP integrated Citrix XenServer to create pools of servers sharing storage The agents communicate with XenDesktop and control the start/stop of the - HP ProLiant DL288 | Citrix XenDesktop architecture and implementation on ProLian - Page 3
assign users to dedicated or pooled virtual desktops. Using endpoints that support XenDesktop, such as thin clients, eliminates the need for local hard bulk of the processing to occur in the data center. Along with server and data center consolidation, this can lead to higher utilization, and - HP ProLiant DL288 | Citrix XenDesktop architecture and implementation on ProLian - Page 4
