Citrix XenAppPrep Cloning tool

Has anyone checked out the XenAppPrep tool?

I stumbled across a post at Shannon Ma’s Blog.
Supposedly it will handle all the Citrix related things.. so basically,

1) Create a Citrix Golden Server
2) Install this tool – If your XenApp server is Virtualized, you could take a quick snapshot before installing.
3) Run the tool
4) Run NewSid and any generalization tools you might like.
5) Image and Deploy.
6) Revert Snapshot if necessary.

Unfortunately, it looks like Shannon Ma’s blog is no longer around so I can’t link to the tool. 

Since the oringal time of this post (2009), it is much better to use just PVS to clone your servers.

Happy Cloning!
