| If in the design phase you required MetaFrame servers to reside in more than the default zone, you will need to create any additional zones and manually move the desired MetaFrame servers to their desired zone. In a MetaFrame XP server farm, a zone is a grouping of MetaFrame XP servers that share a common data collector, as described in the previous section. By default, all servers in a farm that are on the same network subnet belong to the same zone. Zones are designed to enhance the performance of a Citrix server farm by allowing geographically related servers to be grouped together, whether they are connected to the same network subnet or not. The following steps will allow you to create a new zone and then move the desired Citrix servers to the new zone. 1. Open the Citrix Management Console and right Click on Farm Name in the left pane and click Properties 
2. Click on the Zones tab and click the New Zone button. 
3. Enter the name for the new zone and click OK to continue. 
4. Click the server you want to move to the new Zone and click the Move Servers button 
5. Changing the servers zone membership requires a Server reboot. Click Yes to continue. 
6. The Move Servers dialog box opens and you are able to select the Zone you want to move the selected Servers to. In the Select Target Zone drop down box select the Zone you want to move the selected servers to and click OK 
You have now successfully created a new Zone and have moved the selected Citrix Servers to the new zone. Make sure you reboot the server for the zone membership change to take place. |
