My company has purchased 2 new servers and we want to move our old Citrix farm to the new servers.
Here was my thought
Install Citrix on the new servers with a different farm name
Setup the new farm with a differnt farm name
Take down the old farm and change the IP address of the new farm to match the IP address of the old farm
Here is why
We have old Winterms that can not be updated to look for a new server, they have an ini file that points to the IP address of the old farm and looks for a Citrix Application name.
The last time I tried to do a Citrix migration to a new server the farm got corrupted and we had to rebuild it.
Do you see problem with this. Anything I will run into.
