If you ever have a situation where your Citrix logons sits on “Please wait for Citrix User Profile Manager” for around 20 – 25 sec, you have come to the right post. I have had this strange one where users started to see their logons taking longer than usual. Below is my setup and your results may vary depending on the UPM version that you are running
- XenApp 7.5 site
- Server 2012 R2 VDAs
- Citrix UPM 5.1
- McAfee AV 8.8
Issue Manifestation – Delay of 20-25 seconds on ” Please wait for Citrix User Profile Manager” and this was consistent.
Remediation – Turn ON Citrix Profile Streaming
I am partially to blame for this issue as I had turned OFF Profile Streaming when I had my users complaining that the logoff was taking a little while. Now i need to figure out what is causing the logoffs to take roughly 10 seconds to complete. Already looked at the AV side of things and i have the required Exclusions. Hunt continues and will update with the findings..
So that’s a quick one there for you guys and hopefully someone will find it useful. If you find it working/not working for you, let me know
