In XenApp user session, Citrix maps all of user local and network drives as network/shared drives in XenApp user session. Below are the various things that can count in to drive mappings and possible conflicts:
- User Local Drives
- User Network Drives
- User Home Drive from AD attributes during Citrix XenApp user logon process
- XenApp published application/automation/Scripts that needs to map a folder as drive
While there are so many sources that can make XenServer to map user computer drives. You can control whether or not to allow user local/network drives to be mapped in XenServer user session. However, there isn’t an option to have any drive letter be reserved for your automation to work conflict free.
In such a case, your automation may fail to map a new drive due to drive letter being in-use (conflict). The only option out here is to setup drive letter availability within your automation.
