[ACS 4.3][Netscaler] Any experience ? Which version of Netscaler ?
Hello Folks,
Anybody has already tested Netscaler with ACS 4.3 (or other version) ?
Do we need to have a special version of the netscaler in order to get it in
our cloudstack management server ? Any version, MPX, SDX, VPX preferred ?
Is it better to have a certain version or it doesn't matter ?
Thanks for yours feedback and advices.
Regards, Benoit Lair.

Hi Benoit,
You can use
Netscaler VPX 9.3, 10.0(Build 54.7.nc and 54.161)
Netscaler MPX 10
Netscaler SDX 10
To use Autoscale and GSLB you need to use NS 10.0 and above.
NS is part of apache cloudstack oss builds.
Thanks
Rajesh Battala

Amogh from Citrix did a presentation @ CCCNA14 on CloudStack and Netscalers.
Look for it on youtube...

As requirement, for what I understand so far, CloudStack management server
must have access to the management IP of the Netscaler.
Depending of your deployment strategy, if you want to use GSLB, you might
need the Enterprise Edition which have GSLB, otherwise the standard edition
seams to work fine.

Hello Pierre,
Thanks for your response.
Okay, i've already compiled from source with noredist modules :), So i
shouldn't have problem with my acs 4.3 installation.
I'm looking at the 10.1 version and with vpx model too (I still hesitate
with MPX 5650 model).
I've heard there were multiples versions, with differents types of firmware
(sdx,mpx,vpx, enterprise, platinum, ...) So I was asking if there were some
pre requirements between the mgmt server and the netscaler.
Regards, Benoit Lair.

You need Cloudstack build with noredist modules, so you will have to build
it from source.
For the Version of firmware of the Netscaler, you need at least 10.1 if I'm
correct, proper version required is in the documentation.
I'm currently testing Netscaler features on our side. So far I've run with
latest 10.1 on VPX and got it working quite easily.
