Compatibility with Citrix App Layering technology

If you plan to use the Full User Layer to save the state of non-persistent virtual machines, you must do the following before installing the Light Agent on a virtual machine template:

  1. Create the file C:\Program Files\Unidesk\Uniservice\UserExclusions\KESLA.txt and add the following exclusions to it:
    • C:\ProgramData\KasperskyLab\
    • C:\ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab\
    • C:\Program Files (x86)\Kaspersky Lab\
  2. Make the following changes to the operating system registry:
    1. In the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Unifltr registry key, create a new DWORD key with the name MiniFilterBypass and the value 1.
    2. In the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Unirsd registry key, create a new MULTI_SZ key with the name ExcludeKey and the value \Registry\Machine\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\KasperskyLab.
  3. Restart the virtual machine.

To install on virtual machines in an infrastructure that uses Citrix App Layering technology, you need to do the following:

  1. Install Kaspersky Security Center Network Agent and Light Agent for Windows on a virtual machine template on the Application Layer.
  2. Create a multi-layer virtual machine image.
  3. Deploy the created image to hypervisors that support Citrix App Layering.
  4. Configure creation of non-persistent virtual machines from the created image.
