Component Manager
The Component Manager lets you remove system components that are not going to be used in your
environment, which might be desirable to reduce the image size. For example, if Citrix connections are never
used in your environment, you might want to remove the Citrix component.
As components are removed, the new conguration can be tested before you apply the changes permanently.
You can also undo changes that were made, if the changes have not yet been applied permanently.
IMPORTANT: After the new conguration is applied permanently, all snapshots are removed and a new
factory snapshot is created. Removed components cannot be restored after this point.
