Why each option
Provisioning Services requires the Virtual Delivery Agent for Citrix session brokering and the target device software for PVS vDisk boot functionality.
Citrix Receiver (now Citrix Workspace app) is an end-user client installed on user endpoint devices and is not a component required on PVS-provisioned server or desktop OS machines.
XenServer Tools are specific to the XenServer or Citrix Hypervisor platform and are not a universal requirement for Provisioning Services across all supported hypervisors.
The Virtual Delivery Agent must be installed inside the vDisk image so that provisioned machines can register with Delivery Controllers and broker application or desktop sessions to end users.
Target device software is the PVS-specific component installed in the vDisk that enables a machine to network-boot, stream the vDisk from the Provisioning Server, and maintain communication with the PVS infrastructure.
