It is a common practice to have a management server, with most (if not all) consoles installed on it. the purpose of this practice are to consolidate the management consoles into centralized servers, and reduce un-needed resources utilization on target servers (e.g : SQL, AppSense, Citrix Delivery Controller, VMware vCenter).
One component that I love to have in my management server is Citrix GPMC. I prefer to configure my Citrix policies via GPO, rather than Citrix Policies. One main reason is to consolidate all policies into a single, centralized location.
This is what you can see from AD server or normal servers/machines without Citrix GPMC installed / enabled.
