HDX Desktops Summary
Periodically, administrators need to correlate the session load on their virtual desktop infrastructure with their network throughput to understand whether/not adequate network resources are available to handle the load. This is exactly what the HDX Desktops Summary test helps administrators achieve. This test reports the total number of sessions to the VDI infrastructure and the rate at which ICA traffic generated by those sessions is processed over the network. In the process, the test reveals whether/not sufficient bandwidth is available for handling the current and the anticipated session load. The test additionally reports the number and names of unique users to the virtual desktops, thereby indicating which users are contributing to the session load.
Target of the test : Citrix NetScaler HDX Insight
Agent deploying the test : A remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for the virtual desktop infrastructure monitored
|
Measurement | Description | Measurement Unit | Interpretation |
---|---|---|---|
Avg bandwidth: |
Indicates the average rate at which data is transferred over the ICA sessions. |
Kbps |
Ideally, the value of this measure should be low. A high value is indicative of excessive bandwidth usage. |
Unique users: |
Indicates the number of distinct users to the virtual desktops. |
Number |
Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know the unique users to the VDI infrastructure. |
Total sessions: |
Indicates the total number of sessions to the virtual desktops. |
Number |
This is a good indicator of the total load on the VDI infrastructure. |
Note:
This test will report the value 0 for all measures if no desktop sessions exist.
Using the detailed diagnosis of the Unique users measure, you can identify the unique users to the VDI infrastructure.
