Session Details Test
By tracking sessions to each delivery group configured on a site, administrators can not only assess the load on the delivery groups, but can also quickly identify problematic sessions – these could be sessions that are disconnected, sessions that are in an Unknown state, sessions that are reconnecting for some reason. This is what the Session Details test does! This test monitors the user sessions to each delivery group in a site, points administrators to overloaded groups, and also reports the status of sessions to each group, so that problem sessions can be isolated and their problems can be investigated.
Target of the test : A Citrix Director 7.x
Agent deploying the test : An internal agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for each delivery group configured in the XenDesktop broker site
