BSOD Events in ControlUp and How to Investigate Them
A user asked about BSOD events in ControlUp and shared that they have around 700 devices and 3-5 BSOD events per day. Another user suggested using the BSOD analysis script from the library to get more detailed information. After looking into the reported BSOD event, it was unclear if it was an actual BSOD or just a minidump. The user wanted this issue resolved and was willing to provide any necessary information. The power events tab in ControlUp can be checked to see if a machine rebooted during a reported BSOD event. The user was unsure if the machine had automatically rebooted when the user was not at their device.

Troubleshooting W365 CPC Integration and Visibility Issues
A group of ControlUp members discuss issues with the integration between W365 CPC and HDX. They note that EdgeDX does not detect brokering of a Cloud PC session, but the current configuration does show access to TURN and use of UDP. The group mentions that this may be due to the VDA configured on the device. There is also mention of potential confusion around which agent to use for the CPC Desktop, and a suggestion to pull a query to track the number of CPCs with a VDA installed and see what is reported. It is noted that there is interest from established enterprises to go this route.

Gathering logs through ControlUp Academy and PowerShell scripts
A discussion took place about using ControlUp Academy to gather logs via PowerShell scripts. Hosting a CDN in Azure was suggested as a solution. However, another user suggested creating a function instead that would prompt for the log location and then download it as a .txt or .log file. This would be helpful in situations where users don't have time to provide logs or are VIPs. The idea was also brought up to consolidate all log-related ideas into one to put pressure on product management. There was also a question about whether input can be prompted in EdgeDX or ControlUp for Desktops.
