Does the Bandwidth Limit metric come from the Citrix EDT logic?
A question was asked about the Bandwidth Limit metric from the Citrix EDT logic - this is estimated by sending two packets of known size and measuring the time it takes to transmit them. The metric is measured in Mbps and it should not be lower than 1 or 2 Mbps as Citrix is nimble in its bandwidth consumption. Thanks to @member for clarifying.

Why Separate Monitors and Data Collectors for ControlUp?
It is important to separate Monitors from Data Collectors in order to avoid competing for resources as well as breaking up extensions into chunks. Many companies opt for 8 Data Collectors, while some run Data Collector on Monitor servers if there is no sizing issue. Further resources concerning Data Collectors can be found at ControlUp's blog article and KB page (https://www.controlup.com/resources/blog/entry/what-is-a-data-collector-and-why-does-it-matter, https://support.controlup.com/docs/controlup-data-collector).

How to get the IGEL Device Name vs. the MAC Address with ControlUp Remote DX?
The user asked about how the naming of an IGEL thin client works, as it appears in the COP and in scripts. The network name had not been set, so it appeared differently in UMS and COP, and the scripts gave an error. By setting the Network Name, it should appear consistently across the platform. For more information, please see https://kb.igel.com/endpointmgmt-6.08/en/renaming-igel-os-devices-47711460.html.

Can I remove\organize\curate the list of ControlUp Script Actions in the right-click context menu?
The user asked about curating the right-click action list in ControlUp - by using a prefix with the company and script name, the scripts can be filtered and found more easily in the Console. Renaming a community script with a prefix may orphan it from future updates. Virtual Expert rules can also be used to organize the columns. The user also mentioned using Site Monitor on a trigger to dump a CSV onto a share.

After upgrading Citrix VDA to 2203CU2 have noticed the HDX Latency to be erroneous and erratic?
Users reported incorrect HDX Latency and Round Trip Time (RTT) values in Citrix VDA versions 2112 and earlier. The issue can be fixed by disabling the HDX Adaptive Scaling feature in the VDA registry (CVADHELP-19781). Changing the CU setting to current value and disabling Remote DX latency may also help. More information can be found in the Citrix documentation at https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/2203-ltsr/whats-new/cumulative-update-1/fixed-issues.html.
