A user suggested creating a script to generate log bundles with logs from ControlUp infrastructure servers such as SBA, COP, IOP, etc. An example of such a script was AppSense-Support.vbs and this was used to successfully retrieve the logs. The ControlUp Script Library includes a script (https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/deploy-log4net-for-controlup-processes/) for generating log bundles for Cloud components, although it is more complicated to do so for on-prem components due to the large size of the logs.

How to Configure CVAD Maintenance Mode from a CVAD Integration in a ControlUp Trigger
A user asked about using the CVAD Maintenance Mode from an integration in a trigger. The account was using shared credentials and the Monitor/Data Source connection seemed ok. It was suggested that the user use an Advanced Trigger and select the "Include newly discovered devices" option and use the "Disable CVAD machine maintenance mode" script action to enable the machine. The user was also recommended to check out the Trigger Packs article. The link for the Disable CVAD machine maintenance mode is https://github.com/controlup/script-library/tree/master/Disable%20CVAD%20machine%20maintenance%20mode and the Trigger Packs article is found at https://support.controlup.com/docs/trigger-packs.

How to Send Messages Based on FSLogix Triggers
A user wanted to send a message to the user whose disk had low profile space using an FSLogix trigger, but the script action for this couldn't be used. Oliver suggested creating a trigger for disk space and then using a script follow-up action to find the user GUID/key, followed by a send message action. He also suggested using Powershell to get the session ID of the user and using the MSG.exe native functionality to send a message to a specific session, if multiple users were using the same machine. Dennis suggested adding a filter for FSLogix Disk Type to the Trigger filter editor, and Nicholas linked a script that is helpful for single session setup. The roadmap also includes FSLogix disks per user.

How to Prompt Users to Reboot with ControlUp Script Actions
In order to have a script take action on a workstation and prompt the active user to reboot, various options were discussed, such as Toast Framework, Msg.exe, and Executables available in Edge DX. Edge DX has a local Executable to send customizable messages without the need of API, which can be used for the task. More information about Edge DX and Invoke-CUAction can be found in the ControlUp Support website (https://support.controlup.com/docs/invoke-cuaction).
