Health Checks for VMware UAGs Using Horizon and UAG APIs within ControlUp
A user asked for suggestions on what metrics to assess in a project to do better health checks on VMware UAGs using Horizon and UAG APIs. Ideas include alerting when a connection server exceeds a threshold, and when services are not in a running state, as well as low available memory and high CPU. These metrics would also be desirable to display in ControlUp's Solve and Console. Discussions also included Dennis' idea to bring the data to Edge DX and a feature request for UAG data.

Does ControlUp keep a log of user input delay anywhere, or is it merely a realtime thing?
This discussion addressed whether ControlUP keeps a log of user input delay. It was suggested to use the Monitor PS cmdlets Export-CUQuery to query the Sessions table and Field UserInputDelay. An example was given on how to refresh this table every two seconds for a duration of 200 seconds using Invoke-CUQuery and Export-Csv.

How to remotely query the registry of machine using a ControlUp Script Action?
It is possible to query the registry of a machine using a Script action, however the user was getting 'access denied' errors. If the computer runs the CU agent, it might be easier to run the script there instead of remotely. It was suggested that PS remote needs to be enabled for Invoke-Commands. 8.8 release will allow users to see the value for VHDLocations as a column in console and Solve as part of the FSLogix integration.

Is There a Limitation on Filters in ControlUp Solve?
The user asked if the filters were limited to 5, and it was suggested that triggers could be used to watch 10 users in real-time. Another response offered an alternative, recommending using the search feature with | in between the names in the console. It appears that there is no known limitation here.

Troubleshooting a Trigger to Delete Profiles in ControlUp
A user was trying to set up a trigger that would delete profiles older than one day if disk space drops below 10%, but the trigger wouldn't run. It turned out that it needed to be set up to delete at an exact threshold (e.g., 10%), and not a range (e.g., 9% to 11%). The user enabled an email alert to confirm the CU was picking up the trigger, and adjusted the settings so it would run below their personal threshold.

Troubleshooting Error “File… is not digitally signed… see about_Exectin_Policies…” in ControlUp
The user was running an Analyze Logon Duration script against two different VDI environments but was receiving an error message relating to the execution policy not being set correctly with the W2K12 PVS. Modifying the GPO was explored but it was ultimately discovered that the script was incorrectly signed because of a space being added at the end of the file. Suggestions were made to double-check scripts if modified by colleagues. ControlUp SBAs and an update to W2K19 were also mentioned.
