The Importance of Folder Structure for ControlUp Reporting Data
The ControlUp team discusses a recent folder structure change that has resulted in reporting data being split between the old and new directory. It is not possible to move the older data to the new location and there is no way to hide it from other users. The historic data will eventually drop off after a year and will only show under the year selection. Some users have found that the folder structure greatly affects their stress levels, alerts, automation, and reports. It is advised to make changes to the folder structure only for significant reasons as it can still be adjusted for minor projects without impacting the main structure of the historical data.

Troubleshooting ControlUp Advanced Session Triggers
A user is looking for a way to have a Citrix virtual machine with ControlUp Agent detect if the launching machine does not have ControlUp Remote DX installed. They set up an Advanced Session Trigger with a filter for the Remote DX version, but it did not trigger as expected. Others suggest using the User Logged On trigger instead and making sure all machines are on the latest version of Remote DX. One user is testing this and will update later. However, there may be an issue with the Advanced Session Trigger not recognizing the Account Name and may need to be addressed with ControlUp support.
