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.

A user asked about putting in place a sync between AD and ControlUp and wondered what the folderpath attribute should look like in their case. The universal sync script is the replacement for the CVAD script, and should be used for EUC. It was suggested to add an introductory section comparing the AD Sync and EUC Sync to the documentation, which the team is now doing.

How to Easily Keep Track of View in ControlUp Solve?
A user was having difficulty keeping track of their views when moving between locations in Solve.

Chris commented to review the notes given by a member and Dennis updated that this behavior is not intuitive and is highly prioritized.
