ControlUP Monitoring: Combining CVAD Logon Times with FSLogix Integration without UPM? Supported Configuration?

Posted on

A user asked about running FSLogix and UPM together without issues. It was suggested to not use Director for logon times as ControlUp is more accurate and to focus on the Windows logon time. It was also recommended to use the logon duration analysis script provided by ControlUp and establish a baseline. Additionally, FSLogix integration interrogates a remote file share every 5 minutes and does not provide free space info, other than that it can be requested via Solve UserVoice.

Error: “Install .NET FW 4.8 on the target machine” Upgrading ControlUp Monitors

Posted on

A user was trying to upgrade ControlUp Monitors from 8.7.0.579 but kept getting a message to install .NET FW 4.8 on the target machine. This is a known issue which is fixed either by patching or uninstalling a patch (specifically ms patch kb5011048). Rolling back the upgrade was the current solution, but the user had the current version 4.8 (not 4.8.1) and a clean install worked. The KB article for this issue is: Error when deploying ControlUp Monitor: Install .NET FW 4.8 on the target machine.

Will Data sources fail over to a different Site if all ControlUp Monitors in that site are down?

Posted on

A user asked about a recent feature where data sources will failover to a different site if all monitors in that site are down. It turns out that this is not a feature, but the team is working on data aggregation between sites instead. A sizing complication may come with this feature, but it would also allow for High Availability, as customers often mistake sites for HA as opposed to a load balancer between monitors.

Troubleshooting a Trigger to Delete Profiles in ControlUp

Posted on

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.

How to: Service Account for a Monitor in ControlUp

Posted on

A user asked about setting a service account for a Monitor - the user had already created the shared credential with the necessary permissions. The user was unsure if the Monitor needed an additional service account when performing actions requiring the 'Allow Log on as a Service' permission. It was clarified that the shared credential could be set as the Monitor service account / domain identity through the ControlUp Console. The user found the article 'User Permissions in ControlUp' (https://support.controlup.com/docs/user-permissions-in-controlup) helpful.
