How to fix messed up one of the data indexes, now opens to grey screen with no records
To solve the issue of a grey screen when trying to access a custom data index, it is suggested to delete the whole index and build a new Object with all separate items. The object should include `'NIC Name'` and `'ipconfig interfacealias='` properties, and have to work around `IPv4Address` and `DNSServer` which are arrays. Deleting the index will allow the agent to send data again, and regenerate the index.

After upgrading Citrix VDA to 2203CU2 have noticed the HDX Latency to be erroneous and erratic?
Users reported incorrect HDX Latency and Round Trip Time (RTT) values in Citrix VDA versions 2112 and earlier. The issue can be fixed by disabling the HDX Adaptive Scaling feature in the VDA registry (CVADHELP-19781). Changing the CU setting to current value and disabling Remote DX latency may also help. More information can be found in the Citrix documentation at https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/2203-ltsr/whats-new/cumulative-update-1/fixed-issues.html.
