A user wanted to send a message to the user whose disk had low profile space using an FSLogix trigger, but the script action for this couldn't be used. Oliver suggested creating a trigger for disk space and then using a script follow-up action to find the user GUID/key, followed by a send message action. He also suggested using Powershell to get the session ID of the user and using the MSG.exe native functionality to send a message to a specific session, if multiple users were using the same machine. Dennis suggested adding a filter for FSLogix Disk Type to the Trigger filter editor, and Nicholas linked a script that is helpful for single session setup. The roadmap also includes FSLogix disks per user.

Why does ‘client NIC speed’ in Demote DX fluctuate in FSLogix support in ControlUp 8.8?
A user queried how the value 'Client NIC Speed' is calculated in ControlUp 8.8, where they use FSLogix metrics. This value is determined based on the data rate of the NIC which is expressed in bits or bytes per second, and can be accessed through the Device Manager, Command Line, or third-party software. @member then shared a Slack blog post introducing Slack GPT AI, which another user noted looked cool, and offered to open a 'test' channel for experimentation with the technology.

Don’t see all the FSLogix Metrics after upgrading to ControlUp 8.8
The user updated to ControlUp 8.8 but did not see all the FSLogix Metrics in Solve and Real-Time Console. To fix this issue, the latest FSLogix version needs to be installed and the session needs to be logged off/on, as suggested by the Support team at https://support.controlup.com/docs/getting-started-with-fslogix-in-controlup. Differential disks may be the reason for the columns for Mount Time and Path being shown as N/A or blank.

ControlUP Monitoring: Combining CVAD Logon Times with FSLogix Integration without UPM? Supported Configuration?
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. Links provided: https://www.controlup.com/resources/blog/entry/analyzing-logon-duration-just-got-better/, https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/enable-requirements-for-logon-duration-analysis/.

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.
