Investigating Unreachable ControlUp Agent VMs
This user asked for advice on the issue of VM's becoming unreachable due to Horizon Agent issues, experiencing freezing applications and an inability to console or access the machine once it has reached this state. Causes such as port exhaustion and DNS issues were discussed, as well as suggestions on how to access the system and application log files, and to generate an OS crash dump. It was also suggested to review reassess the configuration and consult other Horizon tech communities. ControlUp historical data and the support article https://support.controlup.com/ docs/controlup-agent-temporary-mode-and-how-to-change-it?highlight=IsTemporary#what-is-the-fix-for-this-problem were also included.

Storage Trends in ControlUp
A user asked for trends regarding storage in ControlUp. It is possible to view IO stats, though missing capacity information is not available yet. However, ControlUp will add trends as reference for the statistics reports in the Streaming project, including capacity and free space information. There will also be Disk entity reports with relevant information and recommendations. A session can be coordinated to discuss the plan.

Troubleshooting General VDI Slowness with Multiple Screens
A user asked for help in finding the source of general slowness in a VMware environment with 4-6 screens, no GPUs, and W10 Kiosks. ControlUp is being used to identify the bottleneck but CPU and RAM are not the source. GPU memory was discussed as a possible bottleneck, and it was suggested to check settings like Display memory limit, CPU metrics, network connectivity and RTT times, plus the fact that the EDT protocol can help. The user later reported that their lobbying for GPUs paid off, and they are getting 12 servers with 2xAmpere A16 GPUs.

How to Track Disk Space Trend Analysis in ControlUp Real-Time DX?
A user asked if there was a way to track disk space trend analysis. The feature was well-received and the team suggested adding a “free disk space” chart to their Machine Trends report. They also discussed adding it to the Sizing Recommendations report, since the Streaming Project will impact the current metrics they were planning to include. The Streaming Demo was held recently and it was decided that the project would fit well with existing historical PVS & GPU metrics.
