BSOD Events in ControlUp and How to Investigate Them
A user asked about BSOD events in ControlUp and shared that they have around 700 devices and 3-5 BSOD events per day.

The group mentions that this may be due to the VDA configured on the device. There is also mention of potential confusion around which agent to use for the CPC Desktop, and a suggestion to pull a query to track the number of CPCs with a VDA installed and see what is reported.
