This discussion focused on the difference between hive health and scout health, and the health metrics available in the scout details on the ControlUp portal. It was suggested that a "dead man's switch" be included to better help Scoutbee users with a metric to rule out hive-related issues. Hive availability can also be monitored to understand the reason for no test results in a certain period. The URL for the feature "Scout malfunction alert" is https://support.controlup.com/docs/alerts-for-stopped-scouts.

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.
