Issue with Page Refresh on Secure DX

Posted on January 20, 2025

Understanding Data Caching in ControlUp

Posted on March 4, 2024

The discussion revolved around the caching of data from the agents to the monitor during network outages. It was confirmed that the monitor caches data for 24 hours in C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\ControlUp\CacheActivity and uploads it once the connection is restored. It was also mentioned that the agent does not have caching capabilities, only the monitor does. The potential impact of agent-level caching on user experience in VDI/RDSH environments was also brought up. This topic is not specific to v9 of ControlUp.

Posted on February 11, 2024
