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.

Missing “Client Device Score” icon in ControlUp Solve?
Members discussed the issue of not seeing Client Device Score in ControlUp Solve, and why metrics like Client Wi-Fi Signal, Lan Latency, Total Session Latency, and Internet Latency indicate the score.

How to setup a ControlUp Trigger to alert if our cloud connectors lose connectivity?
The user was unsure if "0" meant "not connected" or "1" meant "connected" when setting up a trigger for cloud connectors in the ControlUp platform.
