How to set a ControlUp Trigger with multiple schedules?
Users discussed finding a clean way to set a trigger with multiple schedules for monitoring Horizon services. It was suggested to use a PowerShell script with IF logic for this. To prevent getting emails when the server closes for patching, a maintenance window could be set, with a different action taken if the service is down for more than 30 minutes. ControlUp's Realtime DX can be used to set a custom schedule. An example script was provided, which requires the user to edit it with the event IDs they want to monitor for and any services to be excluded. This thread can be added to the FAQ page.

Experiencing Poor Performance in Remote DX on VMs?
Users have experienced poor performance when using ControlUp Remote DX on virtual machines, and wondered if others have had similar issues. It was suggested that they try RDP on a physical machine to test the issue, and to use LDAP or SAML with Solve instead of VNCing through a jump-box. As a workaround, users can minimize their VM for the app they need, which is a little inconvenient, but can make their lives easier.

Missing the “Reconnect ” Option for RDP sessions in ControlUp RealTime DX
The discussion focused on the lack of a "reconnect" option in RealTime DX for managing Remote Desktop sessions when resolution changes occur. The team is currently exploring "Solve Actions" as an option, with additional Edge DX capability in the future. Customers are using Devolutions RDM and its "rdp file association" as a workaround for now. ControlUp RDX stands out as it allows for various credential sets and no additional tooling is needed. Reconnect option can be found when right-clicking on the machine instead of the tab. A tabbed RDP manager using the RealTime Console has many benefits, such as copy/paste of clipboard and files.
