A user asked for help locating "HZ Connection Server Active Connections" in the ControlUp desktop console to create a trigger, but it was not available. ControlUp support confirmed it as an internal property and suggested a workaround by creating a trigger on a different metric and then modifying the filter xml to replace it with "HzTotalConnections". The user successfully implemented this workaround. More details can be found at https://support.controlup.com/docs/vmware-horizon-integration-columns-grids-overview.

I am attempting to make a trigger with the data "HZ Connection Server Active Connections". This support document lists it as being underneath "Machines". https://support.controlup.com/docs/vmware-horizon-integration-columns-grids-overview
I am able to see it in the web console beneath "Connection Servers" but I’m not able to locate it in the desktop console to create a trigger. Any ideas on where this may be?
Hey @member
This metric is defined as an internal property – it’s interesting that we show this value in VDI & DaaS. We file a bug on this and let you know about the status
you can still create a trigger on this if you’re okay with a little bit of a workaround:
• create a trigger on a different (placeholder) metric
• export said trigger
• modify the filter xml
• replace the placeholder metric with HzTotalConnections
• import the trigger
Thanks @member, I just tried this method and the field filled in with the desired "friendly name" in the console so I think this is going to do the trick!
