Citrix CVAD essentials
Managing VDI environments is complex and demands ongoing monitoring to catch performance, connectivity, and resource issues. Limited visibility can hide critical problems, delaying fixes and reducing end-user productivity.
Problem
Monitoring Citrix virtual machines and infrastructure can be time-consuming and fragmented, making it hard to identify performance issues, stale VMs, or registration failures that affect user experience. Stopped processes or infrastructure issues can cause major disruptions, and fixing VDI problems often requires specialist teams or admin tools.
Solution
Citrix monitoring dashboards and preconfigured VDI monitors give a centralized view of your virtual and infrastructure environments. They let you track hypervisor performance, VM status, reboot health, VDA registration, and the state of delivery controllers, license servers, and StoreFront servers.
Built-in monitors help detect and resolve issues faster, while remediation actions enable session host restarts, GPO updates, and termination of unresponsive processes.
