Citrix VDI Overview Dashboard and Device Views

The Citrix VDI Overview dashboard provides performance and status information on the Citrix VDI Management Servers and Desktops. Citrix Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is the market leading technology for providing virtualized desktops using Hypervisor technologies. Currently, CA Performance Management supports VMware vSphere Hypervisors. From the Overview page, you can drill down to device-level views to isolate a problem.

Note: The CPU and Memory reports available in both the Citrix VDI Overview dashboard and the Citrix VDI Server Overview dashboard can display metrics that are not explicit to the Citrix VDI metric family. To avoid this problem, we recommend that you edit the view and save its context to a particular group to ensure the dashboard only reports on Citrix VDI controllers.

Engineers can use this information to troubleshoot problems. Capacity planners can use this information to see which services are overloaded and plan for more VDI servers.

Desktop information provided includes:
