PHD Virtual Monitor for Citrix XenDesktop
End silos of visibility in your Citrix XenDesktop environment so that if performance issues arise you can quickly and efficiently:
- Determine Causality
- Remediate Quickly
- Provide Objective Evidence
Get a Complete View of Your Infrastructure
The ability to respond and react to potential problems is only as effective as the information you receive on the health and status of your infrastructure. Citrix EdgeSight and Desktop Director provide session level application and system performance monitoring for Citrix XenApp and Citrix XenDesktop infrastructures. It also provides real time performance information for proactive problem solving and end-user experience optimization. While this information is important to the overall end-user experience, it is not a complete view into the physical and virtual infrastructure and that creates "gaps" in visibility that can impact the performance of the virtual desktop applications.
You can use PHD Virtual Monitor on a standalone basis, or utilize the integration with Edgesight or Desktop Director to create a single view for the entire infrastructure that will determine the root cause of performance issues and allow for quick remediation with historical data. This will prove the cause of the event whether it is the desktop, application, or the surrounding infrastructure.
Is XenApp or XenDesktop performing poorly?
End the finger pointing and answer this question quickly by determining root-cause using PHD Virtual Monitor. Though PHD Virtual Monitor can be used effectively on a stand-alone basis, it can also be combined with EdgeSight and Desktop Director to provide a comprehensive approach to monitoring the XenDesktop or XenApp environment. By monitoring the underlying infrastructure, in conjunction with the granular diagnostic data collected by EdgeSight or Desktop Director, administrators can now understand exactly where problems exist, leading to rapid isolation and remediation while reducing risk of service downtime and improving end-user experience.
