Overview

The all-in-one Citrix DaaS & Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops extensions allows you to monitor your Citrix environments.

You can choose to have a holistic view of your Citrix site, monitor individual Virtual Delivery Agent (Citrix VDA) equipped machines or both.

The extension can be deployed from an OneAgent or an ActiveGate.

Use cases

  • This extension has multiple options to monitor your Citrix DaaS & Virtual Apps and Desktops environment depending on if your deployment, as well as the data you are looking to monitor.
  • As mentioned in the getting started section (see this section for more details on the deployment options), you can deploy this extension either locally (using OneAgent), or remotely (using ActiveGate).
  • More specifically, there are multiple deployment methods depending on your needs:
    • Monitor individual user sessions by monitoring Citrix VDAs.
    • Monitor your entire Citrix environment using the Citrix Powershell SDK.
    • Monitor your Citrix Environment using the Citrix Rest API.
    • In a Managed environment, connect to a local Delivery Controller via the Rest API.

Compatibility information

  • To use the REST API option on On-premise/Managed , the minimum required version is Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 2209.
