Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Enabled |
Indicates whether this delivery group is available or not. |
|
This measure reports the value Yes if a delivery group is available, and reports No if it is not available.
The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| Yes |
1 |
| No |
0 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the availability of the delivery group. However, in the graph of this measure, the same will be represented using the numeric equivalents - 1 and 0 only.
The detailed diagnosis of this measure if enabled, lists the name of the delivery group, the description, the zone to which the group belongs, the desktop kind, whether Secure ICA is required, the number of sessions supported, whether the machine needs to be shut down after use, Powered on status of the machine if user is assigned, Powered on status of the machine during peak period if user is assigned, the published name of the machine, the delivery type, and the AppDisk name. |
| Maintenance_mode |
Indicates whether this delivery group is in a maintenance mode or not. |
|
Delivery groups are typically put on maintenance mode, if the connections to the machines within the group are to be temporarily stopped so that maintenance tasks are carried out.
XenDesktop has no control over delivery groups that are in maintenance mode. No user can log on to a machine in this state.
This measure reports the value Yes if a delivery group is in the maintenance mode, and reports No if it is not.
This measure reports the value Yes if a delivery group is in the maintenance mode, and reports No if it is not. The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| Yes |
1 |
| No |
0 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the maintenance status of the desktop group. However, in the graph of this measure, the same will represent the maintenance modes using the numeric equivalents - 1 and 0 only.
|
| Total_desktops |
Indicates the total number of machines in this group. |
Number |
Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure, if enabled, to know which machines are part of the group. |
| Available_desktops |
Indicates the number of machines in this delivery group that are available for a new user to connect to. |
Number |
Ideally, this value should be high. The detailed diagnosis of this measure if enabled, will reveal the complete details of the available desktops, such as, the desktop name, IP address, the desktop type, the catalog to which the desktop belongs, the hosting server on which the desktop operates, etc. |
| Used_desktops |
Indicates the number of machines in this group that are currently used by users. |
Number |
The detailed diagnosis of this measure provides complete details of the machines in use such as the machine name, the IP address, the delivery group and catalog to which it belongs, the operating system it runs on and the version of the OS, the hypervisor to which the machine is connected, the user accessing the session, the name of the DNS server with which it communicates, and the machine type - whether Private or Shared, the name of the controller, the location of the changes made by the user, the provisioning type of the machine, the applications that are published on the machine etc. |
| Unused_machines |
Indicates the number of machines in this group that are not logged in by any user within the time period specified against the Unused Machines In Days parameter. |
Number |
The value of this measure should be zero. A non-zero value of this measure denotes that one or more machines are not logged in by any user for more than the days specified against the Unused Machines In Days parameter. This indicates that the resources allocated to the machines are being wasted, which may lead to resource contention if the administrators do not investigate the issue immediately. |
| Used_desktops_pct |
Indicates the percentage of machines in this group that are currently in use by users. |
Percent |
Ideally, the value of this measure should be low. A value close to 100% indicates that the delivery group is about to run out of free machines. Owing to the absence of unused machines, users who have been assigned to this delivery group will be denied access to the group upon login.
Moreover, high usage of a delivery group may also drain the corresponding hosting infrastructure of its physical and virtual resources. |
| Disonnected_desktops |
Indicates the number of machines that are disconnected from this delivery group. |

Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure, if enabled, to know which machines are currently registered with the broker. |
| Unregistered_desktops |
Indicates the number of machines that are configured in this delivery group but are in an unregistered state with this controller. |
Number |
If a machine is in an unregistered state, it means that registration has not successfully completed for that machine. The value 0 is hence desired for this measure. In case the measure reports a non-zero value, you may want to enable the detailed diagnosis for this measure, so that you can view which machines in the group are unregistered. |
| Unregistered_desktop_pct |
Indicates the percentage of machines that are configured in this delivery group but are in an unregistered state with this controller. |
Percent |
Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero. A high value indicates that the machines encountered issues with registration and hence, the registration is incomplete on the machines. |
