Unit |
Interpretation |
| Unknown_session_count |
The number
of current sessions that are in an Unknown state |
Number
|
|
| Active_session_count |
The number
of active sessions currently on the Citrix farm |
Number
|
This
measure gives an idea of the farm workload in terms of active
sessions. Tracking the number of active sessions with time, a Citrix
administrator can obtain information that can help him/her plan the
capacity of their Citrix farm. The detailed diagnosis
capability, if enabled, lists the active and inactive sessions on the
Citrix farm. |
| Connected_session_count |
The current number of sessions that are connected, but no user has logged on to the farm |
Number |
A consistent increase in the value of this measure could indicate that users are having trouble logging in. Further investigation may hence be required. |
| Connecting_session_count |
The number of sessions that are in the process of connecting |
Number |
A very high value for this measure indicates a problem with the session or connection. |
| Shadow_session_count |
The number of sessions that are remotely controlling other sessions |
Number |
A non-zero value for this measure indicates the existence of shadow sessions that are allowed to view and control the user activity on another session. Such sessions help in troubleshooting/resolving problems with other sessions under their control. |
| Disconnect_session_count |
The number of sessions from which users have disconnected, but which are still active and can be reconnected |
Number |
Too many disconnected sessions running indefinitely on a Citrix server cause excessive consumption of the server resources. To avoid this, a session limit is typically configured for disconnected sessions on the Citrix server. When a session limit is reached for a disconnected session, the session ends, which permanently deletes it from the server. |
| Idle_session_count |
The number of sessions which are waiting for a connection |
Number |
Ideally this value should be low An unusually high value could indicate a connection bottleneck. |
| Listen_session_count |
The current number of sessions that are ready to accept connections |
Number |
|
| Reset_session_count |
The current number of sessions, the states of which were reset while in progress |
Number |
|
| Down_session_count |
The current number of sessions that could not be initialized or terminated |
Number |
Ideally, the value of this measure should be 0. |
| Init_session_count |
The current number of sessions that are initializing |
Number |
A very high value for this measure could indicate that too many sessions are currently experiencing initialization problems. |
| Stale_session_count |
The current number of sessions that are stale |
Number |
