Measures reported by XenCtrlVDTest

This test reports the status of the virtual desktops managed by the monitored DDC.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Is_virtual_desktop_enabled Indicates whether this virtual desktop is currently enabled/disabled.   While the value Yes indicates that the virtual desktop is enabled, the value No indicates that it is currently disabled.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating whether a virtual desktop is enabled/disabled. However, the graph of this measure will represent states using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.

Is_user_connected Indicates whether any user is currently connected to this desktop or not.   While the value Yes indicates that a user is connected to the virtual desktop, the value No indicates that no user is currently connected to the desktop.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating whether a user is connected to the virtual desktop or not. However, the graph of this measure will represent the user connection states using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.

Detailed diagnosis will be available for this measure only if its value is Yes - i.e., only if at least one user is connected to the virtual desktop. In this case, you can use the detailed diagnosis to figure out who the user is.

Is_virtual_desktop_available Indicates whether this virtual desktop is currently available or not.   While the value Yes indicates that the virtual desktop is available, the value No indicates that the virtual desktop is not available.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating the availability of a virtual desktop. However, the graph of this measure will represent desktop availability using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.

Is_powered_on Indicates whether this virtual desktop is currently powered on or not.   While the value Yes indicates that the desktop is powered on, the value No indicates that the desktop is currently powered off.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating whether a desktop is powered on/off. However, the graph of this measure will represent the powered on state using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.

Is_maintenance_enabled Indicates whether this virtual desktop is currently under maintenance.   If you want to temporarily stop connections to a desktop so that maintenance tasks can be carried out, you can put the desktop into maintenance mode. While the value Yes indicates that the desktop is in maintenance mode, the value No indicates that the desktop is not in maintenance mode.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating whether/not a desktop is in the maintenance mode. However, the graph of this measure will represent the maintenance mode using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.

Is_virtual_desktop_unknown Indicates whether this virtual desktop is currently in the ‘Unknown’ powerstate.   Note that this measure will appear only if the ONLY POWERED ON VMS flag is set to ‘No’.

While the value Yes for this measure indicates that the desktop is currently in an unknown powerstate, the value No indicates that the desktop is currently in a powered on/off state only.

The numeric values that correspond to the Yes/No states above are as follows:

State Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating whether/not a desktop is in unknown powerstate. However, the graph of this measure will represent the state using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 1 and 0 only.
