Measures reported by HrznThinRepoTest

ThinApp is an application virtualization tool that packages virtual applications into executable files and allows distribution of the applications across the virtual environment. The ThinApp packages reside on a ThinApp repository in a network share. This way, administration and sharing of the applications across the virtual environment become easier. As an administrator, you can copy a full ThinApp package from the repository to the virtual desktop. You can also place a shortcut on the virtual desktop that points to the ThinApp package on the repository. It is therefore imperative that availability of the repository is critical to access the applications reside in it. If the repository is found to be inaccessible due to network connectivity failure between the View Connection server and the repository, the applications reside in the repository also become unavailable to users. This in turn impacts the user experience and degrade the performance of the View Connection server. To prevent such eventualities, you should continuously monitor the availability of the ThinApp repositories. The HrznThinRepoTest test helps you in this regard!

This test auto-discovers all the ThinApp repositories that are registered with the the VMWare Horizon View Connection server and reports availability of each ThinApp repository.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each ThinApp repository that is registered with the the VMWare Horizon View Connection server.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Availability Indicates whether/not the this repository is available. Percent A value of 100 indicates that this repository is available. The value 0 indicates that the repository is not available

The detailed diagnosis of the measure appears only if the value of this measure is 0. The detailed diagnosis reveals the network path of ThinApp repository which is not available.
