Measures reported by CtxCdBrokerTest

Controllers are server machines running instances of the delivery controller service. The delivery controller service is responsible for the delivery controllering of user sessions to desktops or applications, and for power management of the underlying machines. An operational site must contain at least one Controller.

This test auto-discovers the Citrix Cloud Delivery Controllers configured within a site, and reports the current status of each controller and the count of machines registered with every controller.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each delivery controller operating in the Citrix cloud.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

  • On - Indicates that the delivery controller is powered-on, but not fully operational

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned States while indicating the current state of a delivery controller. However, the graph of this measure will represent states using the corresponding numeric equivalents - i.e., 1 to 4.

The detailed diagnosis of this measure reveals when the controller was last accessed, when it was last started, the zone to which the controller belongs, and also displays the site services that were active on the controller during its last access.
Registered_desktops Indicates the number of machines that are currently registered with this delivery controller. Number
