Measures reported by WVDOsHandleTest

This test monitors and tracks the handles opened by processes running in the chosen Azure Virtual Desktop.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the chosen User/Desktop.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Handles_usage_in_system Indicates the number of handles opened by various processes running in a target Azure virtual desktop in the last measurement period. Number Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to determine the top-10 processes in terms of number of handles opened. This information brings to light those processes with too many open handles. By closely tracking the handle usage of these processes over time, you can identify potential handle leaks.
Handle_growth_above_threshold Indicates the number of processes that have opened the handles on or above the value defined in the input parameter - HANDLES GROWTH LIMIT. Number Using the detailed diagnosis of this measure, you can accurately isolate the process(es) that has opened more handles than the permitted limit.

A high value of this measure indicates that too many processes are opening handles excessively. You might want to closely observe the handle usage of these processes over time to figure out whether the spike in usage is sporadic or consistent. A consistent increase in handle usage could indicate a handle leak.
