Citrix Monitoring Anyone?

Greetings All!

I am designing my Xymon setup, and in reading some of the material I've discovered that Xymon is capable of a limited view of Citrix, that limit being the ability to see only the number of users connected.  

Has anyone been able to also add the ability to see who is logged on, the date/time of their login as well?

Of course, any other info too would be great to have.

Thank you!

Hi,

Did you try deadcat 's script bb-citrix.pl ?

As you I could be very interested if someone had already done a citrix script.


Regards,

Fred.

It claims to be able to query a citrix cluster for published
applications; I need the added ability to see who is actually using
those published apps.  I believe the current Xymon capability, although not tested, allows me to see who is logged on, possibly for how long as well.  Does anyone else think knowing who is using what apps is helpful?

It would certainly be useful with the usual caveat that it must not take
much effort to generate. Monitoring tools should not overload the systems
they are monitoring!

Hi,

Did you try deadcat 's script bb-citrix.pl ?
I haven't tried it, although I do not believe I will need it since I
wish to use devmon to collect any data the Citrix server reports, via
SNMP of course.  My biggest hurdle right now is getting a Citrix
templates directory and necessary files for Citrix.
 
As you I could be very interested if someone had already done a citrix script.

I will of course post any updates to this list for all to read.

Sorry I answered this kind of late, but I was re-building our xymon server.
I monitor who is logged in the citrix servers using the who and bb-win and it list all the sessions, and the usernames. Since it is a simple list it will not cause resource eating which you want to avoid since Citrix will also monitor the resources.
Otherwise you could call the metric from the server since Citrix will add metrics to it. I have no idea how to do that however since I can't program at all :)
