Free Citrix Platform Monitoring Tool – Licensing, XenServer, StoreFront and NetScaler…so far

February 27, 2017

A while ago I wrote some monitoring software to get a high level view of whats happening on your Citrix XenApp 6.5 Estate. Details of this can be found here:

XenApp 6.5 Monitoring Tool

I have had loads of requests to update this to support XenDesktop 7.x and to be honest its something I have wanted to do for quite some time but have just not got round to it. This post will offer the first cut in my new monitoring “dashboard”

Just to be clear, this is NOT meant to replace existing monitoring software from vendors like ControlUp etc as the monitoring and specific detail around the Citrix stack they offer is far beyond what I am trying to achieve with this. It IS however meant to be a supplementary piece of monitoring that can be run and used for free and displayed without a login on a large monitoring wallboard or something like that.

The idea is to give you a high level snapshot of the estate when you walk into your workplace.
