Monitoring the Physical Desktop Group
Log into the eG monitoring interface for viewing the current state of the managed Physical Desktop Group component and the performance statistics it reports.
In the eG monitoring console, eG Enterprise uses a specialized Physical Desktop Group monitoring model to represent the real-time state of the physical desktops.
Figure 1 : Layer model of the Physical Desktop Group component
The tests mapped to these layers report metrics that have been collected from those VM agents that have been configured to monitor the same Physical Desktop Group component - i.e., that have been configured with the same Physical Desktop Group component nick name.
These tests track user logins and logouts on the physical desktops, monitor user activities, and report on the resource impact of those activities on the internal health of that desktop. Using the measures reported by these tests, administrators can find quick and accurate answers to the following performance queries:
-
Which users are logged on and when did each user login?
-
How much CPU, memory, GPU, and network resources is each desktop taking?
-
What is the typical duration of a user session?
-
Who has the peak usage times?
-
What applications are running on each desktop? Which applications are the top CPU/memory consumers on the desktop?
-
Did any application take too long to launch on the desktop?
-
Did any browser excessively consume the CPU/memory resources?
-
