    Looking for Virtual desktop infrastructure monitoring tool

    Is anyone aware of any good monitoring tools for View or VDI in general that are free? We don't have a budget for monitoring software, but I'd like to be able to use something - if possible.

    Few to try out:
    • vFoglight was suggested to us by more than a few consultants and is very superior.
    • Cacti is an open source monitoring software that has VM and ESX monitoring capabilities
    • SolarWinds also has a few apps that do this nevertheless they are fairly luxurious.

    If you are monitoring for recital than those will work but with no funds I'm not convinced he can have enough money Foglight or Solarwinds. If you verify out . the characteristically has a inventory of free of charge tools. a number of of these may be capable to assist monitor performance.

    You be able to write a number of sql scripts to check event database because there is no tool to monitor view health.

    Re: Looking for Virtual desktop infrastructure monitoring tool

    Here’s something that we’ve started seeing more and more. The folks deploying virtual desktop architectures want to get visibility into their VDI deployments. Often, they have to rely on their enterprise monitoring teams for the monitoring software, alerts, and reports.

    For years, enterprise monitoring teams have been using one of the Big-4 solutions to monitor OS metrics – CPU, memory, disk, etc. Now, they look at VDI in the same way – they provide the VDI team with CPU, memory, disk metrics!

    What the VDI team wants is metrics specific to the service they are delivering – is the vCenter server up? How many users are connected? is any of the users seeing a high response time? Is any user running an application that is consuming a lot of CPU or memory? All of these are VDI-specific metrics.

    Nice to hear that you like it I'm using it for a few months now (full version) and it's a great tool for making management reports especially when you need more budget for additional resources
