Citrix Services

ZenPacks.zenoss.PS.Citrix

"Citrix" is not a specific product or technology but more a "suite" of services or products. To make things more complex, some of these can be hosted on-prem or in Citrix Cloud.

The intent of this ZenPack is to provide a foundation to be able to monitor Citrix products and services. The ZenPack's current fucntionality is:

  • Base library to poll Citrix Cloud hosted services.

  • Poll events from Citrix Cloud WorkSpace (events will not clear).

  • Poll Cloud Metrics

  • Poll Citrix Workspace Events

  • Model/Monitor XenApp device and its components.

    • Utilizes access to Citrix Cloud API to collect modeling data and metrics for XenApp devices.

    • Supports modeling the following components:

      • Machines

      • Catalogs

      • Desktop Groups

      • StoreFrontServices

      • BrokerSites

    • Includes custom monitoring templates for modeled components.

    • For more information, see About Citrix DaaS REST APIs

It should be noted that there are other ZenPacks that have been written to monitor specific Citrix technologies:

Citrix XenApp (ZenPacks.zenoss.PS.XenApp)

Monitor onPrem XenApp via Windows PowerShell

Citrix ADC (ZenPacks.zenoss.NetScaler)

Monitor onPrem ADC/Netscaler via SNMP
