How do I best use this program

Open JoBu-NY opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

I have been running into serious GPU issues running in a CITRIX XenApp Farm. One of the forums I was in recommended your program for troubleshooting. I have the program but I can't find any good documentation for running it well or what some of the output actually means.

Can you help me out with this?

Thanks

For each XenApp host with an NVIDIA GPU, you could publish GPUProfiler to monitor the total XenApp host utilization. I have done so in the past.

The output is simply the resource utilization of the following resources over time:

  1. CPU
  2. RAM
  3. GPU
  4. Framebuffer
  5. Video Encode Engine
  6. Video Decode Engine

Understanding which resource is oversubscribed should be your first place to investigate how to resolve a resource deficiency. To resolve, you need to increase the resource or reduce the resource availability (i.e. number of allowed users/XenApp host)

Alternatively, using Citrix Director would provide additional details that could give you better insight. https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2017/06/01/monitoring-of-nvidia-gpus-in-citrix-director/
