Summary

Monitors the percentage of available machines in Server OS delivery group.

Available servers are machines that are running, registered, and having Load Evaluator Index less than 100%.

By default, percentage of available machines in delivery group is calculated as:

number of available machines / (all machines – machines in maintenance) * 100

In case you want machines in Citrix maintenance mode to be counted in total delivery group capacity then override "Include Maintenance Machines In Capacity" parameter to true and then calculation is:

number of available machines / (all machines) * 100

For example, if there are 3 machines in delivery group and one of them is in maintenance mode while other two are not fully loaded, by default, availability would be 100%. However, if "Include Maintenance Machines In Capacity" would be set to true then availability would be 66%.

No alert is generated if delivery group is in Citrix maintenance mode or empty.

Configuration

The following configuration parameters are customizable:

Interval Seconds

The monitoring period (the default interval is set to 300 seconds).

Sync Time

Time at which to start time interval (not set by default).

Warning Threshold
