Citrix XenDesktop FlowChart for login process


1.     The user device submits credentials to the Web Interface site.
2.     Web Interface passes the user credentials to the controller.
3.     Controller verifies user authorization by performing a Microsoft Active Directory query with the end user’s credentials.
4.     Controller queries the site database for the end user’s assigned desktop groups, named instance uses ports 1434 and 1433.
5.     Using the desktop group obtained from the database, controller queries the hypervisor about the status of desktops within that group.
6.     Controller identifies to Web Interface the desktop it assigned for this particular session.
7.     Web Interface sends an ICA file to the online plug-in, which points to the virtual desktop identified by the hypervisor.
8.     Online plug-in establishes an ICA connection to the specific virtual desktop that was allocated by the controller for this session.
9.     Virtual Desktop Agent verifies the license file with the controller.
10.   Controller queries Citrix license server to verify that the end user has a valid ticket.
11.   Controller passes session policies to the Virtual Desktop Agent (VDA), which then applies those policies to the virtual desktop.
12.   Online plug-in displays the virtual desktop to the end user.
13.   Administrator and helpdesk personnel use Desktop Director and Studio tools to manage the desktops from the management server

HP 3PAR storage Commands to troubleshoot performance issues

The quick reference guide below will help diagnose and rule out some common issues experienced in the 3PAR arrays.  CLI COMMAND – “STATVLUN” measures the round trip time of an IO as seen by the system. Running STATVLUN in the following order should lead to the resolution of a few performance issues: 1)      “statvlun –ni”   – The STATVLUN command without any switches will show the round trip time of IO on each path for exported Virtual Volumes. This is helpful to determine if there is a multipathing issue. The “-ni” flag will eliminate any inactive volumes. 2)      “statvlun –vvsum –ni –rw”   This will show you the round trip time of the IO to each volume with the paths condensed for consolidated reporting.  This is great to see an overall picture of what is going on The “-rw” flag will break the IO down into Reads & Writes. 3)      “statvlun –hostsum –ni –rw”   The output of this command will show you the round trip time of the IO organized to the host le
