Michael,
Please take a look at a product from Lakeside Software called SysTrack.
www.lakesidesoftware.com
Download the evaluation copy and give it a spin. With a little practice,
you will be able to answer virtually any question you may have (and many you
never thought of!) regarding your Citrix MF servers. It is a great product
and the staff at Lakeside will be happy to assist you with installation and
configuration. They want to make sure you have it installed and functioning
smoothly.
If you have further questions about the product, please contact Carrie
Peiffer (mailto://carrie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) and she will get answers for
you. Carrie has been very helpful in assisting me get the answers I needed
during my evaluation period.
I am very impressed with the product and am in the acquisition process now.
I'm sure you'll be impressed too. I manage a small farm of 14 servers
supporting 300+ users.
Best of luck,
Rob

I asked this question before but I am going to ask it in a different way
this time.
What is the best way to measure performance on a Citrix server? I have
complaints from users stating their session is slow, but I have to find a
way to answer the following questions:
1. 'How slow is slow?'
2. 'Is it due to the load on the servers?'
3. 'How do we know it is not the network?'
I have been directed to the Citrix Server test kit but this looks like it is
only testing performance of hardware performing specific scripts by a
certain number of users.
What about measuring what is occurring right now on my servers? And maybe
this is a dumb question but if performance monitor is the answer what
counters should I be looking at for this information? Is performance
monitor the best tool at measuring these things?

know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest
constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the
real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather
