Hi All,

The next meeting of the North East Ohio Citrix Users' Group will be Monday, 
November 8th, at 4:45 PM-6:45PM, at the Cuyahoga County Public Library 
Administration building (2111 Snow Rd Parma, Ohio).  We have two topics that 
should be of importance and interest to you all.

Application Service Management using Compuware's Vantage Technology 
If you answer "No" to any of these questions or don't know the answers, you'll 
want to attend the November Citrix Users Group Meeting and see a "Live Demo". 
You'll see how you change the "No" to a "Yes" and learn how you can feel more 
at ease that you're well informed about your Citrix environment from Jenai 
Makulinski, Manager for Vantage Products, and Greg Specht, Senior Systems 
Engineer at Compuware. 


 

Ø      Do you have a global view of the availability and performance of the 
entire Citrix environment?

Ø      Will the applications, once running via Citrix, perform as well as they 
did on the desktop?

Ø      How are your SLAs and any other support services requirements monitored 
and reported?

Ø      How do other applications impact Citrix, and how does Citrix impact your 
network?

Ø      If a bottleneck occurs, do you know where to start troubleshooting?

Ø      Can you be notified when a serious error appears in the event logs, when 
a Citrix server goes down or when a critical Citrix server has serious 
performance issues that are affecting many users?


Citrix iForum Recap
Citrix's iForum was truly the biggest and best every with some 2.600 attendees. 
 Many new features and functionalities for the MetaFrame Access Suite and 
MetaFrame Presentation Server were announced, including Memory and CPU 
management, and SMART Access - client aware, role based security.   Jim Kenzig, 
President of NEOCUG and Director of Networks at the Cuyahoga count Public 
Library, will present his widely acclaimed recap of the meeting.  He'll be 
"calling it as he sees it" - as always.  
 
DOOR PRIZE - as has been our tradition at the meeting after iForum, we'll be 
giving away a Citrix-logo European knapsack - a souvenir of iForum 2004.  We'll 
also have CDs with the latest White Papers and Best Practices from Citrix 
Consulting Services that were distributed at iForum.
