To effectively monitor a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops infrastructure daily, an administrator should focus on practical and critical maintenance tasks. Testing environment access ensures that users can connect and operate within the virtual environment without issues. Checking virtual machine power states verifies that all necessary VMs are running as expected, preventing lapses in service availability. Regularly reviewing warnings or alerts with Citrix Director is essential for identifying and addressing potential issues before they impact the user experience. These actions help maintain operational stability and performance in a Citrix environment on a daily basis.
