Web Interface for Resource Manager 1.2

 

version 1.2

Got Citrix Resource Manager?  Try out Web Interface for Resource Manager!

Web Interface for Resource Manager is an ASP.NET 2.0 web application that contains several SQL queries to display useful information contained in the Citrix Resource Manager Summary Database.  Web Interface for Resource Manager displays this information in a drill-down graphical and tabular manner.

What's new in version 1.2?
Web Interface for Resource Manager version 1.2 includes everything in version 1.1, plus the following new features: 

  • Client Usage Report. View every client version that has ever made a connection to your farm.  This report includes a date/time range filter.  You can also drill down to see which users have used particular client versions.
  • Application Report Filters. A date range filter has been added to the Application Report.  Also, the top number of applications is selectable from 1 - 10.  The combination of these two filters allows you to select the top x applications for any given date/time range. 
Web Interface for Resource Manager version 1.2 (for Presentation Server 3.0 and above)

Note: Version 1.2 is only intended for Presentation Server 3.0 and above. This is due to the differences in the Resource Manager Summary Database schema.  The MetaFrame XP Summary Database schema does not include the tables necessary to generate these new reports. Please use Web Interface for Resource Manager Version 1.1 for MetaFrame XP.

Known Issues
  • You may receive a message stating  Invalid object name 'table' if the owner of a table is anything other than dbo.
    Use the technique described here to change the object owner to dbo.
Please note that this project is a work in progress.  There are several other ideas that are in the works to add to the functionality of this web application.  If you have ideas for further functionality, please let me know in the comments section below.

Great Work
Were you able to fix this (from 1.1)

Hello,

When launching:

http://rm/wirm/calendar.aspxclientUTCOffset=9.5

I get a runtime error:
(Note: I have remove the so I can post)

!-- Web.Config Configuration File --

configuration
system.web
customErrors mode="Off"
system.web
configuration

And:

!-- Web.Config Configuration File --

configuration
system.web
customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"
system.web
configuration

Fix:

If I launch:
http://rm/wirm/calendar.aspxclientUTCOffset=10
It works!

And if i launch:
http://rm/wirm/calendar.aspxclientUTCOffset=9.5
again, it works, no runtime error?

Strange? What do you think?

The IIS Server is in the +10 Time Zone. Client was in the +9.5 Time Zone.

Thanks

Version 1.1 for both our XPe and PS4.0 farms are working great.

However version 1.2 has the problem listed above: The graphs "Shell" shows up but doesn't populate with any information. This is for top users and top apps, basically the new code in 1.2.

Everything else in 1.2 is working fine, just the graphs are not displaying.

Some additional Views?
Perhaps in the future you could add "Max Concurrent Connections" per server and per application as a view. Being able to filter out sessions that were connected for less than a "specified duration" would be nice too (i.e. A client connects for 3 seconds can be filtered out). The ability to "Print" reports or save them as a "PDF" would be great.

Keep up the good work.

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

Curious Issue...
Has anyone had any problems implementing this using an RM db that is on an SQL 2005 server? Just to try it out, I loaded up a 2003 server with SQL 2005, created an RM db and pointed some app servers to it. I then loaded IIS on the same server, and followed the WI4RM to a tee. I keep on getting a "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800736B1". Has anyone else seen this issue?

Reply
Suggestion for next version
in the Web.Config (or another file) allow the owner of the tables to be specified as a variable?

If it is set, you use that in all table lookups (like %SUMDB_Owner%.SDB_SessionID) rather than just assuming DBO has to own everything. If it is not set, you can then assume dbo owns everything.

Just a suggestion.

Thanks jason

Reply
Re: 2 Questions
Here is what I do:

1) Open SQL Enterprise Manager
2) Go to Security -> Logins
3) Create a new Login
4) Specify the name of an AD group for the login (Domain Users for example).
5) Set the default database from the drop down list
6) Select the Database Access tab
7) Select your RM Summary DB
8) Select db_datareader as a role for this group
9) Modify your Web.Config file to use Integrated Security (does not require a username and password)

This way, any user in the group specified will be able to read the database. The web application will use the user's windows credentials to access the database.

You do not have to assign the db_owner role to anybody; just make sure dbo owns the RM DB tables.

Reply
Re: Re: 2 Questions
Jason the account I use does have db_owner on all tables in the RM except for the SQL System tables.
This however still does not work.

Here is the next stupid thing how do you add integrated security to the config file? yes I am a dumbass :)

Reply
Re: Re: Re: 2 Questions
What I mean when I say "make sure dbo owns the tables" is this:

Open SQL Enterprise Manager and browse to your RM database. In the left pane, select the "Tables" node of you RM database. In the right hand pane, a list of all the RM tables will appear. Make sure dbo is listed in the "Owner" column for each table.

Next, in Web.Config there should be an example Integrated Security connection string. If not, use this as an example:

<add name="rmsummarydbConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=server;Initial Catalog=rmsummarydb;Integrated Security=True;Language=US_English" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

Questions/Suggestions
Jason thanks for the above info. I noticed under the clients option the word frequency. Like for Version 9 of the client it says something like 20000 for frequency what do you mean by that and the same goes for applications?

For the future it be nice to see the machine name(client machine name and IP a user connected by. It would aslo be nice to get server reports like uptime.

It would also be nice to have the max concurrent usage per server and per farm. It would also be nice to have a drop down list where you could select an published app and see the max usage for that app over a particular time concurrently.

This is very good work and makes citrix effort look for poor indeed.



Reply
Re: Questions/Suggestions
Frequency refers to the number of times an application has been launched, or the number of times a particular client has connected to your farm. Also, drilling down to session details does show the client machine name and IP.

I am currently working on version 2.0 of Web Interface for Resource Manager. Getting concurrent statistics is not an easy task, but I plan on including concurrent statistics in version 2.0. Thanks for your great suggestions!

Feature Request
Jason,

I notice that when the Calendar is fist opened that the "Users: XXXX" for each day looks to represent the actual number of users for that day. When you filter by applications it appears what is reported is the number of application launches in that day not the number of users that ran that filtered application. For example: If I had 20 users that logged in on Sept 1st and during a 8 hour period 18 users open and closed Outlook two times, when I open the reporting tool it will report 20 users for Sept 1st and when filtered by App for Outlook it would report 36...causing some confusion.

Would it be possible to build in a "Reconcile" option for those of us who don’t need to know how many times a application is launched in a 24 hour period but would rather have a solid count of the actual users who used a application regardless of how many times?

For example: On Sept 1st during a 8 hour period I had 20 users logged in and 18 users opened and closed Outlook 2 times. Open the tool and filter by Application and check a “reconcile” box and it would report “20 total users for Sept 1st 18 of which ran Outlook”.

Changing the date range to one month reduces the error point to 4. Could it be corrupt data in thr DB??

Charts now showing data
First, great product. Can't wait for new version.
The only issue I'm having is that the Applications and Clients chart are not showing any data. The DBO owner is dbo I ave checked this. Any thing else I can look at? Jason thanks for creating this.

server cpu statistics
Love the version 2.0 but I am seeing the following issue, the server cpu statistics don't agree with the canned reports from report center in access console, nor do they agree with the cpu results from the vm console. the discrepancy that we are seeing is that there are some cpu spikes in the graph which don't show up with the other tools

Usage info question
Hi Jason...the app rocks!
quick question though the calendar show extremely high session info for our environme nt. we usually hve 100+ concurrent users, but the calendar stats show 1400+ sessions per day. Also when I drill down into the session chart I can't correlate those numbers to the calendar. Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks Larz

High memory usage
First off.. very nice.
One thing I have noticed though all my application mem usage reports in GB when I know it isn't. Has anyone else noticed this?

Re: High memory usage
Citrix stores this statistical data as a sum of an average for the lifetime of the session. So, this data may look quite large for sessions that were logged on for longer periods of time.
