CTX: Creating, Configuring, and Testing Health Monitoring & Recovery Tests

Health Monitoring & Recovery is a new feature of Citrix Presentation Server 4.5. The main function of the Health Monitoring & Recovery feature is to monitor the health of Presentation Server. If any of the tests fail, you can configure the Health Monitoring & Recovery feature to generate a recovery action, such as disabling the load balancing capability of the server or restarting the server. The Health Monitoring & Recovery feature includes a number of preconfigured tests; however, you can use the Health Monitoring & Recovery SDK to
create custom tests for your specific environment.
This white paper describes security considerations and how to create, configure, and test Health Monitoring & Recovery tests. The topics covered are:
• “Security Privileges and Testing”
• “Test File Location”
• “HMRSDKTester.exe Utility”
• “Creating and Configuring a Test”
• “Supported Formats”
• “Example of a Nonsupported Scripting Language Test”
