Advanced Settings 编辑

Use these settings to control how and when the Workspace Environment Management (WEM) agent processes actions.

Monitoring preferences

This page contains the following insights-related settings:

• Optimization and usage insights. Lets you gain insights into application behavior. Use the following option to control whether the agent collects and uploads data for insights.
  • Enable data collection and upload for optimization and usage insights

  After you enable the option, data updates might take a few hours to complete.

• Profile container insights. Lets you gain insights into profile containers for Profile Management and FSLogix. Use the following option to control whether the agent scans large files on profile containers.

  • Enable large file scanning

    If enabled, run a scan of large files on profile containers when container usage exceeds the specified threshold value. Scanning is limited to once every 24 hours. You can specify what files are treated as large files based on their size.

• Profile Management health check. Lets you specify the scope of settings to cover in Profile Management health check reports. Health checks run every 24 hours or on demand. Select the Profile Management settings that you want to cover in the reports.

  Note:

  • To run health checks on demand, use the Run Profile Management health check option in Monitoring > Administration > Agents.
  • Changes you make are reflected only in new reports and do not affect existing reports. Only the latest report is maintained for each agent.

File shares

This page lets you add SMB shares to which WEM can connect. You can then configure shares for desired features so that those features can use the shares as needed. Using SMB shares reduces traffic on networks and reduces the time to download files to agent machines.

The following graphic provides an overview of how file shares work.

A file download begins with a specific agent machine. This initial download occurs through Citrix Cloud. After the download completes, the agent uploads the file to the file share for other agents to use. So, later downloads occur directly through the file share rather than through Citrix Cloud.

With a file share configured, when a file download is needed, the agent first verifies whether the file is available on the file share. If available, the download occurs through the file share. If unavailable, the agent connects to Citrix Cloud for the initial download and then uploads the downloaded file to the file share.

Add SMB share

Enter an SMB share and credentials of an administrator with permission to access that share. Complete the following steps:

1. On the File Shares page, click Add SMB share.

2. In the Add SMB share wizard, fill in the following information:

   • SMB share. Enter the path in the form \\ServerName\ShareName where ServerName is the FQDN or IP address of the server hosting the SMB share and ShareName is the name of the SMB share.
   • User name. Enter the name in the form domain\username.
   • Password. Enter the password to be used to access the SMB share.

3. Click Done to save and exit.

Select SMB shares for features to use

Select an SMB share from the list. The setting defaults to None selected. When selecting shares for features, consider the following:

• The credentials must have full read/write permission on the shares.
• To connect to the shares, the agent must run under the local system account.
• When configured, the features use the shares as needed — the connections to the shares are non-persistent and established only when necessary.
• If the shares are not accessible, agents fall back to downloading files through Citrix Cloud.

Select SMB shares for relevant services to use

Select one or more SMB shares from the list. When selected, services (for example, Citrix Profile Management service) running under the local system account in your deployment can use the shares as needed — the connections to the shares are persistent. This feature enables those services to access the shares through the connections.

SMB configuration example

For an example of how to configure SMB shares, see Configure SMB shares for Citrix Profile Management service to use.
