Description
This command line support tool performs a consistency data check on the data and connectivity verification in a XenDesktop 5 database. It also outputs the following diagnostic data into comma-separated value (.csv) files located in a compressed file (.zip) named computername_XDDBDiag_Output.zip to the same directory in which the program is located.
This program checks for updates automatically when it is first executed. This is only a notification and does not impact the behavior.
How to Use XDDBDiag
The following command line parameters control how the program connects to the XenDesktop 5 database:
For local connections to a SQL Express installation, use the [local] switch.
For remote connections to a SQL server use the following syntax:
XDDBDiag [windows] [SQL server] [SQL Database] [SQLStats]
Example:
XDDBDiag
XDDBDiag local
SQL Windows Authentication
XDDBDiag windows sqlserver mydatabase
XDDBDiag windows sqlserver mydatabase
You can view the log file for any errors or additional information: XDDBDiagLog.txt.
Note: There is no dependency on the broker service because this queries the XenDesktop 5 database directly.
Installing XDDBDiag
No special installation is required. Just copy the program and XML configuration file to the same directory and run the executable file.
