After installing VDA , Event 1008 & 2004 appear in the Application event logs on "Citrix Desktop service" start
EventID: 1008
Source: PerfLib
Description: The Open Procedure for service "WmiApRpl" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wbem\wmiaprpl.dll" failed. Performance data for this service will not be available. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the error code.
EventID: 2004
Source: PerfNet
Description: Unable to open the Server service performance object. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the status code
We can see broker agent load perfnet.dll at the time of the event however there is no indication of a failure within our CDF traces
In the procmon similarly there is no clear indication of a failure, however we do see multiple permissions errors for "Network Service Account"
Workarounds:
Error 1008 - give full permissions on the following key to the network service account
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wmiApRpl
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSDTC
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NETFramework
Error 2004
Add Network Service account to the Local Administrators group on the VDA.
Solution:
This is a known limitation and these events can be safely ignored because they do not adversely affect functionality of any Citrix component.
