Description

How much data volume does the agent produce?

Can I reduce the data volume?


Instructions

The data volume is highly dependent on the actual user behavior. 
A user session where multiple applications are started and stopped all day produces more data volume than a user session where only one application is in use all day.

However, there are some rough figures that indicate the actual data volume. 

Please note that those numbers are calculated per working day, 8 hours. 
The multi-user host is estimated at 20 users per host. 

 

uberAgent UXM data volume:

  • Typical data volume per single-user client and working day: 25 MB
  • Typical data volume per multi-user (Citrix CVAD/RDS) server and working day: 90 MB

 

Customer can reduce the volume by enabling the data volume optimized configuration, or by considering one of the configurations mentioned in the documentation. 

Some optimization steps:

  • Reduce the Frequency (default 30 seconds)
  • Remove Metrics
  • Monitor Top5 processes only

Additional Information

Please see more details in the documentation.
