To solve the issue of a grey screen when trying to access a custom data index, it is suggested to delete the whole index and build a new Object with all separate items.

Deleting the index will allow the agent to send data again, and regenerate the index.

ControlUp Devices page become super slow to load and be able to interact with?
Users were experiencing slow load times when interacting with the Devices page, and believed it was due to seeing too many devices at once being set at 100. It was suggested to switch to 10 or 20 devices to improve responsiveness, however this was previously set up to 50 devices without issues.

Health Checks for VMware UAGs Using Horizon and UAG APIs within ControlUp
A user asked for suggestions on what metrics to assess in a project to do better health checks on VMware UAGs using Horizon and UAG APIs. Ideas include alerting when a connection server exceeds a threshold, and when services are not in a running state, as well as low available memory and high CPU. These metrics would also be desirable to display in ControlUp's Solve and Console. Discussions also included Dennis' idea to bring the data to Edge DX and a feature request for UAG data.

How to Make ControlUp Edge DX Recognize Windows-Based Thin Clients
A user was having an issue with Windows-based thin clients not showing up properly on Edge DX when the device image was sysprepped and reinstalled. Edge has a UID stored in the programdata folder which marks the device as unique. To solve this issue, the UID must be removed before sealing the image, and then a new UID will be generated when the Edge agent is restarted. The UID file can be found in C:\programdata\Avacee\sip_agent\cachefiles.
