Poort mans VMware View PCoIP Logging and monitoring with Splunk
Tuesday, 14 December 2010 by Michel Roth

 The multi-talented Andre L. of VMware has gotten with the people of Splunk (gotta love than name) - the logging folks - and create a special 'app' that allows you to do PCoIP logging and reporting.

 "In a previous article whereI explained how to use a tool called Splunk to collect, index, search & analyse PCoIP log files across the entire organisation. On that same article I mentioned that I soon would be publishing a App for Splunk. I have been working with the Splunk team (Thanks to Brett Matthews, Tat-wee Kan and Daniel Miller) to create this app and it is now ready for use and distribution.

This app that you are about to download will allow you to monitor passively or in real-time all PCoIP traffic from your VMware View environment independent of how many concurrent users – anything between 1 and thousands of desktops. 

These numbers will let you know how exactly PCoIP is performing in your network and how the users are perceiving their experience. I’ll soon write an article on how you understand and analyse each one of those values, but now enough talking and let me demonstrate what I am providing here."
