https://community.splunk.com/t5/Monitoring-Splunk/Citrix-XenDesktop-app-spiking-CPU-usage/m-p/459769#M5834 <P>Hello, I'm having issues with my Citrix XenDesktop7 app and TA. The forwarder (7.02, same as my enterprise splunk) doesn't seem to be the issue but after running procmon and resource monitor, I found that the Citrix server (Win2016 server, XenApp 7.8 NOT RUNNING XEN DERSKTOP VDI) has the powershell.exe process spiking the CPU when it's calling the "GetXDSession7.ps1" script from the TA-XD7-Broker app on the host. When running that powershell script, the CPU spikes hard and users logging into the server are having severe lagging issues.</P> <P>Obviously, I can throw more resources at the VM but I was wondering if anyone else has seen similar performance issues in their environment before I start requesting more CPU from my server admins.</P> <P>Thanks!<BR /> PM</P> Wed, 25 Jul 2018 16:24:52 GMT pmac22 2018-07-25T16:24:52Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Monitoring-Splunk/Citrix-XenDesktop-app-spiking-CPU-usage/m-p/459769#M5834 <P>Hello, I'm having issues with my Citrix XenDesktop7 app and TA.
