Health Check

The Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops & Desktops as a Service Health Check Script on Steroids

UPDATE: Version 1.5.9 released on 3rd March 2026. See below for all the details.

Since November 2014 many of us have been using the amazing Sacha Thomet’s XenApp and XenDesktop Health Check Script. I’ve made my own modifications to it over the years, but never contributed and shared anything publicly until June 2025. My motivation is to give the community some amazing visibility of their Citrix environments that they’ve never had before. I took the last release from Sacha, which was the February 2022 update, together with some modules I’d previously written, and overhauled the whole process from top to bottom, and wrote even more modules. Sacha has kindly committed my pull requests to his GitHub repository, which officially adds me as Contributor!

Active Directory Health Check, Audit and Remediation Scripts

I’ve been doing Active Directory work for many years and as such have a library of hundreds of scripts to assist with health checks, audits, and remediation tasks that I would like to share with the community.

But it’s not just a case of providing a script that creates a CSV or screen output, etc, as the output needs to be thoroughly explained so that the results are correctly understood and interpreted. The last thing I want is for someone to take the output of one of my scripts and start looking for a problem that does not exist, or making unnecessary modifications to their environment. This means that each script requires a separate article of it’s own. I have been doing this to date, but wanted to create a post to list all scripts used for health checks, audits and remediation tasks; linking them in as I blog about each one. I will also link out to other peoples scripts and articles that I use and find valuable.

I hope you find this a valuable source of information.
