01/04/2023, 5:43 PMMaybe something like (Get-BrokerSession -AdminAddress <DDCName> -DesktopGroupName <DGName>).Count
I have no way to test this.

01/04/2023, 6:55 PMSo far I have this
# Import the Citrix Broker PowerShell module
#Import-Module Citrix.Broker.Admin.V2
asnp Citrix*
# Connect to the Citrix Delivery Services environment
$adminAddress = "ddc01.lab.local"
$site = Get-BrokerSite -AdminAddress $adminAddress
# Get all delivery groups in the environment
$deliveryGroups = Get-BrokerDesktopGroup
# Create an empty array to store the sessions
$sessions = @()
# Iterate through each delivery group and retrieve the sessions
foreach ($deliveryGroup in $deliveryGroups)
{
# Get the sessions for the delivery group
$groupSessions = Get-BrokerSession -AdminAddress $adminAddress -DesktopGroupName $deliveryGroup.Name
# Add the sessions to the array
$sessions += $groupSessions
}
# Create the HTML report
$html = $sessions | ConvertTo-Html -Property DesktopGroupName, ClientIP, UserName, StartTime, SessionType, SessionId, MachineName
# Save the HTML report to a file
$html | Out-File "C:\Temp\sessions.html"
Just need to figure out how to put columns in the html part

01/04/2023, 6:56 PMi thought you wanted only how many, not details. my doc scripts have included session data since 2013
r
Ray Davis
01/04/2023, 6:58 PMSorry, I did not explain it right then. This client wants a report every hour on DG name, username, How many session are in use on each DG, IP name. Things like that.
