Deep Dive into ControlUp’s Disk Monitor
In this episode of the “ControlUp” podcast, hosts Jeff and Eugenia introduce and discuss ControlUp’s new Disk Monitor tool with its creator, Chris Twiest. The Disk Monitor is designed to track all read and write activity on hard drives, providing valuable insights into disk usage.
Chris explains that the Disk Monitor was initially developed to address challenges in non-persistent environments like Citrix, where cache issues can impact performance. Unlike traditional tools like Procmon, the Disk Monitor operates efficiently, providing detailed reports on disk activity without compromising system performance.
The discussion expands to cover use cases for persistent environments, such as laptops, where the tool can help diagnose issues like sudden disk space depletion.
Chris also shares insights into upcoming developments, including the Disk Monitor 2.0, which will monitor writes to FSLogix, and a future Network Monitor tool.
