Application slowness is a major concern for any organization because it results in business impact or productivity. As an administrator, you must ensure that all applications perform optimally to avoid any business impact.

Each application behaves different and has different response time expectations. When you have a big server farm, it becomes time-consuming task for adminstrators to assess each application and set thresholds for server response time.

The Server Response Time indicator helps administrators assess every application based on the machine learning algorithm. This indicator reports:

Abnormal high response time
Abnormal low response time

Click the Server Response Time tab to view the issue details.

The Recommended Actions suggest you to troubleshoot these anomalies.

Under Details, you can view:

The application that has the anomaly
The service that is bound to the application
The Citrix ADC instance IP address
The anomaly severity type
The application current status
The server response time graph for the selected time period
Rolling median graph based on the server response time
Anomaly details

Citrix ADM detects anomalies for abnormal high response time and for abnormal low response time.

Anomaly for abnormal high server response time

Citrix ADM compares the average server response time for a specific duration. As per the example shown in the image, Citrix ADM compares the average server response time between 17:50 and 18:20.

When the server response time begins to increase, Citrix ADM further monitors the server response time for another specific duration and then detects anomaly for the time when the server response time has started to increase.

According to the example shown in the image, you can see an anomaly was detected, mentioning that the server response time is increased by 733%, after comparing the average server response time between 17:52 and 18:07.
Anomaly for abnormal low server response time

Citrix ADM compares the average server response time for a specific duration. As per the example shown in the image, Citrix ADM compares the average server response time between 14:51 and 15:06.

When the server response time begins to decrease, Citrix ADM further monitors the server response time for another specific duration and then detects anomaly for the time when the server response time has started to decrease.

According to the example shown in the image, you can see an anomaly was detected, mentioning that the server response time is decreased by 86%, after comparing the average server response time between 14:51 and 15:06.
