Search tips
When you type the user's name in a Search field, Director searches for users in Active Directory for users across all sites configured to support Director.
When you type a multiuser machine name in a Search field, Director displays the Machine Details for the specified machine.
When you type an endpoint name in a Search field, Director uses the unauthenticated (anonymous) and authenticated sessions that are connected to a specific endpoint, which enables troubleshooting unauthenticated sessions. Ensure that endpoint names are unique to enable troubleshooting of unauthenticated sessions.
The search results also include users who are not currently using or assigned to a machine.
Searches are not case-sensitive.
Partial entries produce a list of possible matches.
After you type a few letters of a two-part name (username, family name and first name, or display name), separated by a space, the results include matches for both strings. For example, if you type jo rob, the results might include strings such as “John Robertson” or Robert, Jones.

Upload troubleshooting information to Citrix Technical Support
Run Citrix Scout from a single Delivery Controller or VDA to capture key data points and Citrix Diagnosis Facility (CDF) traces to troubleshoot selected computers. After capturing this information, Scout securely uploads the data points to Citrix Technical Support. The Tools As a Service (TaaS) platform uses this information to reduce the time to resolve customer-reported issues.
Scout is installed with XenApp or XenDesktop components. Scout appears in the Windows Start Menu or Windows 8 or 8.1 Start Screen when you install or upgrade to XenDesktop 7.1, XenDesktop 7.5, or XenApp 7.5.
To start Scout, from the Start Menu or Start Screen, select Citrix > Citrix Scout.
