POCs are an activity that sales engineers perform on a routine basis.  It's the best way to show the value of a product within a customer's environment.  I created this guide to help anyone (Citrites, partners, customers) who is interested in setting up a POC of EdgeSight 4.5.

Are my notes perfect?  It would be nice to be perfect, but I'm human.

Should you deploy this in a production environment?  Never

Can I contact Citrix Tech Support for assistance with this document?  Unofficial = Unsupported

If you have any questions, compliments, corrections, etc. about this document, please post a comment to the blog and I will respond.

Download the POC Guide here.

    You're welcome!  That's why I wrote it.  I'm glad I was able to help out.  I will work on a EdgeSight 5.0 POC guide if it's necessary once 5.0 comes out.

    Hello Matt,

    thanks for your nice and clean poc.I am using it to install edgesight on a test system for preparation of the 1y800 exam. I am having an issue here: I am at the bottom of page 29 of the poc. When I click the "OK - Update Report Server Settings" button, I receive a internet explorer script error: line: 32, char: 780, error: unterminated string constant, code : 0, url: http://servername/edgesight40/app/ops/config/reporting/rsconfigstatus.aspx; Do you want to continue running scripts on this page? I found ctx 115879 but that did not resolve the issue.

    Do you have any clues for me?

    Regards

    Anthony

    Mark,

     From your experience how long does it take to run through an Edgesight POC for a client including implementation and reporting time?

    How different is v5.0 compared to 4.5?

      Sorry for not replying sooner! My average is about a day to set everything up and then I usually circle back in a week to go over the data that has been collected.

    Matt, If I already have an existing SQL db and want to use that INSTEAD of creating a new SQL database, due to size, etc. How can I go about doing that? Whenever I try, I get an error than an existing Edgesight database does not exist. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

        Back in August 2008 you mentioned you may update the guide for Edgesight 5.x.  Do you still have any plans for this or are the high level concepts  in this doc fairly similar?

          Most of the document is still relevant, but there is a lot I would like to update. I just checked the number of downloads for the document and it's over 1,900. I'll see what I can do to update it, but I can't promise anything.

    I'm interested in reading your POC guide for version 5 if/ when you do one.

    Thanks Mark, glad it helped you out!

    I've started working on the 5.x version, but no ETA on when it will be finished. I'm hoping I'll have it done before December.
