We don't schedule regular reboots on our Terminal servers. But with the number of patches released, they get rebooted on average once a month. -----Original Message----- From: Spencer Sun [mailto:ssun@xxxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, 14 February 2004 5:45 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: OT: OT: What's the biggest problem you deal with? On a side note, I was wondering how many of you have a reboot schedule enable on your Metaframe farm. What OS and the how often you reboot. IF you stagger the reboots in different parts of the farm, etc. I've a client who absolutely refuses to schedule reboots on the farm, They have Windows 2000 farm and firmly believe that Windows 2000 does NOT require reboots. I believe that part of the problem is that they do not want unattended reboots, as they are afraid servers will not come back up. Seems kinda funky to me, but I wanted to get a feel for what the rest of the communicty is doing.

Hello All, Since it's Friday I thought I'd ask something that I've been wondering for a long time. I'm a consultant and I focus 100% on Citrix and server-based computing. While I work with a lot of different IT departments, I've never actually had to run my own Citrix farm day after day. (Which means I'm either totally lucky or a total sham!) Anyway, as Citrix administrators, what's the one thing that's the biggest pain in the butt in running your Citrix farms? Printing? AV? Security Patches? Profiles? Hmm. maybe I should say "other than the users, what's the biggest pain?" :-) Just curious, Brian Brian Madden brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx +1.202.302.3657 Visit <http://www.brianmadden.com> www.brianmadden.com for in-depth Citrix, Terminal Server, and server-based computing news and analysis, white papers, downloadable videos, and product reviews. ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Vizioncore, Inc. --> vc-iMonitor - Performance Monitoring, Control & Reporting --> vc-iControl - Desktop & Start Menu Management & Reporting --> vc-iMapper - Drive, Printer & COM Management & Reporting http://vizioncore.com/products.html ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Vizioncore, Inc. --> vc-iMonitor - Performance Monitoring, Control & Reporting --> vc-iControl - Desktop & Start Menu Management & Reporting --> vc-iMapper - Drive, Printer & COM Management & Reporting http://vizioncore.com/products.html ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Vizioncore, Inc. --> vc-iMonitor - Performance Monitoring, Control & Reporting --> vc-iControl - Desktop & Start Menu Management & Reporting --> vc-iMapper - Drive, Printer & COM Management & Reporting http://vizioncore.com/products.html ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm -- This transmission is for the intended addressee only and is confidential information.
