Not noticed it before but you could stop IMA before rebooting.....However
sounds like a glitch that citrix need to fix.....

Subject: [THIN] Disabled Logins & Rebooting


 
Here's the situation:
 
I disable logins to one of my servers.  I did this via the CMC and via the
command-line, "change logon /disable", just to be sure.
 
No users on the box.
 
Start, Shutdown, Restart box
 
In the CMC, Load Evaluators, I am seeing the users being directed to various
other boxes.  All of a sudden, 14 users are sent to the box that was offline
and in the process of rebooting.  The box evidently is marked by Citrix to
enabled mode prior to the reboot.
 
This has been a REAL pet PIEVE of mine about when rebooting servers, that
they come backup enabled and ready to accept connections, but I had not
realized the impact it was having as they went down for a reboot.
 
Why is it that a server would be enabled just as it is being rebooted?  and
to make matters worse, users are being directed to that box while it is
going down, where the logic?!?!? <RANT>
 
 
So, am I missing something, or has everyone been suffering along on this
issue?
