Not noticed it before but you could stop IMA before rebooting.....However sounds like a glitch that citrix need to fix..... -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Eilers, Lee (CDC/OCOO/ITSO) (CTR) Sent: 18 May 2006 14:24 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 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? *********************************************************************************** The Royal Bank of Scotland plc.
