MPS3.0 SP4
I like the idea of a separate load evaluator. I have a script for
publishing applications, however, 50 applications took 20+ minutes to
publish/unpublish. The script approach is time constrictive.
What you describe as preferred behavior indicates to me that MS needs to
improve this aspect in terminal services, Citrix too, so that admins can
work the boxes accordingly.

Which version of Presentation Server? 3.0 and 4.0 have the feature you
describe (chglogon setting survives a reboot). My beef is that feature
screws with automatic reboots so I'd rather it NOT survive a reboot. If
you want to take a server offline, create an offline load evaluator or
create a script that publishes and unpublishes the applications.

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?
