Hi Folks,
Heres another great Freebie from Warren Simondson!
Jim
Hi All
I tapped out this little freeware utility the other day and thought it may be
of some use to the community.
You can download the utility from
http://www.ctrl-alt-del.com.au/CAD_Utils.htm.
TSReboot is a command-line tool to reboot selected or all Citrix and Terminal
Servers within a Domain with specified intervals.
This utility was written to replace reboot commands currently found
in the MS Windows Operating System. This utility offers an extra
feature that will be of benefit to all admins - the ALL switch.
Using this switch, an admin can centrally reboot all Citrix/TS servers
within a Domain with one command, and at specified intervals.
An EXCLUDE switch is also available to exclude selected servers from the
ALL option. It is recommended that you run TSREBOOT LISTALL first to
list what Citrix/TS servers are available in the Domain.
This command can also be used in a script. This command can only be used
with administrative privileges.
You can run this command as a scheduled task. If this command is executed
with the ALL option from a Citrix/ TS server within the domain, then the
executing server will be rebooted last.
Servers are not rebooted all at once with the ALL command. The delay between
the reboot of each server is set at the command line (default: 20 minutes).
All users on each server are sent a message to logoff prior to the reboot.
Any user failing to logoff 2 minutes prior to reboot will be gracefully
logged off by the system.
This utility is FREEWARE and was written by Warren Simondson of

Thankyou to the WINDOWS SDK available from http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads
