Thanks for the reply.

The ActiveReboot script uses the TSShutdn command. I will check on the
delay time and also setup the /v option for logging.

Thanks.

I don't know what the ActiveReboot Script of yours does, but that seems
to
be the cullprit. 
Try using TSShutdn
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/Serv

erHelp/e370fb1d-e259-4369-8afa-25320831a40d.mspx) of even just plain
shutdown.exe
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317371&sd=tech)

In either case be sure to be extra carefull on the kill limits.
Meaning
allowing a decent amount of time for processes/users to shut
down/logoff.
This is about the /delay option in tsshutdn and the /c option in
shutdown.exe .

Only use shutdown.exe as a last resort: it doens't allow for users to
be
decently logged of. 

Use the verbose option (/v) in tsshutdn and write it to a log file if
problems persist. 

HTH,

M.Roth.

Yes, in each case a manual reboot causes the server to come up
properly.

Does a manual reboot do a better job?

Onderwerp: [THIN] Reboot issues


I have two issues with my new farm. I am running windows 2003 and
Metaframe XPe with FR3/SP4. I've setup a scheduled reboot using the
ActiveReboot script. The problems I am experiencing are when the
server
reboots.

1. The IMA Service fails to start along with some other services.
2. Everything appears to be running but I cannot connect to the server
using ICA or RDP.

In each case a reboot of the server will cause everything to come up
normally. I have applied KB842506 to fix the logins disabled on Reboot
using tsshutdn issue. Nothing is showing up in the event logs to
indicate any issue.


Any ideas?
