ShutdownPlus Rolling Restart
  ShutdownPlus Rolling Restart automatically logs off users and restarts terminal servers on a round-robin schedule, by following a hub/spoke model. One server is the controller (hub), which restarts all the member (spoke) servers. Each member server is restarted, in succession, from the controller server.

How it works

 

 

Watch the above animation to see how ShutdownPlus Rolling Restart silently restarts its member servers from a central master server.

The master server controlls each of the three member servers. It does the following:

  1. Disables logons on server1
  2. Waits until users all log off of server1 (users can be forced off or the server can be skipped after a period of time)
  3. Restart server1
  4. Wait until server1 comes back online
  5. Repeat steps above for the next server (server2)
