Abstract
One or more aspects of this disclosure may relate to using a configurable server farm preference for an application, desktop or other hosted resource. Additional aspects may relate to moving server farm workloads based on the configurable server farm preference. Further aspects may relate to performing reboot cycles, a reboot schedule and on-demand rebooting. Yet further aspects may relate to staggering individual machine reboot operations over a specified period of time and performing reboot operations such that some machines are available for user sessions during a reboot cycle.
