Previously, you could schedule image updates by waiting for the MCS machine's next reboot, or by triggering an immediate reboot to all the VMs in the catalog. With this feature, you can now create a reboot schedule for a desired catalog or VM(s) to occur once on a desired date and time in an effort to facilitate scheduled MCS image updates. This feature affects both on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS cloud environments. This can be used with either single-session or multi-session delivery groups.

You can create a one-time reboot schedule for:

  • A single VM
  • Multiple VMs in same catalog
  • Entire catalog

You can also change an existing time schedule or delete an existing time schedule. For more information, see https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-daas/install-configure/machine-catalogs-manage.html#change-the-master-image.

Information on the PowerShell SDK command will be included in https://developer-docs.citrix.com/projects/citrix-daas-sdk/en/latest/Broker/New-BrokerCatalogRebootSchedule/.
