UPHClean, a tool used by many Citrix Admins to ensure that sessions were cleaned up correctly and to keep servers running smoothly, is sadly End of Life
According to Robin Caron's blogpost : Unfortunately this post is to report that UPHClean is now officially dormant. Release bits for UPHClean v2.0 are not forthcoming....This means that the current beta build (2.0.49.0) is the latest bits and will stay the only code available for the forseable future. This code works well for most people (> 99%). It does not function on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 nor Windows Server 2008 R2. Which is a bit of a pain as people move ever slowly from Windows 2000/2003. However, bear in mind other listings magazine are available - for instance over at CitrixTools.net there is XenApp Sessions Cleaner. This utility runs on Windows 2000 all the way through to Windows 2008 - with x64 flavours supported as well. UPHClean was a valuable addition to help maintain a stable Citrix server - but XenApp Session Cleaner has steadily gained a number of devotees. If you know of any other alternative, feel free to drop us a line. |
