# Start-BrokerNaturalRebootCycle

Reboots all machines from the specified catalog when they are not in use.

Syntax

Start-BrokerNaturalRebootCycle [-InputObject] <Catalog[]> [-LoggingId <Guid>] [-AdminAddress <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

Creating a natural reboot cycle for a catalog ensures that all machines in the catalog are running the most recent image for the catalog.

The machines are rebooted in a non-disruptive manner, allowing machines that are in use to continue working and be restarted only after they become idle.

InputObject Reboots all machines from this input catalog. The catalogs can be specified using UID values, name values (including wildcards) or catalog objects. true true (ByValue)
LoggingId Specifies the identifier of the high level operation that this cmdlet call forms a part of. Desktop Studio and Desktop Director typically create High Level Operations. PowerShell scripts can also wrap a series of cmdlet calls in a High Level Operation by way of the Start-LogHighLevelOperation and Stop-LogHighLevelOperation cmdlets. false false
AdminAddress Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller that the PowerShell snapin will connect to. This can be provided as a host name or an IP address. false false Localhost. Once a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value will become the default.
