Using ControlUp Triggers to Restart VMs with Pending Updates in Citrix

Posted on April 24, 2025

There is a question about using ControlUp Triggers to restart a VM when the user count reaches 0. There is a trigger set up to check the user session and reboot, but the check pending update condition is not working. It is clarified that the update referred to is for a master/golden image for Citrix. The CVAD pending image update column is suggested as a possible solution. A screenshot is provided for reference.


Read the entire ‘Using ControlUp Triggers to Restart VMs with Pending Updates in Citrix’ thread below:

I assume there is a method with ControlUp Triggers to restart a VM with a pending update when user count reaches 0.

I have the trigger working properly, "to this state> user session equals 0"

but cannot get the check pending update condition and reboot working.


Pending update being a Windows update?


oh no sorry, master/golden image update.


For Citrix?


yea for citrix


Would the CVAD pending image update column achieve what you’re looking for?


so something like this?

and script action reboot?
