What is Session Lingering in Citrix ?
Session lingering prevents a session from closing as soon as the user ends the last published application in a session. It is assumed that a users may have closed the last published application unknowingly. Instead of logging off, the session is silently retained to provide very short startup times for future published applications.
Session lingering kicks in as soon as a session is meant to be terminated. This may be caused by the user ending the last published application in a session or if both pre-launch timeouts occured (see above).
Session lingering uses two timers to determine whether the lingering session is kept available:
- Disconnect Timer: After the configured time interval, the session is disconnected. A disconnect timer of zero forces the decision about the session's fate on the terminate timer.
- Terminate Timer: When this timer runs out, the session is terminated and the users will have to suffer the logon time when launching a published application.
The Citrix eDocs contain a short description of both timers. The above video also provides a walkthrough for setting up session lingering.
