NAME

Citrix::SessOp - Disconnect or Logoff from an existing Citrix Session.

DESCRIPTION

Control Citrix session state by launching associated command line utilities. The module user should take care of gaining authority to (by host/user, whatever) execute these commands successfully on Citrix Farm as the current process runtime user (It seems Citrix commands and associated protocol map the user 1-to-1 to the server end). Lacking this permission the commands will fail.

Module aims to provide proper return values and error messages when things fail, but this is not a substitute for first taking care of of proper permissions (for lauching Citrix commands) with your local Citrix Admin.

SYNOPSIS

  use Citrix::SessOp;
  my $fms = Citrix::getfarms('idx' => 1);
  my $farmctx = $fms->{'cairo'};
  my $csop = Citrix::SessOp->new($farmctx);
  
  # Disconnect (leaves session idle, to "returnable" state)
  $err = $csop->disconnect("the-cx-host-12:8879");
  
  # Log Off Completely (Terminating UNIX X-Windows session)
  $err = $csop->logoff("the-cx-host-12:8879");

METHODS

$csop = Citrix::SessOp->new($farmctx);

Create a new Citrix session operation by Citrix::Farm context ($farmctx). The ops available later are disconnect() / logoff() (See method docs on each for details). Return session operation instance.

$err = $cop->disconnect("the-cx-host-12:8879");

Disconnect a Citrix session By Host Session ID ($hostsess in format "$hostname:$sessid"). Disconnect persists the session state (leaves applications in the state they were before disconnect). Return 0 for success, 1 (and up) for errors.

$err = $cop->logoff("the-cx-host-12:8879");

Logoff from a Citrix session By Host Session ID ($hostsess in format "$hostname:$sessid"). Logging off completely destroys the session state (closes apps and terminates X-Windows session). Return 0 for success, 1 (and up) for errors.
