Is there an alternative for Citrix staggered reboot?

I'd like to use the policy for automatically rebooting our Citrix servers, however it is not available for Xenapp 6.5 advanced.  Is there an alternative?

Create a script that restarts the server using the shutdown command. Schedule this on each server to run at a specific time. Use different times on each server.

worked perfect.

Thanks

Shutdown does a lot of stuff.

/s is "really" shutdown
/m says to shutdown a remote machine  (/m \\server)
/i give you a GUI interface to control it
/r is reboot

There's plenty more :-)
