Difference between Log off and reset of XenApp 6.5 user sessions

Hello there,

In Citrix AppCenter, when your right click user session, you get three options:
1. Disconnect
2. Reset
3. Log Off
Disconnecting session will still keep session active (license still in use)
Reset will kill their session and user will lose unsaved work
But what will Log off do? when should we use this option.

Please advise.

Thanks and Regards

Logoff will kill all of the user's running applications and log them off.

logoff - entire session will logged off from a server and update the user profile to share
Reset - You can select the session and just close the specific session
Disconnect - To disconnect the session from a server
for more details http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/xenapp6-w2k8-admin/ps-sessions-managing-v2.html
example when a user with session id 5, when logged off the session will close. Next time he will be assigned with session id 6 or any other id. With disconnect, same session id 5 will get connected during reconnection. Reset is same session but loses unsaved data.
