My way was to disable the scnotify.exe with an applocker gpo on the terminal 
servers. So it couldn't be executed.
Only problem is that you don't get any notifications and i really think that it 
isn't supported by MS. But until now it works fine.

There actually is a way to disable scnotify or handle this situation (I just 
don't remember what it is off-hand). Torsten or Kenny would know off-hand.

I figured it was possibly a common problem since Citrix is common.

I can prune them with some kind of automation script, but that would be crap.

Of course, we are possibly seeing Citrix step on WMI classes in root/ccm as a 
chronic issue, so I'm not a friend 'o Citrix at the moment.

Decommission your Citrix servers.

(end of day, you didn't ask for a good solution, just what could be done)

Subject: [mssms] Over Run with SCNotify files on terminal servers/Citrix

I just deleted 5,000 SCNotify and _SCNotify files from the SCCM client logs 
folder on a Citrix server.  This was 300MB of files.

What can be done to mitigate this?  It was not the first time, so I don't think 
this is a one-off.

Thanks.
