I am training now for the CCA (Citrix Certified Administrator on 
Metaframe XP 1.0)

a quote right out of the training materials (Osborne book)

"Reboot Schedule
Periodic server reboots can be scheduled using the Reboot Schedule tab 
for each server.  It is a good practice to reboot servers on a regular 
basis.  The reason for this is that applications housed on the server 
can cause memory leaks that tie up valuable resources on your servers.

On the Job: It is best to reboot MetaFrame Servers nightly if you do 
not run 24/7 application access to your users.  Rebooting in the middle 
of the night is a good practice.  Keep your backup job in mind, 
however, whenever you schedule your server's reboot schedule.  You 
don't want your MetaFrame server rebooting itself in the middle of its 
backup."
