20.2.5 Modifying Reboot Behavior

until the device is rebooted.
To modify the reboot behavior:
1
In ZENworks Control Center, click
Configuration
in the left pane, then click the
System
Updates
tab.
2
In the Deployment Stages panel, select the check box for one or more the deployment stages,
click
Action
, then click
Modify Reboot Behavior

Select one of the following options:
Prompt User to Reboot When Update Finishes Applying (Default):
After the update
has been applied, a request to reboot is immediately displayed. If the user initially rejects
rebooting, the user is periodically requested to reboot the device, until the device is
rebooted.
Do Not Reboot Device:
The device does not reboot; however, the user is periodically
requested to reboot the device, until the device is rebooted.
Force Device to Reboot:
After the update has been applied, the device is automatically
rebooted without user intervention, if a reboot is required by the update.
