About the execution of Managed Software Delivery
policies
When a Managed Software Delivery policy runs on a managed computer, it
performs a series of tasks that are grouped into the following phases:
■
Compliance
See Table 6-2 .
■
Remediation
See Table 6-3 .
When you schedule a Managed Software Delivery policy, you can assign different
schedules for compliance and remediation. For example, you can schedule the
compliance status to be reported during the day and the remediation to occur
only during a maintenance window.
See “About policy applicability, compliance, and remediation” on page 102.
The ability to separate compliance and remediation also allows for the offline
execution of Managed Software Delivery policies. When the compliance check
determines that a remediation is required, the policy downloads the appropriate
package. Remediation can occur even if the client computer is not connected to
the server because the client computer already has the package that it needs.
See “About deferring the execution of software remediation” on page 124.
