Policy
Specify Engaged restart transition and notification schedule for updates
Enable this policy to control the timing before transitioning from Auto restarts scheduled outside of active hours to Engaged restart, which requires the user to schedule. The period can be set between 0 and 30 days from the time the restart becomes pending. You can specify the number of days a user can snooze Engaged restart reminder notifications. The snooze period can be set between 1 and 3 days. You can specify the deadline in days before automatically scheduling and executing a pending restart regardless of active hours. The deadline can be set between 2 and 30 days from the time the restart becomes pending. If configured, the pending restart will transition from Auto-restart to Engaged restart (pending user schedule) to automatically executed, within the specified period. If you do not specify a deadline or if the deadline is set to 0, the PC won't automatically restart and will require the person to schedule it prior to restart. If you disable or do not configure this policy, the PC will restart following the default schedule. Enabling any of the following policies will override the above policy: 1. No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations 2. Always automatically restart at scheduled time 3. Specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation
