Review Windows Feature Update schedule details

Review Windows Feature Update schedule details

When you configure a Windows Feature Update schedule, this page displays details about the schedule configuration and its status.

1.
Go to the Windows Feature Update Schedule Summary page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Security, then click Windows Feature Updates.
c.
On the Windows Feature Updates panel, click Schedules.
d.
Click the name of a Windows Feature Update schedule.
2.
Review the contents of the Configuration section.

Option

Description

Created

The date and time the schedule is created.

Modified

The date and time the schedule is last modified.

Last Run

The date and time the schedule is last run.

Name

A name that identifies the schedule. This name appears on the Windows Feature Update Schedules list page.

Action

The action associated with the schedule:

•
Detect: Scans for compatible Windows Feature Updates.
•
Detect and Stage: Scans for compatible Windows Feature Updates, and downloads the applicable files to the agent device for later deployment.
•
Detect, Stage and On-demand Deploy: Detects Windows Feature Updates that are installed or missing from managed devices, downloads the applicable files to the agent device, and causes the Windows system tray on the agent device to alert the user that the updates are ready for deployment. The user can then initiate the deployment process at their convenience.
◦
These schedules are only available for Windows devices with agents version 11.0 or later.
◦
The Agent Status Icon On Device option must be enabled in the agent communication settings. You can find these settings on the Organization Detail page, under Communication and Agent Settings (if one or more Organization components are enabled), or on the Communication Settings page (if you do not have an Organization component). For more information, see Configure Agent communication and log settings.
•
Detect and Deploy: Scans for compatible Windows Feature Updates, downloads the applicable files to the agent device, and deploys the update to the selected devices.

Description

A brief description of the Windows Feature Update schedule.

Devices

This field only appears when the schedule is configured to apply to all devices.

Windows Feature Update

The name and version of the Windows Feature Update.

Device Label

One or more Smart Labels associated with the devices against which the schedule runs. For more information, see Using Smart Labels for patching. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to apply to selected devices.

Device Name

One or more selected devices against which the schedule runs. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to apply to selected devices.

Detect Label

One or more Smart Labels associated with the scheduled updates. For more information, see Using Smart Labels for patching. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to detect selected updates.

Alerts

Detect and Deploy schedules only. The alerts displayed to users when update actions run:

•
OK: Run immediately.
•
Cancel: Cancel until the next scheduled run.
•
Snooze: Prompt the user again after the Snooze Duration.
* 
NOTE: Alerts are not available in Detect and Detect and Stage schedules.

Reboot

Detect and Deploy schedules only. The options for rebooting the managed device:

•
No Reboot: The device does not reboot even though a reboot might be required for the update to take effect. This option is not recommended because deploying updates without rebooting when required can leave systems unstable. Further, updates that require reboots are only shown as deployed after the reboot.
•
Prompt User: Waits for the user to accept the reboot before restarting the device. If the user snoozes or cancels the reboot, the update stops until a reboot occurs. Selecting a Snooze Duration in the agent dialog box that appears on the target device pauses the reboot prompt for the specified snooze interval.
•
Force Reboot: Reboots as soon as an update that requires it is deployed. Forced reboots cannot be canceled. Force Reboot works well for desktops and servers. You might not want to force reboot on laptops. Force Reboot works well with servers because they usually have no dedicated users. However, it is important to warn users that services will not be available when servers are being updated and re-booted. See Best practices for patching.

Schedule

The selected update schedule. Click View Task Schedule to see a detailed task scheduler. In the dialog box that appears, click a task to review the task details. For more information, see View task schedules.

Run on Next Connection in Offline

Indicates if the schedule runs the action the next time the managed device connects to the appliance, if the device is currently offline.

Delay Run After Reconnect

If configured, this option indicates the amount of time the schedule is delayed for. The time delay period begins when the update action is scheduled to run.

End After

If configured, this option indicates the maximum amount of time the schedule can run for. When this time limit is reached, any update tasks that are in progress are suspended.

You can use the appliance to manage device updates from Dell.

These updates include:

•
Software and firmware for servers
•
Software and firmware for client devices
•
Some Dell-supplied applications
* 
NOTE: Server and client devices refer to Dell server and client hardware, not to their server or client OS.

Any Dell devices that need to be updated must have the Dell Open Manage Inventory Agent installed, either the client or the server version, as applicable. This component is included in all Dell Updates by default and there is no need to add it manually. If the Dell Open Manage inventory client does not exist on a target device, it is installed during the first deployment process.

* 
NOTE: Dell hardware updates only work with the KACE Agent is 11.1 or higher. Older agent versions do not support this feature.

Run the Supported Dell Models report to see which Dell computers Dell Client Updates are supported for. See Running single-organization and consolidated reports.
