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

The name of the schedule.

Action

The action associated with the schedule:

•
Detect: Detects patches that are installed on, or missing from, managed devices. Detect-only actions are recommended when the Patch Download Settings are configured to download only . Running a detect-only action before the deploy creates a list of patch files to download before deployment begins.
•
Detect and Stage: Detects patches that are installed or missing from managed devices, and downloads patch files to the agent device for later deployment.
•
Detect and Deploy: Detects and deploys patches to managed devices. These types of actions are used when managing desktops and servers. Detect and Deploy patching jobs require a connection between the device and the appliance; they do not run offline. For more information about messaging protocol connections, see Configure Agent communication and log settings.
•
Detect, Stage and On-demand Deploy: Detects patches that are installed or missing from managed devices, downloads patch files to the agent device, and causes the Windows system tray on the agent device to alert the user that the patches 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.
•
Deploy: Deploys applicable patches to managed devices. This is useful when you know that specific patches need to be deployed to managed devices. A final Detect job runs either after the patch is deployed or, if a reboot is required, after the device reboots and the Agent reconnects to the appliance.
•
Detect and Rollback: Detects and removes unwanted patches from managed devices. Rollbacks may not be available for some patches. See Determine whether a patch can be rolled back.
•
Rollback: Removes unwanted patches from managed devices. Rollbacks may not be available for some patches. See Determine whether a patch can be rolled back.

Description

A brief description of the patch schedule.

Devices

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

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.

Patches to Detect

Detect schedules only. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to detect all patches.

Detect Label

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

Patches to Deploy

Deploy schedules only. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to deploy all patches.

Deploy Label

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

Patches to Rollback

Rollback schedules only. This field only appears when the schedule is configured to remove all patches.

Rollback Label

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

Alerts

Schedules without the Deploy action only. The alerts displayed to users when patch actions run:

•
OK: Run immediately.
•
Cancel: Cancel until the next scheduled run.
•
Snooze: Prompt the user again after the Snooze Duration.

Reboot

Schedules without the Deploy action only. The options for rebooting the managed device:

•
No Reboot: The device does not reboot even though a reboot might be required for the patch to take effect. This option is not recommended because deploying patches without rebooting when required can leave systems unstable. Further, patches 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, patching 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 a patch requiring 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 patched and re-booted. See Best practices for patching.

Schedule

The selected schedule details. 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 patch 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 patching tasks that are in progress are suspended.
