Heyho,
I am running in some kind of strange problem here and maybe you can help me.
We have a software that needs its updates to be installed fast and should not interrupt and/or install itself while the old version is running.
The idea was to deploy the .msi file and start installation after next reboot.
Since landesk seems not to be able to check for the boot sequence my choice was the policy supported push method called "Install at next login".
Now the problem: Depending on the settings (see below) the software installs immediatley or does not install at all.
I had no chance to create the wanted delay yet.
I can just guess that I am doing something wrong?
The delivery methods are marked as "(pre 9.60) settings. Are settings within the policies (in some cases) ignored now?
Would not make much sense imho, but asking wont hurt.
I also found some options within the agent settings.
For example at Distrribution-only settings -> When user chooses to defer package installation -> defer until next logon.
However it seems you can not define an automatic delay here.
Edit:
I just read within the configuration that delivery methods do not apply to base agents with v9.60 or higher.
That explaines a lot.
But in this case I have no clue how to shedule an automatic delay until next reboot or login in 9.60.
Usage of RunOnce registry keys makes no sense since they work for administrators only.
