Maintenance Windows

Recommended Posts

members of the fourm.

I have recently started to mange servers in my enterprise. At the moment CM is managing updates only on the server farm.

Have a couple of questions basically:

 

  • I have configured the ADR to supress the restart on servers. This works as it is supposed to, but will the servers be able to pull down next months ADR if the previous months ADR does require a restart of the servers to finish off the updates? my initial thinking is NO, they will not be able to pull any new policies until the restart has taken place. Would I be correct?

 

  • There is a feature in the maintenance windows "Apply this schedule to". Would it not be a good option to be able to set a maintenance window of zero minutes and apply it to the Task sequence option? This would cut down on the threat of accidentally deploying an OSD task sequence to servers for users that do not OSD servers and would be just an extra layer of security....just incase... Maybe there is a valid reason as to why you can't have a zero minute window on collection and apply it to task sequences?

There are of course other ways and means to prevent this by specifying OS architecture, task sequence and DP passwords etc.. but suppose I am just curious..
