restart prompt for five minutes each
time. If the user does not respond to
the prom
pt, the prompt is dismissed
and next delay begins. If the five
-
minute timer expires and no restart
delays remain, the computer restarts
immediately.
Tip:
Calculate the maximum possible
delay as follows (a maximum delay
would involve the user responding to
each delay prompt immediately prior
to the 5
-minute mark):
(Number of Reboot Delays Allowed x
Length of Each Reboot Delay) + (5
minutes x [Number of Reboot Delays
Allowed + 1]).
Number of Restart Delays Allowed
3
If Force Restart on Policy Update is
set t
o Selected, this value is the
number of times the user can delay
the restart. If this policy is set to
"0", the Encryption client prompts
the user to restart immediately and
forces the restart if the user does
not acknowledge the prompt within
five minutes
.
If
Force Restart on Policy Updates
is
set to Not Selected, this policy is
ignored.
