The Encryption client di
splays the restart
prompt for five minutes each time. If the
user does not respond to the prompt, the
dialog is dismissed and next delay begins. If
the five
-minute timer expires and no restart
delays remain, the computer will restart
immediately.
Tip:
Calc
ulate 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 De
lays Allowed + 1]).
Number of Restart Delays Allowed
3
If
Force Restart on Policy Update is set to
Selected, this value is the number of times
the user can delay the restart. If this policy is
set to "0", the Encryption client will prompt
the user to restart immediately and will force
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.
