System Status
Utility
Allows you to launch a ZENworks services heartbeat check prior to closing the
installation program. Results are posted in the installation log.
Rebooting (or
not)
Upon a successful installation, you can select between rebooting immediately or later:
 Yes, Restart the System: If you select this option, log in to the server when
prompted. The first time you log in to the server, it takes a few minutes because
the database is being populated with inventory data.
 No, I Will Restart the System Myself: If you select this option, the database is
immediately populated with inventory data.
NOTE: This option is displayed only for Windows devices.
The process of populating the database can cause high CPU utilization during
rebooting or immediately after the installation program closes if you select not to
reboot. This database updating process can slow down the starting of the services
and access to ZENworks Control Center.
The Patch Management downloads might also cause high CPU utilization, usually
shortly after rebooting.
