To work around the pending restart status problem I’ve been having in the automation plan, I created a baseline to include in the following order in it’s own component groups and have checked the box “Baseline will be relevant on applicable computers where this component is relevant”.
- restart endpoint and wait for restart to complete
- restart endpoint on pending restart and wait for restart to complete (2nd reboot, if needed)
- restart endpoint on pending restart and wait for restart to complete (3rd reboot, if needed)
- Reset “Pending Restart” task (if it still has a pending restart status to reset the registries)
My question is, will this evaluate and execute based on relevance for each of the components group in order meaning it’ll reboot on #1, once the server is back up, it’ll go to #2 and evaluate to see if it still has a pending restart status, and if so, execute another reboot, etc…?
