ForceReboot

Command-line | Registry

 

RebootIfRequired is responsible for end-user prompts about a required reboot. If ForceReboot is True and the default response to the prompt dialog is to reboot, the prompts are modified to prevent the end-user from vetoing a reboot.

 

This setting determines the type of reboot (forced or polite) initiated by RayManageSoft Unified Endpoint Manager after that prompt:

 

If set to True, RayManageSoft Unified Endpoint Manager performs a forced reboot. This suppresses any user interaction required to close down other applications that may be running which means that unsaved work may be lost.

If set to False, RayManageSoft Unified Endpoint Manager performs a polite reboot. This offers end-users the opportunity to save work and close down other applications before continuing with the reboot.

 

If the desktop is locked, the installation and the adoption agent use ForceRebootIfLocked instead of ForceReboot. For details about how this setting works in combination with other installation settings to determine the appropriate reboot action, see Reboot Options.
