The Planning tab of a reboot window

Reboot windows allow for a better control of when devices can be rebooted. The hourly slots are represented in the visual form of a spreadsheet. Each slot or cell represents the reboot permission of one hour of the week. By consulting this planning, agents know if they can reboot a device at the requested time. If no reboot window is assigned to a device, reboots are always allowed. Whenever a reboot window is assigned to a device, a message displays in the reboot log file.

Any modification to a reboot window, planning, name, UTC time, pauses its assignment and to apply the modifications the window must be reactivated.

A device or group can be assigned to more than one reboot window. However, combining reboot windows follows the most restricted settings rule, so if you assign more than one window make sure they have at least one allowed slot in common, otherwise the target is never rebooted.
