Please add an option to reboot after install updates

Please add an option to reboot after install updates

Postby ElEsteban » 23.12.2017, 00:05

Hello, I have seen the option /shutdown in DoUpdate.cmd, but I can add the /reboot option to FINISH_MODE. I use the /autoreboot option when installing updates and windows offline update restart when necessary, but can I add this option to restart when the Windows offline update completes its work? Thanks: D

Well, I don't know why you need this, but you can solve this yourself. Don't use /autoreboot, instead make use of wsusoffline\client\cmd\custom\FinalizationHook.cmd (rename from FinalizationHook.cmdt) where you can add something like this:
Code: Select all
@echo off
%SystemRoot%\system32\shutdown.exe /r /t 15 /c "Shutdown initiated by WSUS Offline Update"

Thank you, but can I make use of the FinalizationHook and the /autoreboot at the same time? This file must be in this place "wsusoffline\client\cmd\custom\" or must be in "wsusoffline\client\cmd\"?

I think that some updates that cant be installed along with other updates at the same time, need to use the /autoreboot option to continue installing...

I need the reboot opcion after install updates, because the computers I install some programs after the updates and I think they fail or ask for reboot because of a recently installed software...

Thank a lot ;)

This should work when you increase the timeout in the example above so that the /autoreboot option is executed before the FinalizationHook reboots the system.

This file must be in this place "wsusoffline\client\cmd\custom\" or must be in "wsusoffline\client\cmd\"?

The former.

Well, then reboot the system when the software has been installed correctly, perhaps even in an automated way. In general, the system doesn't need a reboot when WSUS Offline didn't install anything.
