Munki 2 - Add RestartAction Information to Application page #331

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
If an item requires any RestartAction, it would be very helpful if MSC showed 
this information on the Application page.

Given that my other issue won't be fixed, perhaps this could be an option.

Attached is a screenshot that will showcase the places where it might work.

It does! Or at least it has in the past!

It definitely isn't now. I noticed it on my pre-production server and confirmed 
it on my home setup.

Good to know you want it to though!

Subtask: optional_installs listed in InstallInfo.plist do not have 
RestartAction information, and therefore no information to communicate before 
an updatecheck/download run. We can probably add that information. BUT:

If an optional_install item (that does not require a restart) itself has a 
"requires" item or an "update_for" item that _does_ require a restart or 
logout, the user will not be warned of the need to restart or logout until 
_after_ the update check and download happen.

The subtask definitely needs to be added. Speaking for myself, half of my repo 
has now gone from managed to optional.

The latter is perhaps something that should be figured out for Munki 2.1 (or 
whatever). Maybe by then I can help.

Note this is not a change to MSC.app, but an update to the command-line tools 
so they provide the appropriate info to MSC.app
