Agent Settings & Comms

HiPlease can someone let me know how often the agent pulls settings from the console?I’m having a spot of bother with changing the WSUS settings, as per the screenshot.I’m setting a number of patches to ignore, but something isn't quite right and the patches are redeploying, even though Automox is set to ignore them.These are the setting I'm desperately trying to update on the agents deployed (to block those broken windows patches).Cheers.

Mac OS updates not applying

Happy Holidays Automoxers!For some reason a majority of our mac endpoint are not receiving the Mac Big Sure updates to 11.6.1 or 11.6.2. Our user see the Automox System Update Notification, click now, and nothing seems to happen.Some of our users will eventually get the Automox Reboot notification window, but when they click on it, they are logged out instead of a restart. When we check the activity logs, we see that our mac endpoints have had all the apps as well as as Mac OS 11.6.2 update installed. However, when we go to check the OS version, we see nothing has been updated.We are using jamf pro, with filevault enabled, and jamf connect. Any advise would very much apprecaited!

Best method to force server reboots every month at end of maintenance window?

We have >1K servers that are distributed among ~50 different groups and policies that patch according to specific maintenance windows based on the application they run.Our policies allow the server to reboot if the patch being applied requires it, but I’d like ALL the servers to reboot at the end of the monthly maintenance window regardless of installing any patches.What’s the recommended way to implement this?

Tableau script to search for the latest version and update

Hi all,I use Automox to deploy software to our endpoints and one of our departments heavily uses an application called Tableau. Tableau regularly releases patch updates every few days/weeks, and i’d like to be able to run a scheduled worklet to search for the latest version and upgrade the application.At the moment, when a new version is released, we are downloading the latest file and uploading it into automox to run the following basic command: Copy-Item $uploadfile -Destination $saveFilePath    Start-Sleep -s 20        ###### Installing Tableau, if any errors will be added in the amagent logs ######        Try {           Start-Process -FilePath $saveFilePath -ArgumentList '/quiet', '/norestart', 'ACCEPTEULA=1', 'REMOVEINSTALLEDAPP=1' -Wait -PassThru            Write-Output " ... $uploadfile Install Finished..."   I was looking on the Github in chocolatey for tableau and found the following as the base for their package: chocolatey-packages/update.ps1 at master · meek2100/chocolatey

Large files generated by the agent

We have had problems with large files that are generated in the path C: \ ProgramData \ amagent in some cases we saw files of up to 120 GB. We do not know why the agent is taking this behavior, has this happened to someone else?

How do you indicate a worklet has failed?

Example. I want a worklet to start the print spooler driver if it is stoppedSo the Evaluation Code check to see if the spooler is stopped. If no Exit 0, if yes Exit 1Script finds the spooler is stopped move on to remediation codeThe remediation code starts the spooler, then double checks if the spooler is actually started….uh oh, the service still isn’t running. If I specify exit 1 in the remediation code, the script times out.What do I use to specify in the remediation code that the worklet failed so it shows up in the “Needs attention” report?
