Job Management Partner 1/Software Distribution Description and Planning Guide
This section provides notes on using the client control facility to shut down clients.
- When automatic shutdown is attempted for a Windows NT client, shutdown might fail or a restart might occur. This might be because the hardware or Windows environment does not support automatic shutdown. Check whether your hardware supports automatic shutdown. Execute the most recent update program provided by the hardware supplier to achieve conformity between Windows and the hardware specifications. If your hardware supports automatic shutdown but executing the update program does not solve the problem, consult the documentation provided by the hardware supplier or Microsoft.
- Shutdown specified for a relay manager or relay system is always ignored.
- A UNIX or Windows client whose version is 06-00 or earlier cannot be shut down automatically.
- A Windows NT client whose screen saver is on and is password-protected cannot be shut down automatically.
- A client cannot be shut down automatically if a file is being edited when the job specifying shutdown is received.
- If you execute a job specifying shutdown from a higher system and the client is in one of the following statuses, the specified operation will not be executed:
- A user is not logged on to the client.
- A non-Administrator user is logged on to the client and the Run the client with non-Administrator user permissions option was not selected during setup.
In these statuses, if a confirmation dialog box display time was specified in the client settings, the client will be shut down without displaying the confirmation dialog box. If the How long will the dialog be displayed? option is set to Unlimited, the client cannot be shut down.
Note that executing a job from a higher system does not include job execution from the client using the Package Setup Manager or the Execute Job Backlog icon.
- If a Send package, allow client to choose job with shutdown specified is executed from the Package Setup Manager of a client, the client will not be shut down until a user entry is made, in the same manner as when Unlimited is selected for the How long will the dialog be displayed? option, even if a time value was specified for the confirmation dialog box in the client setup.
- If clients are in the Windows XP Mode environment, it might not be possible to automatically shut them down in some cases. For details about how to control clients in the Windows XP Mode environment, see C.2(2) Notes on job management in the Setup Guide.
