cPVAL Reboot Prompt Count

Summary

This custom field allows administrators to configure how the Reboot Pending Prompt solution behaves.

Specifies how many times a user will be prompted (allowed to defer) before the reboot becomes mandatory.

This setting is highly flexible and can be configured globally at the Organization level, and easily overridden at the Location or individual Device level as needed.

Configuration Hierarchy (Highest to Lowest Priority):

  1. Device Level (Overrides all lower levels)
  2. Location Level
  3. Organization Level
  4. Script Runtime Variable (Prompt Count - acts as the ultimate fallback default)
