Windows Update Orchestrator Fix - Rename File to Reboot.Bak

Summary

This script is set up as the autofix for the Update Orchestrator Service Status Detection monitor. This script will rename the "reboot" file so the update orchestrator will not issue a reboot to the machine. This will prevent the update orchestrator from installing patches on the endpoint without prior approval. This script is a function script and it will not run manually.

Time Saved by Automation: 5 Minutes

Sample Run

This script is a function script and cannot be run manually. It should only run as an autofix for the Update Orchestrator Service Status Detection monitor.

Dependencies

Variables

@Output@ - the output from the PowerShell that renames the file.

Process

The monitor will check for the condition, and this script will automatically execute. The script will take the "reboot" file in the UpdateOrchestrator folder and rename it to "reboot.bak". It will then verify that the results of the PowerShell were successful. On success, the script will exit with a log message indicating the file was renamed. On failure, the script will exit with an error and a log message stating that the file rename failed.

Output

Script log messages only.
