Description

We've been getting the windows update notification window (attached screenshot) to restart our computer (after installation of updates). However, the button to restart it is grayed out and the notification to postpone the restart doesn't seem to work. This is on the Bastion Host Production server.

You may have to restart the server or our sessions for us since we don't have the option to do that.

I've forwarded the info to the CBIIT web team - who have the authorization to do this.

@CBIIT:

It would be ideal if this could be done after hours.

Thanks.

Thanks Jesse.

I'm also copying this to our lead users for distribution to other users.
