I use this script in conjunction with a smart label that contains computer that have not been rebooted for more than 14 days but under 21 days.
-You can change this to whatever fits. I chose this because after bugging them for a week, I change the script to a reboot countdown.
SELECT
MACHINE.NAME AS SYSTEM_NAME,
SYSTEM_DESCRIPTION,
MACHINE.IP,
MACHINE.MAC,
MACHINE.ID AS TOPIC_ID
FROM
MACHINE
WHERE
((OS_NAME NOT LIKE '%server%')
AND (LAST_REBOOT < DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 14 DAY)
AND LAST_REBOOT > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 21 DAY)))
Then, We set up the script to notify the users...
Run As: Local System
CHECK: Allow run without logged in user
Launch a program...
Dir: $(KACE_SYS_DIR)
File: powershell.exe
Params: -sta -executionpolicy bypass -file "$(KACE_DEPENDENCY_DIR)\Reboot_Toast.ps1"
Do Not check: Wait for completion.
Here is the script:
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing")
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms") | out-null
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing") | out-null
$TimeStart = Get-Date
$TimeEnd = $timeStart.addminutes(360)
Do
{
$TimeNow = Get-Date
if ($TimeNow -ge $TimeEnd)
{
Unregister-Event -SourceIdentifier click_event -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Remove-Event click_event -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing")
Exit
}
else
{
$Balloon = new-object System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon
$Balloon.Icon = [System.Drawing.SystemIcons]::Information
$Balloon.BalloonTipText = "A reboot is required in order to complete Security patching. Please reboot at your earliest convenience."
$Balloon.BalloonTipTitle = "Reboot Required"
$Balloon.BalloonTipIcon = "Warning"
$Balloon.Visible = $true;
$Balloon.ShowBalloonTip(20000);
$Balloon_MouseOver = [System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventHandler]{ $Balloon.ShowBalloonTip(20000) }
$Balloon.add_MouseClick($Balloon_MouseOver)
Unregister-Event -SourceIdentifier click_event -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Register-ObjectEvent $Balloon BalloonTipClicked -sourceIdentifier click_event -Action {
Add-Type -AssemblyName Microsoft.VisualBasic
If ([Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::MsgBox('Would you like to reboot your machine now?', 'YesNo,MsgBoxSetForeground,Question', 'System Maintenance') -eq "NO")
{ }
else
{
shutdown -r -f
}
} | Out-Null
Wait-Event -timeout 7200 -sourceIdentifier click_event > $null
Unregister-Event -SourceIdentifier click_event -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$Balloon.Dispose()
}
}
Until ($TimeNow -ge $TimeEnd)You can edit the re-prompt time frame and length to your liking. Currently it prompts every 2 hours for 6 hours. The highlighted 360 is for the over all length and 7200 is the time (in seconds) between prompts.
Here are some screens:
