ENTERPRISE

Introduction

This  white  paper  provides  detailed  instructions  to  set  up  a  Deep  Freeze  Maintenance  Period  and 

perform updates that require a user to be logged on to the computer.
Normally, Deep Freeze can perform any updates on the workstation because it has local system privileges, 

but when the updates are allocated on servers that require authentication access, an autologon script 

must be run.

Setting up a Scheduled Maintenance Period

There are two ways to set up a scheduled Maintenance Period. 

1.  Set it up when configuring the Deep Freeze Enterprise installation files with the Configuration 

Administrator. This is the best method for new deployments. 

2.  Create or update the Maintenance Period using the Enterprise Console.

Creating and Updating the Maintenance Period

The  following  instructions  elaborate  on  how  to  create  or  update  a  Maintenance  Period  with  the 

Enterprise Console, assuming Deep Freeze has already been deployed throughout the network.

1.  Open the Enterprise Console. Select any workstation and right-click on it. 
2.  Select 

Update Embedded Events 

from the contextual menu. Or, select the desired workstation(s) 

and click the 

Update Embedded Events

 icon in the toolbar. .

3. A menu bar with six buttons appears at the bottom of the 

Workstations

 window.

4. Click 

New

 to create a new sub-configuration set.

The 

Configuration Screen

, similar to the Configuration Administrator, appears containing a 

sub-configuration set of 

Embedded Events

 and 

Maintenance

.

Embedded Events 

tab and configure the options as desired.
