SL7 desktop reboots

If you have a DICE SL7 desktop you will be prompted to reboot over the next few days. This is required to make an important configuration change which can only be safely applied at boot time. We understand that reboots can be very inconvenient so you can be assured that we will only ever schedule reboots which we consider to be essential.

Student lab machines are not affected. For office machines the delay will be 5 days. Although the reboots are delayed, it would be greatly appreciated if people could manually reboot their machines at their earliest convenience; the delayed reboot would then be cancelled.

If you have any queries they should be submitted via the Support Form.
