Advanced options in IT automation profiles (scan and reboot window)
Support told me that new updates on servers will be searched at the start of the IT automation profile which leads to
- higher bandwidth usage
- more time for applying patches
- reboot time which may is outside of customer's window
What we need:
Scan window: set time window for scanning (e.g. on day of patching in the morning/afternoon)
Patch window: set time window for the execution of the patches
Reboot window: window for rebooting (last reboot no later than X:YY)

A time variation option to avoid high bandwidth usage at a single site. Vary by x minutes or hours.
Options WHEN to download updates vs during update process. Could download at a specific time of day with some time variation. -

More than 9 months gone and no further information on what's going on with this idea and others from automation profiles.
These advanced options are still a must-have. Other RMMs are ahead of Atera, again.
