Maintenance Schedule Exemptions
Exempted servers are servers that at the moment cannot be patched. Some of the exemptions are related to maintenance schedules.
- Maintenance Window Required - Servers without a maintenance window cannot be patched. In order to fix such an exemption, assign a maintenance window to the server.
- Awaiting Maintenance Window - The server has an assigned maintenance window, however it has not yet arrived. Once date & time of the schedule occurs, patching actions will start.
- Maintenance Window Expired - The server has an assigned maintenance window but the date & time have expired and the server cannot be patched. To fix such exemption, assign a valid maintenance schedule to server.
