What is Emergency Remediation Plan (zero-day remediation)

From time to time you would want to patch your environment outside of your regular patching cycle due to:

1. Fix zero-day vulnerability.
2. Deploy a critical patch for your environment.
3. Deploy a patch that failed in the previous patching cycle.
4. Meet the expected SLA.

How to configure Emergency Remediation Plan

Create a Maintenance Schedule

JetPatch will execute the Remediation Plan on a predefined Maintenance Schedule.

If the Maintenance Schedule does not exist in JetPatch you can create it in Maintenance Schedules.

Assign Emergency maintenance for a Remediation Plan

In the first section of a Remediation Plan, you can mark the "Emergency remediation plan" check box.

After configuring the actions "Approve Patches" and continue to the "Create Cycle" step, a new column "Emergency Maintenance" will appear in the shown table.

Click on a relevant Endpoint Group and choose a Maintenance Schedule from the list.

Note: If you want to exclude certain endpoints from the emergency remediation plan, feel free to suspend those endpoints.
