Specify the Boot Level after Execution Property

You can set the Boot Level after execution property to the Shutdown machine after last job option while performing the following tasks, so as to reflect the property in the job options of an SD job:

• While creating a software package in the Software Package Library of SD

  When you are creating a procedure for a software package, you can set the property in the Options tab. So, the property is applicable whenever the software package is deployed using this procedure.

• While creating a software policy

  When you are creating a software policy, you can configure each software package that is included in the policy to have the Shutdown machine after last job option set in the job options (Jobs, Procedure Options tab).

• While setting up a job order

  When you are setting up jobs that are distributed to the domain managers from the enterprise manager, you can configure each individual package to have the Boot Level after execution property set to the Shutdown machine after last job option (Jobs, Procedure Options tab).

• While creating a software deployment job

  When you are creating an ad-hoc SD job, you can set the Boot Level after execution property to the Shutdown machine after last job option (Jobs, Procedure Options tab).

The following example procedure explains how you can specify this option for a new software policy:
