Immediately Applying Policies to Client Computers
If a policy execution schedule does not meet your needs, you can force policies to be sent immediately from DeviceLock Enterprise Server to client computers. This server-push mode is also designed to be used in scenarios with agents that were not previously configured to use the DeviceLock Enterprise Server policy. For more information, see
Policy Application Scenario 2.
To send policies to client computers immediately
1. Open DeviceLock Management Console and connect it to the computer running DeviceLock Enterprise Server.
2. In the console tree, expand DeviceLock Enterprise Server.
3. Under DeviceLock Enterprise Server, expand Policies, and do one of the following:
•Right-click the desired policy object, and then click Deploy Now.
Doing so will force the policy from the selected policy object to be sent immediately to the client computers assigned to the policy object. If the computers from the selected policy object are also defined in other policy objects, a resultant policy from those policy objects will also be forced to be sent to the computers.
- OR -
•Select the desired policy object. In the details pane, right-click any computer assigned to the policy object, and then click Deploy Now.
Doing so will force the policy from the selected policy object to be sent immediately to the selected client computer. If this computer is also defined in other policy objects, a resultant policy from those policy objects will also be forced to be sent to the computer.
