Hi,
is it possible to push a package (or update a package) without loginblocker kicking in, in other words without disturbing a session for the logged on user?
For instance to (sneaky) run a software inventory or to change a setting for an installed application?
So I don't want to disable loginblocker, I want to push a package silently.
Thanks,
Eric

Re: push package without disturbing logged on user?
Hi,
first of all, if you push an installation during a user is logged in, the loginblocker will not change to active state.
Have a look at silent_install-Event in opsi-client-agent.
But deploying software during a user is logged on the machine is a liitle bit tricky. If the user runs firefox for example and you will update the firefox, than you come in trouble. Therefor the packages must be handle this situations.

Re: push package without disturbing logged on user?
Hi ueluekmen,
thanks for your quick reply.
We recently upgraded to the latest version of opsi and have to upgrade some of the older clients (v4.0.2) first, but I will give it a try.
Also thanks for your heads up on script handling when installing package 'the silent way'.
Regard ,Eric
