Notes

Client Issue

When a LANDesk package is pushed and there is a pending update, the SDCLIENTRECONNECT line is generated.

Once this line exists, no other packages can be pushed until one of two things happen:

#1 The machine is rebooted. Once rebooted, the SDCLIENTRECONNECT line is cleared and packages can be pushed.

#2 Add quotes around Program Files (x86), just like the other lines. When quotes are added, packages can be pushed.

 
Technical Problem

Missing quotes on the SDCLIENTRECONNECT line if forcing unnecessary reboots.

 
Solution

Add quotes to generated line.
