You don't have this box checked on your deployment by chance, do you?

Subject: [mssms] Maintenance Windows and reboots

I am still testing out using Maintenance Windows in our company for servers.

When we did our trial run, I noticed that not all the servers rebooted. Upon 
further inspection it looks like the updates that were applied did not need to 
reboot the server.

Just curious how others "force" a reboot (automatically), as it is always nice 
to reboot servers when you can, I was hoping that the MW would force a reboot 
regardless. But it seems once this happens I need to then go back in and see 
which ones did not reboot and manually do it.

We don't have a lot so it is not too bad, but I am trying to automate it as 
much as possible.

I don't have Orchestrator or anything that can do this. It would be nice I 
guess if you could force the reboot on the servers.

Any tips, tricks or suggestions.
