Did those 'used to be' CM07 clients with a service window that got upgraded to Cm12? I had that as well. leftover service windows on former cm07 clients that got converted to "local"... but were sort of half behaving like a Business Hours Window and half behaving like a MP-applied service window.
Here's the first question: they might be the legit business hours window you get by default in CM12. (In which case that's fine). The way to confirm that is if each day is it's own GUID. If each day is the same GUID, then it's a stale one that you likely what to trash. Let me know... (while I go dig up the ConfigItem I used to delete the stale cm07 one...)

Whatever it is you are installing, if you cumulatively manually figure out the time you have set for "how long it might take to install this"... is it more than 3 hours? or even exactly 3 hours? It might not bother to try until there is a service window big enough. 2) (less likely) locally using Client Center, check if the box has local service windows applied... and it's basically locked out every time anyway; so nothing will ever install unless you check the override.

I think you are under a misconception. If a box is in a service window, based on ANY collection, ANYWHERE... it is in a service window. It's not "per deployment". It's "per machine". If you want a machine to ignore it's service window for any particular deployment, you need to check the box about ignoring a service window for that deployment.

The deployment collection does not have a maintenance window applied but logs show that the deployment is “ready” then “waiting for service window”. This is becoming very frustrating. Is there something that I am missing during the deployment configuration? I know these systems are part of another collection that have a 3 – 6am window but I am trying to deploy the software at that time anyway.
