We try to make every effort to test the live system. For example, we occasionally get false positive reports from customers who say that a machine is patched, yet Nessus is showing the machine to still be vulnerable because the machine STILL IS vulnerable, and requires a reboot. Are you asking to be able to scan for a machine that is in the state of needed to be rebooted?
