Notify the User of Termination

Define the prompt that you want to display on the device. You can also specify different locales with different messages.

The ZENworks Agent automatically detects the locale of the operating system and displays the prompt defined in the same locale as the operating system locale. However, if the operating system locale does not match any of the specified locales, then ZENworks displays the prompt defined by the first locale in the list.

To create a message:

Click Add to display the Select Locale and Prompt dialog box.
Select a language from the Locale drop-down list. The message displays only on devices in the specified locale. You can create different messages, each with its own locale setting.
Specify the text you want to display on the device.

You can include {0} in your text to provide a running counter that counts down the number of seconds to 0, after which the prompt is auto-accepted. For example, you could specify the following text:

The application will terminate in {0} seconds. Please save your work.

The message displays for the number of seconds specified in the Seconds to be Displayed field.
Click OK.

To remove a prompt, select the check box, then click Remove.
