The Action - Terminate Application Prompt dialog box lets you configure a prompt to notify users before the application terminates, including the number of seconds to notify the user, the number of times the prompt retries, and different messages for different locales.
Seconds to be Displayed
Specify the number of seconds that the prompt is displayed before the action is performed. For example, suppose you configure a prompt to notify the user that an application is in the process of terminating. If you specify that the prompt display for 10 seconds, the prompt displays for 10 seconds, then the application terminates.
Number of Retries Allowed
Specify the number of times the prompt displays before performing the next action.
Prompt the User to Save Any Unsaved Data
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 to display the dialog box.
-
Select a language from the drop-down list. The message displays only on devices in the specified locale. You can create different messages, each with its own locale setting.
-
Type the text you want to display on the device.
NOTE:On a Macintosh and a Linux device, the new line character does not work. To display a message on a new line, you must use a <br> tag before the message.
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 field.
