About the Show on Top Option

When creating a deployment or a Mandatory Baseline item, you can define the Show on Top options. Theses options determine whether notifications for deployments or reboots display on top or on bottom of all other open endpoint windows.

There are two different Show on Top options:

• A Show on Top option for Deployment Notification Options • A Show on Top option for Reboot Notification Options

The following table describes the notification dialog behaviors for each option setting (Yes or No). Table 85: Always on Top Option Setting Description

Always on Top Option

Setting Notification Dialog Behaviour

Yes The deployment or reboot notification displays as the topmost window. All other open windows display behind it.

Managing Deployments and Tasks Always on Top Option

Setting Notification Dialog Behaviour

No The deployment or reboot notification displays as the bottommost window. All other open windows display in front of it.

Note: When sending a deployment or reboot notification for the first time, the

deployment or reboot notification displays as the topmost window (with the exception of some dialogs, such as Windows Task Manager). The notifications will display as the bottommost window in subsequent notifications.

Tip:

You can configure an agent policy to define the default Show on Top option setting for deployments and reboots when configuring a deployment or Mandatory Baseline. For additional information, refer to the following tasks: • Creating an Agent Policy Set on page 241
