Friday night: log off but leave computer running

ITS have advised that they are sending out to our PCs a number of security upgrades. While this happens quite regularly, apparently this set will take quite a long time to install (1 – 2 hours).

Because of this they are suggesting that we leave our computers running on Friday night. If they are running, but logged off, then hopefully the patches will install over the weekend.

PCs such as the Dayend PC that normally are left logged-in can be treated as normal – but at some stage during the week, we’ll need to restart them.
