Live Actions

Deep Freeze Cloud allows you to perform Live Actions on managed computers. The Live Actions are executed on the managed workstations in realtime.

 

The Live Actions are retrieved from Deep Freeze Cloud Console as follows: • 1 computer reporting to the Cloud Agent - 6 minutes • 2-9 computers reporting to the Cloud Agent - 3 minutes • >10 computers reporting to the Cloud Agent - 1 minute

Deep Freeze Cloud can execute Live Actions on the managed computers with the Cloud Agent which are executed immediately.

The managed computers check for updated policies based on the heartbeat specified in Cloud Agent Settings. This action is independent of the Live Actions.

 

Disabling Live Actions will cause all the live actions for all the products except Deep Freeze to stop working. It will also disable all the actions from the Deep Freeze Administrator Mobile app.
