How to Protect an Update Using UpdateInProgress

This section describes the steps required to protect an update when using the UpdateInProgress package:
Create a bundle containing the following:
1.
The SB1SaveCalibration package - The Force Install option should not be set for this deployment step
so the package is skipped if it is already present on the SB1.
The UpdateInProgress package - This package can optionally be customized, if desired. See
Customizing the UpdateInProgress Package on page
this deployment step so the package is deployed even if it is already present on the SB1.
Deployment steps to perform whatever update is desired.
The EndUpdateInProgress package - The Force Install option should be set for this deployment step
so the package is always deployed even if it is already present on the SB1.
Create a policy or action to deploy the bundle.
2.
When a job to execute the bundle from step 2 is executed, a dialog box displays on the SB1 screen
when the UpdateInProgress package is installed. The dialog box re-displays even following cold boots
that occur during the update. The dialog box is removed when the EndUpdateInProgress package is
installed.
