Each of these options has its own setting where you can specify the number of deferral days. This setting controls how long before future updates are made available to the device. In addition, you can set a grace period for minor Linux updates. When a minor update becomes available, this setting controls how long users can defer updates. As that grace period approaches its expiration, automatic reminders appear more frequently and eventually users can&#8217;t dismiss them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can save time by using JumpCloud\u2019s default patch policies and policy groups that are preconfigured and ready to use.
