Hi!

When I manage a local machine, under "Options", "Machine options", "Additional settings" there is an option either to "Stop running tasks and shut down" or to "Wait for task completion" (image attached).

As it is still not possible to manage local machine options from my Management Server, I want to write a script to set this option via GPO on all my clients.

Does anymore know where this configuration is stored?

We are using B&R11 Advanced Workstation Build 17440, Clients on Win7 x64, Management Server on Win2008R2 x64.

Thanks & Cheers,
Tom

It's stored in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Acronis\MMS\Configuration\Protection]
in value "CurrentConfiguration"
It's a base64-encoded data, after decoding it turns out to be an XML. There are
SuppressMachineRebootOnRunningTask tags with either 0 or 1 between them which correspond to this option.
So you need to stop mms service, get this value, decode it from base64 to xml, then probably the most easy way is to remove all newlines and whitespaces, replace [SuppressMachineRebootOnRunningTask]0[SuppressMachineRebootOnRunningTask] to 1 , then encode and store in registry. If you don't need to preserve the rest of the settings then just store the same value importing the same reg file on all machines.
