Schedule a policy package install
In FortiManager v5.0 Patch Release 5 or later, you can create, edit, and delete install schedules for policy packages. The Schedule Install menu has been added to the Policy Package right-click menu. You can specify the date and time to install the latest policy package changes. When a scheduled install has been configured and is active, an icon is displayed beside the policy package name. You can click this icon to edit or cancel the schedule. Once the scheduled install has completed, the icon will disappear.
