You can optionally use a desktop policy settings document
to enable Notes® Smart Upgrade
to function automatically, to deploy different releases of the Notes client to different groups
of users, to upgrade Notes clients
through several updates at one time, to automatically create and use
a Smart Upgrade Tracking Reports application, and to control when
updates occur in order to preserve server performance.
About this task
You can limit which kits specific users can see by populating
the Allowed Users and Servers field on the
Smart Upgrade kit document. A server can signal to a Notes client that a kit is potentially available,
but the Notes client may not
locate an available kit because the user's name has not been entered
in the Allowed Users and Servers field. Note: In
this scenario, the Smart Upgrade timer on the Notes client is incremented by one day.
