In Fleet you can enforce OS updates on your macOS and Windows hosts remotely.

Enforce OS updates

You can enforce OS updates using the Fleet UI, Fleet API, or Fleet's GitOps workflow.

Fleet UI:

Head to the Controls > OS updates tab.
To enforce OS updates for macOS, select macOS and set a Minimum version and Deadline.
For Windows, select Windows and set a Deadline and Grace period.

Fleet API: API documentation is here.

End user experience

macOS

End users are encouraged to update macOS (via Nudge).

	> 1 day before deadline	< 1 day before deadline	Past deadline
Nudge window frequency	Once a day at 8pm GMT	Once every 2 hours	Immediately on login

If an end user was on vacation when the deadline passed, the end user is given a grace period (configured) before the host automatically restarts.

Fleet enforces OS updates for quality and feature updates. Read more about the types of Windows OS updates in the Microsoft documentation here.
