When System Update is performing an automatic search through a proxy server
with authentication and no user name or password have been saved, no dialogs
will be displayed to the end user. An error will be logged to the System Update
logging file and System Update is shutdown. If the user name and password have
been saved, System Update will try to connect using the saved user name and
password information. If there are errors with the connection or performing the
automatic search, these will be logged to the System update logging file and
System Update is shutdown.

Whenever System Update is about to download and install a set of updates
containing one or more packages that require automatic reboot or shutdown of the
target system, no warning message is displayed informing the end user about the
reboot or /shutdown.

Note:

Command line scripts may be changed in future releases. If you use silent

command line scripts and a repository to store update packages, set the following
registry value to YES to recognize update packages with license agreements:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo\System Update
\Preferences\UserSettings\General\IgnoreLocalLicense
