Event details
How about maintenance windows in Intune like we have in SCCM?

Additionally we have some software update scheduling options for macOS. It's not technically maintenance windows, but gives you more control over macOS software updates. Information here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/protect/software-updates-macos - Aria, thank you for that answer. The need for maintenance windows is to increase adoption and control deployments. We are a utility and we have 24x7 critical systems that need to be managed carefully so maint windows allows us to prevent installation and restart as needed, especially during storm events, when keeping the lights on is priority. Remember, Intune will be great if we can make it do what SCCM does:)
- Dave RandallAs Jason and Joe mentioned, it would be great to understand which scenarios and platforms you'd like to apply maintenance windows to. Software updates are common, but what others are important for your business?
- How do you manager deployments (apps or patching) that when delivered to a group can perform and reboot as expected but small audience only wants the job to be published and not run, simply make it available. Currently with maint windows, one job can do that, I know we can do 2 separate jobs but that is not ideal when doing 2 or 3 deployments per week and different groups have different window requirements, I hope that helps understand the situation.
