### About the Restart after X Number of Days Parameter

The "Restart after x number of days of continuous uptime" parameter will force a device to restart once the set number of days of uptime has been reached.

### How It Works

When this Parameter is enabled, Iru Endpoint monitors continuous uptime. When the device reaches the number of days you set, it starts the restart notification and countdown described below.

### Enabling the Parameter

Once you are in the Parameters tab of the Blueprint you wish to edit and have enabled the "Restart after x number of days of continuous uptime" Parameter, follow these steps to complete the configuration:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set Restart Days">
    Input the desired number of days until forced restart.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Notifications">
    Optionally, click the bell icon to mute notifications for this Parameter.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save Configuration">
    Click **Save**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Restart Notifications

Users will receive a banner notification starting 5 days before the enforcement deadline. Clicking on the notification will open the Iru Endpoint Menu Bar App.

### Enforcement Deadline Reached

Once the enforcement deadline has been reached, the Iru Endpoint menu bar app will open, displaying a 30-minute countdown, giving the user time to close all programs and save their work. Users can defer the forced restart for an hour at a time, up to a maximum additional 24 hours past the deadline.
