Schedule a regular Logitech Video Conferencing System reboot

Logitech has recently launched a firmware update, CollabOS-1.9.544, for the Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini devices. This firmware update includes many new features, one of which I am particularly interested in: the "schedule reboot" function that I have been eagerly waiting for.


Sometimes, the video collaboration bar experiences performance issues that can be resolved by manually rebooting it or using the Sync portal. However, with this release, you can now schedule a regular reboot at a time that is convenient for you.


If your device has CollabOS 1.8 or an earlier version, you will notice that the "schedule reboot" option is grayed out. However, you can manually reboot the box.



If your device has version 1.9.544 or higher, you will have the option to "Schedule reboot."



When you restart the device, you have the option to either wait until the ongoing meeting is over, reboot it regardless, or simply skip the reboot if it's currently being used.


If you're looking to assess device behavior and establish an SOP process, scheduling a reboot for each device individually can be helpful. However, if you're managing a large number of devices, this method can be inconvenient. In such cases, opting for bulk device management to schedule a reboot by device type is a more efficient option.





Unfortunately, Logitech does not offer a calendar option to select a specific date for scheduling a reboot. Instead, you can choose the desired day for the weekly reboot under the "reoccurrence" option.
