    The settings can be configured using the admin console -> Software Library -> Software Updates -> Software Update Groups -> Deplyoment tab -> Properties of the deployment -> User Experience tab.

    It was in typo mistake in my question, It was not SrvMgr, It is ConfigManager 2012.(SCCM 2012),

    Here is my question again: We have PowerShell module which is using ConfigManager 2012.(SCCM 2012),for installing the Security Updates on Servers. Is there any option to Postpone the Server Reboot.

    I don't know about power shell script that you're using. But in native configmgr 2012, we can suppress or postpone the reboot.

    That script just triggers an action on the client itself. The client then acts according to the deployment settings (and that's where you can configure the reboot behavior)

    Thanks for the response Torsten.

    Now I have understood that we need to do the Deployment setting for reboot behavior.

    I have found below options in Software Center window. As I am very new to ConfigMgr 2012 , Can you point to to the exact location where we can make the reboot settings.
