<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><span style="background-color:#d0d0d0;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">2. Via policy or remote, install the package.  As part of the same policy/remote action, force a reboot.</font></span></div>
