I have seen bunch of scripts online but if someone has a working script which can deploy will be very helpful.
I am looking a script which checks the last reboot of the machines. Then it would check if the reboot occurred less than 7 days or not. If the user hasn't rebooted for more than 7 days, the script will restart their machines. They will receive a popup that their laptop will be restarting and also allows them to extend the time by few hours before the laptop restarts.
@egusman I used @atomczynski11's script above. We haven't implemented a 7-day reboot policy yet but wanted to make sure I had something ready. When I tested it, everything worked fine. After my device was online for over 7 days it fell into a smart group which I have my policy scoped to.
I was able to delay it if I wanted to or reboot it. I did change the delay options times in the script.
#!/bin/bash

### This is a JamfHelper Script which will be used to notify user if they have not restarted the computer in 7 days
### This script will give the user options how to proceed (now, 1 min, 5 min, 30 min 1 hr, 2 hrs as an example)
### This is needed as staff members tend not to restart their computers often
### This script is called from another script that checks uptime

### Using Jamf Helper is cool

I test with your script with self-service , after reboot , the status of this policy is pending not completed.
Can i know what is wrong with me?

Do you have the policy "Execution Frequency" set to "Ongoing". If so, that's probably why. If you have it available in Self Service for testing purposes only you can change the "Execution Frequency" to "Once per computer".

The policy only for per computer once time. But i will let user restart without immediately.
Another thing, because i would like everything is automation executed task.
A matching Machine > Smart Group (7days without Reboot) > Policy execute Reboot > Do Recon > Remove Smart Group.
In the policy i put the inventory but look like machine can not have the correct uptime because user select option delay 10' minutes reboot.
