Hi all

i set up a policy of caching OS X Yosemite.InstallESD.dmg, during to this dmg file is big enough, it usually takes over 15 mins to complete caching at user end. i found when user Mac goes to sleep, it will stop caching the dmg file. is there a way in policy setting to make it continue caching when the mac wakes up?

Is your Distribution Point set up as HTTPS/HTTP, SMB or AFP?
I think you should resolve the issue setting up the DP with HTTPS, allowing you to resume the download when the Mac is back online.

@Dalmatian moving to HTTP/S DP's (as @Jachk mentioned) allows for "resumable downloads"

Which should help.
