#21998
While looking through this I noticed a few other issues:
1. We seem to be inconsistent about what time we pick for OS update
deadlines. For profiles [it's noon local
time](2e5bf75b6d/ee/server/service/mdm.go (L1096)),
while for Nudge [it appears to be 4am...server time or
UTC](2e5bf75b6d/server/fleet/nudge.go (L53-L57))?
#9013 also mentions "noon UTC-8/Pacific Standard Time", which is neither
of the above (and means that, if implemented as spec'd, the deadline
would shift by an hour during DST), while docs prior to this PR
mentioned 4am UTC-8. Maybe we don't care enough to fix the Nudge
behavior since macOS 14 (which no longer requires Nudge) came out over a
year ago, but we should at least agree on desired behavior for DDM and
document that (which is what I've done for iOS/iPad OS since they don't
use Nudge).
2. The [REST API
docs](2e5bf75b6d/docs/REST%20API/rest-api.md (L1720-L1757))
don't seem to match the description of macOS behavior in the article;
the former indicates that OS updates pop up with increasing frequency
post-deadline, rather than having an impassible dialog. This may be
because behavior changed from Nudge to DDM, but iOS/iPadOS got
copy-pasted from the macOS REST docs and they never used Nudge. My guess
is that we should describe DDM behavior here.
Tagging in @mna as he looks to have implemented DDM OS updates so should
have some context here, and @noahtalerman to confirm desired behavior,
particularly on the deadline side.
