Has anyone been able to get "prov.usercontrol" to actually Work on a VVX 300/400/500?
trying on 5.4.4 and 5.4.5 firmware with
prov.usercontrol.enabled="1" prov.usercontrol.postponeTime="00:15"
however when our phones poll the server for a new config file, which includes telling the phone which firmware file to use, they simply reboot without any prompt and then up/downgrade.
What has to happen in order to allow users to defer an upgrade/config change?
Solved! Go to Solution.

In your other response to a post the original poster had been asked to contact POLYCOM support. Have you yet done this?

For completeness, This has been resolved.
The issue on my side was ZTP.
From talking with our polycom sales engineer:
ZTP DOES NOT work with prov.userControl
-- this IS stated in the admin guide
ZTP is enabled by Default on every VVX phone leaving the factory
-- this was news to me.
I was under the impression that since we had not explicitly enabled ZTP that it would be off
So we have gone to Home - Settings - Advanced - Network- Provisioning -- (last line) and turned off ZTP and BOOM! prov.usercontrol works as expected.
to do this via your config file, you would add:
device.set="1" device.prov.ztpEnabled.set="1" device.prov.ztpEnabled="0"
as well as
prov.userControl.enabled="1" prov.userControl.postponeTime="01:00"
Had to post this, as I hate when i google an issue and find someone with the exact same problem who 'fixed it' but doesnt post their solution

Perfect, thanks!
hoping that you can excuse my not finding that page -
the subject of "Automatically check for configuration changes or new software versions" did not sound like it directly involved what I was looking for at the time.
have a great day!
EDIT: re-reading that page, you mention:
NOTE: Please be aware that if ZTP is being used this parameter is ignored!
However that sounds like "if you have manually enabled it", not "it is on by default and you have to explicitly turn it off to use prov.usercontrol"
