[MacTUG] A deploystudio question

So my first deploystudio lab rebuild is going great! Steve & Ed, as you both said it is a great product.

One question, when it rebuilds and starts the restart process the “updating boot cache” message appears. (I can’t remember the exact syntax but you likely know the one.) However, On about 5-10% of the machines, after it is rebuilt it hangs during the restart.

A forced reboot via the power button seems to fix things. Am I likely looking at problems with this ‘slap on the side of the head’ approach? If it does not automatically restart after the message appears about the boot cache, should I rebuild the troublemaker(s)?
