Remarks

Called by device owners or profile owners of an organization-owned managed profile to to set a local system update policy. When a new policy is set, #ACTION_SYSTEM_UPDATE_POLICY_CHANGED is broadcast.

If the supplied system update policy has freeze periods set but the freeze periods do not meet 90-day maximum length or 60-day minimum separation requirement set out in SystemUpdatePolicy#setFreezePeriods, SystemUpdatePolicy.ValidationFailedException will the thrown. Note that the system keeps a record of freeze periods the device experienced previously, and combines them with the new freeze periods to be set when checking the maximum freeze length and minimum freeze separation constraints. As a result, freeze periods that passed validation during SystemUpdatePolicy#setFreezePeriods might fail the additional checks here due to the freeze period history. If this is causing issues during development, adb shell dpm clear-freeze-period-record can be used to clear the record.
