Supress reboot and let the agent do a inventory before reboot?

In ZENworks Configuration Management 10.3.1:
We've got a LAB zone where the agent is installed during the first boot before the userlogin(RunOnceEx in registry), it then continues into the Desktop where it does an inventory scan and gives a message that it will boot in 120 seconds. (2 minutes)

About 15 seconds before it boots, it sends its Inventory, which is what I want from it. (I dont know if its intentional or thats when its done processing)


Now, I've duplicated the LAB in every way I can see, but getting the agent to go further into desktop and do the inventory just before reboot in the same fassion is impossible. I either have to make a scripted reboot that waits untill the Pre-Agent is done(still does not do the inventory, so might aswell skip it), or let the agent autoreboot on its own by dropping the -x parameter from the launch. (I have -q -x as switches in LAB)

Any thoughts on how I might solve this?
