Deploying Software Updates Using Configuration Manager
In this post we will see deploying software updates using configuration manager 2012. Software updates in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager provides a set of tools and resources that can help manage the complex task of tracking and applying software updates to client computers in the enterprise.
In Part 1 we saw the installation of Active Directory Domain Services. In Part 2 we created the AD container and delegated the permissions on it. In Part 3 we installed pre-requisites for SCCM server. In Part 4 we installed SQL server, updated the service pack and cumulative update patch. In Part 5 we installed WSUS server role, Configured the firewall to add exceptions to allow the Client Push, Open the SQL ports 1433 and 4022. In Part 6 we installed the SCCM 2012. In Part 7 we saw how to configure Discovery and Boundaries. In Part 8 we installed few site system roles. In Part9 we created and configured custom client device settings, user device settings and deployed configuration manager client agent.
Before we deploy the software updates to our systems, we need to update the Intranet Microsoft update service location by creating a policy and linking it to our domain. We will create a separate policy named “Windows Update Policy”.
From the Domain Controller, Open Group Policy Management Console. Lets create a GPO and link it to Domain. The name of the policy is Windows Update Policy. Right Click the policy and edit.
From the Group Policy Management Editor, Navigate to Computer Configuration, Policies, Administrative templates, Windows Components, windows update.
Double click the setting “Specify Intranet Microsoft Update Service Location“. Click Enabled and in the options provide the Server name with HTTP as prefix for both intranet update service and intranet statistics server.
Note : During the configuration of WSUS if you had selected “Create a windows SUS 3.0 SP2 Website” then provide the name of SCCM server along with port number.
For example : http://Server.domain.com : 8530.
Click on the setting Configure Automatic Updates, Enable the setting by clicking on Enabled. Under Options choose Auto Download and Schedule the Install under configure automatic updating. Schedule the installation of updates Everyday at 14:00 (You can choose your own schedule time).
Now lets create a collection of computers to which we can deploy the updates. In our lab we have a single computer named CLIENT.PRAJWAL.LOCAL, we will create a Device collection and add all windows 7 computers to the device collection.
To create a Device Collection, Right Click Device Collections and Create Device Collection.
Click on Browse and Select All Systems as Limiting collection.
We will add a Query Rule to group the computers into a collection. Based on this Query the windows 7 computers will be added to the collection.
In the Query Rule Properties, Name the query as “Windows 7 Query“. Let the Resource class be System Resource. Click Edit Query Statement.
On the Select Attribute Window, click the Drop down list and select Operating System as Attribute Class and Attribute as Caption. Click OK. Choose the operator as “is like” and value as %windows 7%. click OK thrice and click Next.
The device collection has been created successfully. Click Close.
Lets configure the Software Update Point. Note that we have to select the Products for which the Updates will be downloaded. Under Sites, click Settings, Configure Site Components, Select Software Update point.
We will choose windows 7 here. Click OK.
To Synchronize the software updates, Click Software Updates from the bottom left pane, Right click All Software Updates and click Synchronize Software Updates“.
Click Yes to initiate site wide synchronization of software updates.
we can see the synchronization log by opening wsyncmgr.log located in C:Program FilesMicrosoft Configuration ManagerLogs.
Wait for few minutes, once synchronized you can see the updates. We will not deploy all the updates, we will now filter the updates by adding criteria. Click on Add criteria. Select Product, Expired, Bulletin ID and Superseded. click Add.
Choose the product as Windows 7, Bulletin ID as MS, Expired as NO, Superseded as NO.
We will save the search criteria by clicking “Save Current Search” at the top menu. Save is it with any name you wish. Click OK.
Now Select all the updates (hold Shift+page Down) , right click on the updates and click Create Software Update Group and name it as Windows 7 Software Update group.
We will download the updates and store it in a folder. Select all the Updates from Windows 7 Software Updates and Right Click and click download. In the Download Software Updates Wizard we will create a deployment package. A software update deployment package is the vehicle used to download software updates to a network shared folder, and copy the software update source files to the content library on site servers and on distribution points that are defined in the deployment.
Creating a Deployment Package – Provide a name to the deployment package. We will name it as Windows 7 Update Deployment Package. Now we need to store the updates in a folder so i have created a folder on other drive called Updates. we will use this folder to store all the updates. Inside the Updates folder we will create another folder called Win7 to store only windows updates. Click Next.
Click on Add and select your Distribution Point. Click Next.
Set the Distribution Priority as Medium. Click Next.
Choose Download Software Updates From Internet. click Next.
The wizard will now download the updates from internet. This will take some time depending on connection speed and the updates selected.
To deploy the software updates, click on Software Update Groups, right click Windows 7 Software Update Group and select Deploy.
To deploy the updates to a collection, click on Browse and select All windows 7 Computers. Click Next.
Choose the type of Deployment as Required and Detail Level as Normal. Click Next.
Select the time as UTC, Select the software available time as As soon as possible, installation deadline as As soon as possible. click Next.
Under device restart behavior, suppress the restart for workstations.
Click Generate an alert when following conditions are met. Enter the client compliance value as 90. click next.
Under Deployment Options select Download Software Updates from Distribution Points and install. click Next.
The Deploy software updates wizard has deployed the updates to the target. In our case it is targeted on a Collection “All windows 7 computers“. click close.
The updates have been downloaded and will be deployed to the collection.
Hi Prajwal.
Can i have list of services or parameters to monitor the health check of SCCM environment?
HI Prajwal,
i am trying to download patches but internet is not available. so i downloaded patches in remote location and while downloading i am giving the network share instead of internet. but still not downloading and throwing error specified path not found.
Check folder permissions and ensure the folder path is correct.
Hi Prajwal. I like reading all your posts as they are very informative. However, my understanding is that the only group policy setting to configure is the ‘Configure Automatic Updates’ set to ‘disabled’. The SCCM client should configure the rest for you. On a client, run ‘gpupdate /h ‘ and then open that file. You’ll see that any other necessary settings are automatically configured and will appear to be set by “local group policy”.
Good Day Sir!
I would like to inquire if it is possible to update my sccm clients to update thru microsoft update not in my distribution point server?
This is my scenario:
I have remote clients which is connected to my SCCM 2012 SP2 server thru vpn connection. I would like to set ADR to those client to update without using my Distribution Point but instead they will go to microsoft website update. In short I want SCCM to trigger the update to the client but the client will get it to microsoft website.
I hope that I explain it to you clearly. Hoping for your help
Thanks in advance,
Sinecio
Does this scheme acts on the client side using standard Windows Update service in the down level?
What if clent WU service forced to Disabled?
Software not getting download – Error_ Failed To Download Content_ The Processing is Not In Background Processing Mode. related .cab file can download without any issue.
Hi Prajwal,
This might be a real dumb question. I’m new to SCCM and would like to know if the patching could be done in SCCM 2012 without group policy?
Group policy doesn’t come into picture when you are deploying updates via SCCM. You can disable the configure windows updates settings and let SCCM take care of windows deployment.
How to get the report and to see how many machines got updated with latest patch…In my case am generating the report called Enforcement state for deployment…but in this report every month i will get some 100 machines with enforcement state unknown….can you let me know what is this enforcement state mean and will this machines get update automatic or so we need to go and update one by one manually…or is there any other report where i can get compliance report……

Hi Praveen, could you also post your question here – https://www.prajwaldesai.com/community
Hi, Prajwal!
I have all adjusted as it’s written in article, except I did not adjust a group policy.
Such problem: I cant deploy updatings on a collection.
All the clients were reporting a status of “unknown” for all the updates. Did you have a similar problem sometime or can you advise something?
Thanks in advance
Hi, the group policy is not required. SCCM will take care of deploying updates. You can refer this post – https://www.prajwaldesai.com/deploy-software-updates-using-sccm-2012-r2/
FYI… You don’t need a group policy for this. The sccm client will tell the remote computer where windows updates are coming from. You don’t even need to configure a patch time. You do that via a maintenance window.
Hi Prajwal.
This is a wonderful post and very helpful. The only question I have is where/how can I see the listing of clients that were successfully updated by given update push?
Thanks.
Darla
You may have answered this on already but i’m confused as to why you need to configure the GPO. It seems if you are Deploying the updates to the machine then why does it need to look at WSUS for updates?
Hi Stephen, the WSUS GPO is not required if you are using SCCM to deploy updates. While I was creating the post I had tested the updates deployment keeping WSUS GPO in place and it had worked fine.
I have to thank you for the efforts you have put in penning this site.
Hi,
Great articles. Really usefull information. I’ve been following your articles whenever I got stuck in my SCCM 2012 R2 deployment. There is one thing that I could not figure it out though. I hope you have the answer for me and I’ll greatly appreciate it if you can let me know.
Regarding the WSUS management… My WSUS deployments working fine. I’ve already approuved all of the required updates in my domain. When I deploy a new computer in domain, I install right away all of the approuved updates on it. After that, just to try it, I ask Windows 7 to look for updates from Microsoft online instead of my WSUS server and it finds bunch of other security updates….
I’ve noted thoses security updates that would not appear in my SCCM updates console and I am trying to find a way to include theses updates in my WSUS. I hope I was clear enough.
I would really appreciate if you can point me out to the right direction as this issue starts to bug me!
Thanks in advance.
@Kubilay – Your answer is here :- http://blogs.technet.com/b/sus/archive/2008/07/02/wsus-so-why-do-updates-offered-on-windows-update-differ-from-those-wsus-reports-as-needed.aspx
Thanks for sharing info. I truly appreciate your efforts.
Thanks for Reply.
Well, Ports 8530 & 8531 they are not using . As default 80 only. if i go by web page, it works fine
As default for windows 2008 R2 , SUP ( 80 & 443) , now as testing i Changed to 80 & 80 But no luck.
If i try to do again Exlude (it was old settings working fine) my proxy settings for SCCM will it work..?, & consider your ports settings as well (default for windows 2012 server ) & get back to you.
Best Regards,
Arshad
Hi Prajwal,
on My SCCM 2012 Wuahandler.log. below Error
Unable to read existing resultant WUA policy. Error = 0x80070002.
All my client unable to take updated from WSUS after done the proxy settings . on My SUP settings both port configure to 80.
MS update to WSUS 3.0 fine. Also on Domain GP Port 80 as well as SCCM URL Define , we having other domain only BDC
I would like to know why clients are not able to take the updates from WSUS 3.0. Please Give your Inputs.
Best Regards,
Arshad
can you try changing the ports to 8530 and 8531 ?
Hi Prjawal,
Thanks for your quick Response.
I agreed with you that log file shows us proxy Credential Required. Couple of weeks Back Our Network admin included SCCM 2012 sp1 to Proxy authentication Before it was excluded , Later I had issue with wsus & sup then I added to proxy both Role working fine.
For AI & Reporting Service not added myself to proxy, it was working since 2 days Back Dated
(10/2/2014). Then it display with error as earlier post . (Last week works because it was on the cache…?)
Before posting this log, I try to check this proxy option I am not able to see
(1)Asset Intelligence I can see Synchronization option , port 443 without Highlighted & Browse path Located empty for the Certification
SCCM account with ASSET Intelligence Privileged.
So how can to see the proxy option AI, Please give me the link or screen shot
Last option is to remove the R ole of AI & add it again. Then maybe we find the proxy option while we configuring the same.
(2)Also for Reporting service Same, I can see SCCMadmin account. & SQL database path.
But I am not able to remember all the options & anywhere not see proxy option for both.
Last options to me add/remove & then proxy while configuring.
So how can to see the proxy option also Report role Service, Please give me the link or screen shot
Thanking You

Arshad

Hi Prajwal,
Thank you for all Your Reply . Well ,I checkd the your Ms link Regading Ports config.
Again i will try why not synchronize with SUP. If not later i will fresh installation of WSUS 3..0 & SUP Role . Define as defualt website port 80 as our IT Head told this port as no issue as we tested . Shall i remove both Hotfix of wsus.30 as well …is necessary to remove & add..?
( All task now i will do it from the old snapshot without windows update ). If you having any Inputs , kindly Post it .
If You dont Mind, I suggest you that, keep this current Background for your Webpage .(I feel faster,friendly & Comfortable View)
Best Regards,
Arshad
Yes remove the hotfixes and uninstall the WSUS. Install it back along with hotfixes. Let me know if it still doesn’t sync..
Hi prjawal,
while setup wsus 3.0 sp2, i will taken as default website (recommended ) port it will take 80.
different web site take port as 8531 correct. so both try change not synchornzing with sup
so again keep port 80 both the case for default website (port 80, & ssl 80), . ..?
kindly let me know the command for test the ports
Example: Telnet 172.17.28.117 Port : 8531 or other port etc Right..?
Regards,
Arshad
My version wsus 3.0 with sP2 (WSUS30-KB972455 X64 SP2) with two hotfix as recommanded
port 8530 & ssl option : 8531 (sup properties)
Please mention me which port need now 8080 & 8080 ..? i try to put this no response.
do mean to say above port for windows 2012…? & wsus 4.0 not for windows 2008 R2.
Please guide me which port i will sepcifiy during installtion , i think when during installation wsus it give us two option by defualt port & second for windows 2012 setup port, i am not remember
Regards,
Arshad
Hi prajwal,
i would like to know port 8530 & 8531 need to wsus & sup Correct. last time it was working fine the same port. But now my network admin check this port not responding & sccm 2012 Clietnt dig test also not passing.
this is main reason for wsus not synchronizw with SUP…? Kindly let me know
My more post on you site which is not required you can delet it
Regards,
Arshad
what version of WSUS have you installed ? 3.0 SP2 or 4.0 ?
WSUS 4.0 (it’s actually 6.2 as per Microsoft) is the newer version and can be only installed on Server 2012. On windows server 2008 R2 you have to install WSUS 3.0 SP2. By default, in Windows Server 2012, WSUS 4.0 uses port 8530. However, WSUS 3.0 uses port 80, by default. Regarding the ports,i think the best practice while installing WSUS is that you pick another port other than port 80 the recommendation is to use port 8530. The firewall on the WSUS server must be configured to allow inbound traffic on these ports.
on the SUP Propertie
wsus config
port 8530, ssl port 8531, same config it was working fine
now i change to both 80 not working (as per my network admin )
then revert back to same . as i am using windows 2008 R2 DEFAULT recommended this port above one
If any feedback why not syschnize wsus with sup
proxy we difne on wsus setting fine, update also fine & port is 8080
so wusu on my same server (sccm 2012)
Regards,
Arshad
Hi Prajwal,
FYI…..
My wsus service connected dtabase sql windows 2008 r2 (Database engine) on my sccm 2012 sp1 server . while installing i taken all default.
WID feaure also installed by defalut on the sccm2012 server , i never removed.
i requested them to Enable windows update from all my server , as they disable 2 days back..
Best Regards,
Arshad
@ prajwal
when i uinnstall wsus ( i remove wsus, log files & windows update) this time is it impact…?
but wsus working fine (all update also on the “d” drive of sccm 2012 server
note: wsus & 2 patches i setup manually (downloaded from the net)
Best Regards,
Arshad
Hi Prajawal,
Last tow days back they applied group policy not to update all the server including sccm 2012 & scom & sql server, i mean to say we are not able to do any windows update on server as our account having no privilage is it impact anything….? ( becuase we stop it will restart Auotmatic, so we planned to take all update from wsus & push later)
t
heree is proxy server but no issue as wsus working fine , as sup & wsus as same server.
then where i need to check..?
shall i change the above three server full privilage of administrator ( i mean windows update option enable to my all related servers)
Best Regards,
Arshad
Hi, Prjwal,
As you mention as per my log file below error yes i also verified that , even windows even id we get normaly wsus not synchronize. Any how now sup Part issue.
i am very thankfull to you & your response & support me, showing the right path where i am wrong & support me all the way.
As i done this testing windows 2008 R2 with winndows update with both role, i having old snap shot without windows 2008 R2 update i will revert that back & try to uinstall & install botht role with
wsus two patches. Lets see it.
last time i first uinstall only sup, then try to install sup then it ask for server name (sscm2012) ,when i defined that server name name, nae exist menas then i given differert location for sup path , Because we need to uinstall both role (wsus & sup) & then it will be fine. i done after that. But now sup making issue for update & alos that collection name error issue ,so i will try by old snapshot .
when uinstallting wsus it will ask one more option of check box log file & windows update …better to keep as it is. (only wsus uinstall) correct….?
first time i done only uinstall & install wsus, sup & .wsus pacthes . i was successfull. no any issue.
If any feedback from your side for my all description & any steps try before this one.
Best Regards,
Arshad

Arshad, have you installed SCCM right click tools or any other tools to manage SCCM tasks ?
@Arshad – Found two errors in your log file.
1)DB Server not detected for SUP SERVERNAME from SCF File.
2) Sync failed: WSUS update source not found on site SiteCode
Hello, great information, thanks for your good documentation!
I just wondered if any other SCCM user ran into the problem to be able to update the Windows servers (2012, 2008 R2) the “conventional way” via Windows Update, the SCCM server as the WSUS server and therefore being able to choose the time of installation of the already downloaded patches individually while still updating the other clients via SCCM push.
I searched this post but did not find any suggestions.
Anyone solved this yet?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for Valuable Info
(1) Sure i will try
(2) i will ceheck it the package size of both win 2008 r2 & win 2012 r2 & let you know ( Package installed no iusse, update size big boz the windows update was installed almost 6 Months Back & all servers stop working all updates by wsus , the Previous administrator does n’t having sound knowledge of MS Products . After as i handled reecently this job now i Started checking each stuff & need to clear all scrap one by one , so i always asking your guide lines as am new to SCCM & SCOM
(3) Nice Link & definetly i will read & follow the same. After Local server admin told me that no updates reach to software centre. Next day we login ourself we saw the update avaiable on the software centre as same date of deployed . That is the reason i asked that if patches size is more , then it could be the network bandwidth issue as our setup running more than 60 servers. Anyway in future i will check it my self remotely login to all servers as deployment has been done successfully & also first i will chcek it log file as you suggested to me by your link.
Once again Thank you very much for all & Glad to see your Reply

Arshad

But servers we are not define boz of it may restart the server after update. when i checked some old collections list of servers update group as windows 2008, windows 2008 R2 etc update schedule every 7 days & set time was there. then i disable that option it could be reason our some server restarting. Then i create new collection for windows update & Manualy push the Server client & it works fine.
Later we discover that some server windows 2012 & windows 2012 R2 Automatic windows update option was enable & it taken the update from server Internet connection not from SUP . But no issue bcoz i am not push to this server by collection.
can you send me your link for group policy not to restart the server for manual update & also administrator not able chnage the settings of server windows update.
Is there any setting need to be disable from SCCM 2012 sp1 conosle for server update apart from collection folder
(2) If more than 50 Patches availabe for one server, it is advisable to push one time as one collection package or dived it & later push it. if any network bandwidth concern or sccm 2012 sp1 package overload or hang or might be take more time on the software centre to reach. kindly let me know.
(3) As i created one collection for one server update Push as per our requirment , if server admin say that due to some reason after done the update ,next day if say that unable to see the update on windows update option
then again we try to push on the same collcetion or need to delete the collection & recreate new collection name for same server.. ..?
Beacuse once i notice that if try to push with same collcetion name for same server , later will get error as”Microsoft confgration mangment has stopped working” on the collection folder properties
or when try deploy on the same collection for same server (for same update) error was dot net frame work. Then we to uinstall role of wsus & sup correct…….? (event id same name define software updatepoint etc). Kindly let me this way of soultion for this problem or any other option avaiable for this error to wipe out from SCCM 2012 SP1 Configration Manager………?
Take your own time & Thanking you in Advance.

1) To prevent auto-restart for scheduled Automatic Update installation options, Open Group Policy Object Editor, expand Computer Configuration, expand Administrative Templates, expand Windows Components, and then click Windows Update. In the details pane, click No auto-restart for scheduled Automatic Update installation options, and click Enabled.
2) What is the size of the package ? It is advised to do this activity in the maintenance time frame..
3) Before you push the update again check why were the software updates not installed on the servers..You can delete and create a new collection but that’s of no use. Here is the help link :- http://blogs.technet.com/b/sudheesn/archive/2010/11/10/troubleshooting-sccm-part-iii-software-updates.aspx

Hi Prajwal,
i would like to know how to remove old updates ( Present from year 2010 are many update lists) on the all software updates folder which are marked as x (Black color), i am not able to see delete option if i right click. i can filter as expired update with this x Mark , but how to delete & recommended to delete,..?

Hi
How do I update an exisiting Software Update Group with new Windows updates
It’s truly a great and helpful piece of information. Please stay us up to date like this. Thanks for sharing.
Looking for a SCCM 2012 report that shows all installed WINDOWS updates.. do you have one available or know how I can create one ? thanks in advance.
If you have deployed the windows updates using SCCM to a collection you can generate the reports for that.. If you want to check if a specific update is installed then you can make use of compliance settings. Currently I am working on SCCM 2012 R2 and I will surely send you the details on how to create report for windows updates installed.
Nice tutorial, maybe you can help me with our scenario:
Three sites, one SCCM at every site. The one at site 1 is the main site Server, the ones on site 2 and 3 are Distribution Points.
We want the Clients at site 2 and 3 to check at site 1 for the updates but download them from their local Distribution Points. In the GPO there is just one entry for the update Server for detecting and downloading.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Hi Prajwal,
could you please share if you have any process document for Microst security updates deployment in sccm 2012.
Nope currently I don’t have any process doc but I can send some time later..
as my above request I need to report on compliance as well
has anyone done this?
Any help would be great thanks
Hi,
I need to create SCCM 2012 R2 SQL Query on software updates, I’m not really familiar with SQL has anyone created that through the configuration manager console?
Please let me know thanks
I could see Camtasia Studio .exe file is still running in the task manager. Is this is the cause to trigger failed mail?
If so, how to kill the exe running in task manager
The software Camtasia studio has been distributed successfully, but its not getting installed on client computer and hence it throws error.

Hi Prajwal,
I am currently working on CAmtasia Studio 8 application, which is installing fine without any issue, but SCCM team is triggering failed mail. Request you to helps us in finding out the cause and how to fix the issue.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
May I know what exactly do you mean by “SCCM team is triggering failed mail.” ?? Are you talking about error message ?
The mail will get triggered from sccm not from sccm team.
When we request a software from software catalog(SCCM), this will trigger a mail to the requested person mail box saying the particular software has been requested on the machine name, target,Date, Estimated time for completion of installation,software name. If the software installation is success, it would trigger success mail. As of now the application is installing well, able to launch the shortcuts but sccm is triggering below failed email.
Request you to help us in solving the issue.
The installation of TechSmith Camtasia Studio 8.0.4 has failed for the following computer:
Tejasvi, Lavanya (TejasviL) on WHQW7YSW0M1L
The package was requested by Tejasvi, Lavanya (TejasviL).
You may contact the Service Desk to assist with the installation of this software.

Yes my servers are not installed patches on scheduled time. I have scheduled client local time.
Already I have download patches to SCCM server locally and have created DP for 2008 server as per your above document.
Varatharaj – Please create a support ticket here :- https://forums.www.prajwaldesai.com
We will discuss the issue in the ticketing tool.
I have opened a ticket
As per your document I have deployed the patches, but my servers are non sensing the patches on scheduled time. Also I have tried from client wuauclt /detectnow to manually sync patches from sccm server.
Please let me know what is wrong I am doing.
“my servers are non sensing the patches on scheduled time”
You mean to say that servers are not deploying the patches ?
Make sure you download the patches on SCCM server and distribute it to the DP first. what schedule did you choose – UTC or client local time ?
hi,
Is it necessary to set a group policy to deploy update, than a SCCM client ??
i will install only WSUS role then, why SCCM ?/
regards,
You can only specify your WSUS server in group policy. Do not configure anything for deploying updates apart from that. Rest all is taken care by SCCM.
Hi, Prajwal, (sorry for my english)
I have a question for this part. You have explained in this part how deploy windows updates on pc. It’s okay. should i recreate this package every month with new updates manually or this package auto-update itself?
cordially,
Hi Prajwal
we have setup sccm 2012 and push the windows updates to client, but we notice still all our client machine getting the windows update from microsoft not from our sccm server, so what could be the issue, we deploy the windows update server patch using GPO, we confirm the windows update from microsoft by looking at our internet management system
If you are using SCCM to push the windows updates then you can remove the GPO set for windows updates. I want to know while setting up the SCCM have you installed WSUS again ? Have you configured the WSUS server ?
This looks like a great way to get updates installed. However, when new patches come out next month, how do you make sure they are getting installed as well. What are the steps for this?
thanks,
Shane
I tried step by step all the above but software updates never came up on configuration manager console. every time it just said sync fail.
There is no definitive guide on internet which works in one shot. Did the installation at least 5 times. Can anybody advise what would i have emissed
Have you checked the internet connectivity ?? post the log file…
You do not need to use group policy to set the location of the update server. The config manager client will do this automatically if configured correctly.
Hello Prajwal,
We are in the process of building a package for GMobile map update package. Please let me know if this feature in SCCM can be reused to push data updates to application.
Vijay
May i know what is the extension of the software update package ??
These are map files and not so much with a software update (I am guessing you need to know if it is an msi or something similar). We haven’t built a package and are still trying to find if SCCM is a real fit for this purpose.
We are looking at how gamers are publishing their updates to the clients.
Hi Prajwal
How We can force users to internet to download MS Patches&updates,and we just need to be able to report on the updates installed in the client machines from SCCM 2012.
To be more specific
Requirements
1. As part of patching, we will not create a package for windows updates and deploy it to collections client should download the required updates from internet
2. Also we didn’t want to download the updates and save it locally in our WSUS Server. Windows clients will download the updates from Microsoft directly, but we have to keep track/record of updates installed to client machines using SCCM server.
Your valuable response will be highly appreciated
Regards
Rajiv
I don’t think you can generate reports of windows updates installed on client computers through SCCM if the updates have been pushed through WSUS server and not through SCCM server. There is a way to check whether a specific update has been installed on client computer and that is through creating a DCM rule (SCCM 2007) or configuration baseline in SCCM 2012.
Thanks Prajwal!!
This my requirement
The clients get the list of patches from SCCM, but they actually go to MS to download those patches.
Regards
Rajiv
So what is the purpose of installing SCCM ?
Ahhhh this is my requirement.Please letme know do we have options to do this.
If you are installing windows updates directly from Microsoft update then you cannot generate the reports using SCCM. If you are deploying windows updates through SCCM then you can generate reports by opening the reporting services, Home > ConfigMgr_BLR > Software Updates – B Deployment Management.
Can you make sense of this? I have the exact setup as stated above and previous articles, but the WSUS portion I can never get to function.

Hi
Very Informative and great pictorial explanation of basics …..
Thanks for sharing it ………………..
@Siddharth Sharma – Thank you !!!
Thanks, I figured that’s what I’d have to do. btw Thanks for the great walk throughs–I’m installing on 2012 server with 2012 SQL, but the instructions are basically the same.
I’m looking to use SCCM to deploy Flash and Adobe patches and I already have a WSUS in place running 2008R2. I configured the upstream server to be the current production WSUS. I configured SCCM to only grab definition updates. However GPO only has settings to look for one WSUS.
How do I setup an infrastructure like this? Should I just move the WSUS off the current production server and let the SCCM server manage all WSUS updates? or can I keep the current WSUS in place use it as an upstream server to SCCM and point all clients to SCCM?
@Zak – If you are using SCCM and WSUS then you need to decide whether you want to deploy updates to the computers using WSUS or SCCM. I recommend you to take off the WSUS server and let SCCM manage the deployment of Updates.ConfigMgr integration provides better reporting and targeting of updates.
I have seen most of the times that the users are not satisfied with SCCM when it comes to deploying updates. It’s true that WSUS is very simple to configure and manage. But again SCCM provides you better features than WSUS. So my advise would be to setup an SCCM lab in your environment and deploy updates using it. If you are okay with it move from WSUS to SCCM.
