Software Updates ignoring Software Update Plug-in Policy

  • 1.  Software Updates ignoring Software Update Plug-in Policy

    Posted Mar 29, 2013 11:06 AM

    We have a custom Software Update Plug-in Policy that is set to not install patches until 12/31/2031 (at 6am, 2pm, and 10pm). This policy is used in our 911 center and allows them to install patches manually when they have down time (by running patches via the command line). Twice now we have had computers kick off the patch cycle at 2pm on their own, ignoring the policy. They only ran once (at 2pm and not at 6am or 10pm). The clients both have the correct policy and are in the correct filters. One occurred a couple of months ago and the other yesterday.

    Has anybody seen this behavior before? Any idea how to prevent it from happening again?

    Thanks,

    Lisa

    Hello Lisa,

         Is the client utilizing an opened Maintenance Window at 2pm?
