Good Morning,
I'm new to SMP and am currently working on getting patch management setup and incorporated into our enviornment. I am working with a group of 8 machines and testing out how patches are being delivered. I currently have the below patch setup:
Basically I wanted it to start on the 18th, check every hour for patches, reboot after the patches are installed and allow it to the patch group.
What I'm finding is this, it immediately started to download patches and install them, then it restarted. GREAT! I like those results. However now I'm running into this after the initial restart.
It's showing all of the previous updates as being installed, but it's not installing the next round of updates. I left my machine like this over night and they were at the same spot this morning when I checked them. I then did a "send" and "update" and nothing happend. Then I clicked on the "Start Software Update Cycle" and BOOM things started to download and install this morning.
Now I'm at the same spot where it's showing the patches that were installed with a green check mark, I've done a "send" and "update", and tried to do the "Start Software Update Cycle" again but now it doesn't appear to be clickable, so nothing is happening.
My compliance report shows I still have 5 more patches to go until 100%.
Has anyone run into this? Or have any guidence for me? Like I said, I'm new at this so I apologize in advance. I've been searching the posts here but haven't found a similar thread to my issue. Thank you so much!
