Preventing a specific update from deploying

Recommended Posts

We have a schedule to sync updates from WSUS daily and deploy them every Thursday. However, we have a specific update that we do NOT want to deploy to any PCs.

 

When I go to the specific update and choose to disable the deployment, it shifts back to "enabled" on the next synchronization.

 

How do I permanently disable the update from deploying via SCCM?

Hello,

 

If you are using automatic deployment rules for this you can add "custom severity = none" in the criteria for your software updates. Then, on the individual update you do not want to distribute, set a "custom severity" to that update (anything other than "none"). Since your rule targets updates that do not have a custom severity set it should not download/deploy it.

 

This assumes that you are using ADR's and not currently setting custom severity for updates.

Great method. I've been using the ADR's and excluding the title of the updates, but this is much easier to maintain in the long run.
