Pgrantland Posted November 18, 2013 Report post Posted November 18, 2013 Hello, The guy the use to do the server updates retired and my boss would like to utilize SCCM 2012 to do the updates. They are currently getting there updates from WSUS and group policy. He has specific policies setup to restart specific servers at certain times of the day according to what works for the users. I'm thinking the best way of doing this with SCCM would be to create a software update group that contains those servers he had in the policy which can get restarted on the same day or at the same time. My question is that these servers are Server 2003, Server 2008 and Server 2012 systems. Can I have one group that contains three different Operating Systems and apply all security and critical updates to these servers or should each group only contain one specific Operating System? Any help on the best way to setup these groups and deploy windows updates to them would be greatly appreciated. How does your organization go about deploying Windows Updates to your servers\desktops? Thanks Pat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iroqouiz Posted November 19, 2013 Report post Posted November 19, 2013 You can technically deploy updates to the All Systems collection (please don't) since every machine only will install updates that are applicable, i.e. Server 2003 will not install Server 2008 updates and so on.
