Windows Software Update Installation new task not working as expected

  • 1.  Windows Software Update Installation new task not working as expected

    Posted Nov 13, 2019 03:09 PM

    We have modified an update package to run a custom command line.
     

    If we deploy the update using a policy, the custom command run as expected

    But... If we deploy the package with the new task named "Windows Software Update Installation" (from 8.5 RU2 if I remember correctly) the custom command is not run as expected.  The task only run the altiris default command.

    Even if we create the task using this document, only the default command is started.

    Help!

    Hi danylavoie,

    this is the current design limitation of Windows Software Update Installation task (it uses default command line and you cannot modify it).
    We have a plan to allow command line modification but I don't have any specific timeline for this at the moment.

    Thanks,
    Dmitri.
