The hairline shows how long I've been in IT
I just finished writing the initial Wiki articles about Software Updates in Configuration Manager, and hope others will contribute to it. It covers migration from SMS 2003, installation and configuration, deployment design, reporting, suggested normal monthly activity schedule, and troubleshooting. Of particular value to anyone who has begun testing this process is the section on deployment options in the deployment design section. This lists all of the major options you can select, describes how they work, and alternate places where they can be selected.
One intended section remains to be written, about updating servers. The primary feature that affects server deployments is the ability to restrict updates to maintenance windows specified by collection. That feature is already described in the deployment design section, so I'm trying to decide what else to say about updating servers.
If anyone sees errors or thinks of other topics to be covered, feel free to dive in and edit the material - or comment to this post or write to me.
