Question

Has anyone written any applications that launched windows updates or virus scan updates using LabVIEW? I am kinda looking to write and application to maintain a system and manage all aspects of keeping the system healthy. Thanks for your help.

Hi forgive,
Thank you for your question.
CAU update is for window update instead of Exchange update, so CAU will not work for Exchange.
The following steps updated Exchange server 2013:
Preparing AD is the first step:
Insert Exchangfe Server 2013 CU image on DC server and use setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms command to prepare AD shcema
Then use Setup /PrepareAD /Organizationname:XXX /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms command to prepare AD
Upgrading Exchange Server 2013 mailbox role is the second step:
With the DAG, we firstly find PAM(Primary Active Manager) role using
Get-DataBaseAvailabilityGroup <DAG name> -status | Format-List PrimaryActiveManager
command;
Then we move all active database to PAM server and use Set-MailboxServer –DatabaseCopeAutoActivationPolicy:Blocked
to prevent database move to target mailbox node;
Now we could install CU on non-PAM mailbox node, we will restart Exchange server after installation was finished;
After restarting server, we use Set-MailboxServer -DatabaseCopyAutoActivationPolicy:Unrestricted command to unrestricted this node;
Then we move all database from PAM node to new version mailbox server node;
We followed step 2 to step 4 to upgrade another DAG node.
Upgrading Exchange server 2013 CAS role is third step:
This step is no additional explanations, insert Exchange Server 2013 CU image on CAS server, click
Setup.exe to upgrade, when it finished, we can see the result, and do not forget restart this server.
The last step is upgrading Exchange Server 2013 management console:
This step is no additional explanations, we insert Exchange Server 2013 CU image on remote console server, click Setup.exe to upgrade, when it finished, we do not forget restart this server
Notice:  we suggest Window update is prior to Exchange update.
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
