SCCM 2007 R2 - Push patches to clients but do not install till a specified time

Hi,
I'm not really familiar with SCCM and i have been pushed into administering an environment using SCCM 2007 R2 for deploying Windows updates.
My requirement is to have SCCM push the patches ( i.e download onto clients cache folder) but not install the patches till a specified time. The time will be downtime for the server and we should be able to set it to automatically install at that time.
Also, manually go in and install the pre-downloaded patches if it doesnt automatically install for some reason.
Can someone help me with the settings that i need to set to accomplish this requirement ? Also, is it possible to set different times for a 1000 odd servers ?

1-Push patches and install at a specific time go to deployment management created and under schedule give a timeline for patches to be made available and and to install at a specified time just give the deadline for that time.
2- The timlines can be set in deplyment management. deployment management targets a collection of workstations. timeline set in deployment management is applied to collection of systems targeted.
in your case, you will have to create differt collections for workstations. group workstations which needed to be installed with patches at a commion time and create template for that collection and in turnn create a deployment management for that template.
In different deplyment managements you will be able to target differnt time lines for differnt collections as per your downtime schedule.
Kindly mark this post as answere/helpfull, as approprriate found by you so that other administrators facing similar chanllenge can take advantage of this post

WSUS updates download to Client but do not Install immediately

Hi All,
Need your help to understand and resolve below WSUS related issue?
Client workstation has been configured with below WSUS group polices.
We have more than 2000 workstation which are part of same OU and same WSUS group policy.
This workstations has customize windows XP and 7 OS and its use as cash counter pc like in Mall.
We found 60% workstation has been patched with latest update automatically and rest of not patches.
We have created script for which remove old
C:\winnt\softwaredistribution folder and and run
wuauclt.exe / detectnow command.
Now we can see patches are downloading on system but not Install immediately. In event viewer we
can see event 17 which say “
Installation Ready: The following updates are downloaded and ready for installation. To install the updates, an administrator should log on to this computer and Windows will prompt
with further instructions: “ As this all workstation has customize OS and use command service account for login.
Also no pop us for as notification and no chance to install patches by user.
What we can do to install patches immediately without modifying GPO policy.
Does 3 - Auto download and notify for install gpo setting prevent us to install patches immediately After running script.
What is main reason on patches not install on workstation.
What will happens if system down during schedule install time.
Why always 40% workstation display as 99% install in WSUS console even after patches with latest month update.
Please suggest any new way to make 100% workstation compliance with patch update.
Windows Components/Windows Update Policy Setting
Allow Automatic Updates immediate installation Disable
Automatic Updates detection frequency 22 hrs

@JJJdavidson...
Thanks for sharing this valuable information.
Request you to please check below comment with respect of your suggestion and please suggest.
As you say with automatic update set to option 3 computer will never automatically install update But what will happens if we configure schedule install date and time setting along with automatic update option 3. Will it allow computer to install
update on given date or we have to configure this setting only with automatic update option 4.
Is it true that with automatic update option 3 computer only download update and user attention require to install update on computer.
As I say.. our workstations are customize with windows xp and 7 and it wont any user to install update.
No doubt on point number 4.
With respect of your explanation in point 5. Please suggest on below point.
On which condition system will decide whether approve patches are applicable or not.
If any workstation are newly format then will it download all approve patches for that workstation.
With respect of above question. If I format windows 7 workstation and in WSUS 100 patches has been approved since last year. Will it go and download all patches. In same case what will happens if any patches are replace with other patches .
I am asking all above request because i am majorly facing issue with 99% system status in WSUS and want to resolve this.

I do not have an apple computer, I have had Itunes Previously but had not used it for some time. when I try to use it now the following message keeps coming up no matter how many times install Itunes. "The Itunes library is locked on a locked disc ?

I do not have an Apple computer, I have had Itunes previously but had not used it for some time, I have Itunes gift cards but can not get ,on to use them. I have tried to download Itunes again but the following keeps poping up, "The Itunes library is locked on a locked disc, oryou do not have write permission for this file." How can I overcome this?

To solve this issue all I did was check to ensure that the file permissions were set as described by the earlier posts, followed by simply deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb file. Once the file was deleted I was able to open iTunes without difficulty. Note that I am running Windows 8. Hope this helps!

Have purchased a new computer but can not install elements 12 since it has been installed on old laptop. Is there a small fee to be able to do this. Never installed the video editing portion, can this be installed with no problem?

Have purchased a new computer but can not install elements 12 since it has been installed on an older laptop. This is a one time user program, is there a code that can be put in or a small fee to pay to be able to use the program again. Never installed the video editing and hoping this can be installed with no problem.

If the laptop is still connected Launch Elements in Expert Mode. Go to the help menu and sign-out. That will deactivate usage on the laptop.

I have Firefox set to check for updates but do not install, just notify. WHen I start Yahoo email, F automatically downloads and updates anyway.

I have FF set to check for but do not install updates. When I start yahoo email, FF automatically instals updates. I am only user/administartor. How do I make this stop? It is messing up other programs - destroyed my Norton security.

Usually, the "notify" setting works fine. I don't know whether having Yahoo as the home page makes a difference. ??
Updates are available for your Norton add-ons. Please see this article: [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Toolbar-Norton-Identity/Firefox-15-Support-for-Norton-Toolbar/td-p/791174 Firefox 15 Support for Norton Toolbar - Norton Community].
(Firefox probably can't find those automatically because the updates arrive through Norton LiveUpdate instead of the Mozilla add-ons site.)

Adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install

adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install?

Hunt
What you just wrote may have revealed the Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integration consideration. If you have Premiere Elements 11, you need Photoshop Elements 11 for the integration between the programs to produce the DVD version of the Photoshop Elements Slideshow.
All along I was picturing Meyerswalter already in Premiere Elements 11/Publish+Share/Disc/DVD and being told to install Premiere Elements to get the burn to disc accomplished.
But, if Meyerswalter is using Premiere Elements 11 and a non integrated version of Photoshop Elements for this matter, that could very well fit.
So, Meyeswalter, so that we can dispel those thoughts
a. What versions of Photoshop Elements are you using with Premiere Elements 11? And, are you in the Photoshop Elements Slideslide Show Editor using the Output of Burn to Disc DVD or Edit with Premiere Elements Editor and getting the load software message somewhere along the line?
b. To prove this point, if you have not already, what happens if you take Photoshop Elements out of the equation. Import some media into Premiere Elements 11 and try to burn to disc from there Publish+Share/Disc/DVD?
If that is the core of the issue, I will post a list of Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integrated combos as a guideline for you.
If this is the core of the issue, you could always keep the non Photoshop Elements 11 version that you have, output the slideshow to a wmv file sized for DVD and then import that into Premiere Elements 11 via its Add Media. More on that later if necessary since right now I am speculating on an explanation for what you are encountering.
Thanks.

With the subscription you sign in with your Adobe ID that you used to order the subscription. By installation code, I assume you mean serial number. You do not get one with the subscription, but use your Adobe ID.

Trying to install Photosmart 309g printer wireless, will install on computer with Vista but will not install on computer with XP, it finds printer on network but fails part way thur install. Installes great on Vista computer. What can I do??

The steps for XP in this document from HP are a great start to resolving issues of this nature. While the behavior is not exactly identical, the steps have the best chance of resolving the issue.

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
