SCCM - software updates - Not required.

Hi All,
Can some one help with the understanding of "Not Required" software updates. How does actually SCCM decides why a particular software update is not required for a machine.
Rgs,

Hi, The detection method for if an update is applicable comes with the WSUS component so, the WSUS client which is configured by the SCCM client policy to use the SUP as a WSUS servern.
The client downloads infiormation about all updates and how they are detected from the SUP and then it sends the result to the MP that processes which updates are applicable or not into the SCCM DB.
So it it the same way the Windows Update agent uses WSUS and Microsoft Update detects which updates are applicable.
Regards,
Jörgen

    Why does my software update not show up in general settings?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
    You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
     Cheers, Tom

  • TS1394 Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)

    Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
    Hi, I am currently using Snow Leopard 10.6 on my iMac. I opened iTunes and was told there was an update available so I clicked the button to download it. This obviously opened up the 'download' screen with blue bar. The blue bar does not move and the message comes up that the download failed. I have tried troubleshooting, but the message I get is that I am not connected to the internet - which I am.
    Please help.

    Check your iTunes version, it's reporting v10.6.3 here on 10.6.8 and no updates required.
    You should be able to download it from here

  • SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching

    Hi,
    We're getting ready to tackle the phenomena known as Java patching, and I was wondering if I could get your personal preference; SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching?
    I probably should give a little background on my environment; It's a university atmosphere, so unless it's policy, you have to ask nicely...can't tell people to do things they don't want to; multiple version of required versions of Java for what ever reason,
    which need to be identified, grouped together, and then upgrade as much as possible without breaking their old applications.
    I was thinking that Application Management probably made more sense where it is more robust, especially for removing multiple installs of Java on a single system, but Software Updates/SCUP looks like it was built for this type of patching, so I'm a bit confused
    why SCCM would have two components which essentially did the same thing.
    Your thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    For Java version management specifically you can already achieve a lot by using the Application Model in CM12.
    You can define supersedence between the different versions, just make sure to opt for uninstall of the older version when defining it.

That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.

  • Mac Book Software Update not working, iTune will not update because of that, iPhone 4 won't connect to iTunes because iTunes is not updated. Mac v.10.5.8, iTunes v.10.5.2, iPhone4 iOS 6

    Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
    As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2  (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
    Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
    so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not  update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
    Please help.

  • SharePoint Server 2013 farm software updates not available in SCCM

    At my current customer, we are currently switching over to SCCM for all Software Update Management.
    For now, the only issue we are experiencing is that we do not receive SharePoint updates on our SharePoint Server 2013 farm. With WSUS we can detect these, but they are not listed in SCCM. We sync directly with Windows Update.
    It are specifically the updates that are marked as "farm-deployment", as you can see in example in this image.:
    http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gI8Ew7RlY0g/VPqM0QUn6oI/AAAAAAAAIDQ/S1Ufp0x-mSU/s1600/windows%2Bupdate%2Bincludes%2Bsharepoint%2B2013%2Bpatches.png
    In the SUP properties, we have enabled the Office 2013 product and all classifications besides "Tools".
    Am I missing something?

    I could see these SharePoint updates in my SCCM console.
    N.B. the question was about "farm-deployment" updates specifically.
    Can you please post a screen-shot showing these updates in the SCCM-console?
    This is from WSUS:

  • Why do some Security Updates get flagged by SCCM 2012 as "Not Required" when the Bulletin ID states they are?

    Hiya
    We've just pushed all updates from the March patch Tuesday Security Bulletin to our test Workstations/Servers (using SCCM 2012 R2)
    One of the patches (MS14-013 - KB2929961) hasn't applied to a selection of 2008 R2 and 2012 Servers, but according to the Bulletin notes for this it is applicable to both. It has applied to my Windows 8 boxes.
    The servers don't already have this applied, its not a superseded update and SCCM has flagged this as "Required" for x64 versions of Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 but "Not required" for any servers. 
    Bulletin ID states its applicable to all except Itanium based editions - https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/bulletin/ms14-013
    If I download the update and try to run it manually on the servers I get "The update is not applicable to your computer"
    So it looks as though the WUAgent and SCCM compliance are reporting correctly, but that the Bulletin ID isn't entirely correct??
    Has anyone else found this? We use the Bulletin IDs for monthly meetings on what we're patching and what system it will affect so causes a lot of confusion with system owners when a patch doesn't apply that they're expecting to get applied.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Without any indepth investigation if I am not mistaking the update is for Directshow and that component is installed with the Desktop Experience on the server OS's, and therefor the update is not applicable on the servers.. 
    Could that be the case?

  • SCCM Software Update's / ADR questions

    Hello Technet/SCCM community,
    after much scratching of the ol' noggin and lots of internet searches I have been left with a handful of questions regarding SCCM 2012 SP1 and its Software Update Point functionality with emphasis on Automatic Deployment Rules.
    1.When creating an ADR if one ADR's updates are the same as another ADR's updates how can we avoid storing/downloading duplicates? Can I store the updates in the same folder and will SCCM be smart enough to share the updates rather than having two copies?
    note: one way around the above would be to separate updates into different ADR's, here is my issue with this method: lets say I have one ADR for Win7 updates and one for Office2013/Silverlight etc. Now Im deploying multiple packages to machines causes a
    larger update window and possible multiple restarts. So lets say I suppress the restarts, well when users get around to it they will still see the updates being applied and per our policy we have one window to push these and when we wander from the norm users
    minds break. i.e. I don't want multiple ADR's deployed to the machines a month and I do not want to suppress restarts.
    2. Is there no way to only download the metadata of these updates? Currently updates for my environment are eating up 80 gigs of hard drive space. 40 gigs to the download location which then gets duplicated to the content library which sets me up for my
    next question: Why are these updates in both locations essentially doubling the HD space you need for updates. My content library grows gig for gig with my SUP updates store.
    3. Scenario: I deploy updates month 1, 100 updates are downloaded and deployed and update group entry is created. Next month I deploy again this time 50 updates are downloaded and deployed, update group 2 created. Questions: Now if I delete update group
    1 and do not have a date released or revised rule will the next deploy grab update group 1's updates again? In other words should I always leave the update groups in SCCM so it knows what updates have been deployed and wont download those updates again. And
    finally if I should leave the update groups can I still delete the updates from the folder freeing up space but still allowing SCCM to know whats been deployed?
    4. Does anyone have an essential Windows 7 workstation updates ADR build they can share. For Workstations I like to deploy everything they need in one ADR, Office 2013, Silverlight, SCEP, and WIN7. So far Ive never come close to the 1000 limit. Server ADR's
    are a different story.
    MichaelSpaulding

    I appreciate your clarification of an ADR, I understand what it does and doesn't do, I'm simply using the term ADR to cover the subjects I'm discussing. 
    This piece of your response answers my questions in full and is very helpful.
    "You can use the "Period of time for which all pending deployments with deadline in this time will also
    be installed" setting on the Software Updates tab to group deployments together that have slightly different deadline times; however, Office 2013 and SCEP updates generally don't require a reboot."
     I had previously set the deadline/restart window to "as soon as possible", I will utilize
    the above to resolve my issues with my ADR deployments and I will also use the below for how I group updates. 
    "I generally configure an ADR for all workstation OS updates, one for Office, one for Server updates,
    and one for SCEP. These all reference the exact same update package which I then change on a periodic basis like every 6-12 months. I also create new update groups month for each of these (except SCEP defs)."
    Thanks great stuff Jason:)

    When I look at a report for a compliant computer and a non-compliant computer, I do not see the pattern which would cause a computer to be compliant or non-compliant.
    Example for two computers:
    For each report, every item with a check mark in the Approved column also has a check mark in the Installed column. 
    For each report, if there is a check mark in the Is Required column, there are no check marks in the other two columns for that row.
    Yet one computer shows as compliant while the other shows as non-compliant.
    So in regards to the three columns in a Software Update report, what should be checked or un-checked to indicate whether a computer is compliant or not?

    Okay,
    When you run a Compliance 1 report, the resulting report lists three rows:
    One row for “Non-compliant”
    The second row for “Compliance state unknown”
    The third for “Compliant”
    Drilling down into each row displays the computers that fall under the three categories above. 
    Drilling down further on specific computers within each category shows each update on its own row with three columns, “Approved”, “Installed” and “Is
    Required”.
    I have been assuming that a computer lacking approved updates would fall under the “Non-compliant” report while a computer with all approved updates installed would
    fall under the “Compliant” report. (correct?)
    With this assumption, I have comparing compliant vs non-compliant computer reports by looking at the “Approved”, “Installed”, and “Is Required”
    column of each.  But I am not seeing the pattern that would designate one computer has compliant and another non-compliant.
    So it is the report (not me) that is telling what is compliant and what is not compliant.
    Am I understanding this incorrectly and if so, please fill me in (details would be great)?

  • Software Update not working due to a "networking error"

    Hopefully this post is in the correct forum. In trying to run Software Update, I am getting a networking error ("A networking error has occured: time out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again."). I can get on the network just fine via Firefox, and my Mobile Me account is syncing to my Address Book and iCal. However, Safari, Mail, and Software Update can't seem to connect. I ran Repair Permissions and Repair Disk (from the 10.5 Install disc), but these did not solve the problem. I also downloaded and ran the 10.5.4 Combo; it appeared to run fine. But subsequently running the Security Update 2008-005 and trying to reinstall Safari failed (both directly downloaded from Apple). Security Update won't let me select the computer hard drive, and Safari tells me that OS 10.5.2 or higher is required (even though I have 10.5.4 installed). I also tried running Software Update from other profiles on the computer to no avail.
    Any thoughts as to what is going on here? I'd prefer not to have to reinstall the OS from scratch, but I'm running out of ideas.
    Thanks!

    Select the clone tool and try a tool re-set.
