Yeah, I'm coming into a new environment and trying to figure out what they have setup. I've never used the required option in the past...

I'm...well....interesting. the ADR is set to run: Occurs every 2 days effective 2/12/2013 3:29 PM I might be scrapping everything eventually... ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Spinelli, Robert J Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2013 11:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] RE: Required>=1 Only downloads the patch if 1 machine (or more) in the environment is missing it. If you don't do that than all the patches will download even if you don't need it. What you got to be careful of is if some old machine comes on your network, it does need the patch, but you're ADR only runs once a month or something and now that guy is vulnerable until you're next ADR run. How often do you schedule you're ADR's to run? Thank you.

What does Required>=1 do? [cid:846542112@09052013-0D49] Would that pull in all patches that are marked as required by any computer? This communication is for informational purposes only.
