does not sound like wrong side of the street to me. As it turns out, this little known feature was little known for a reason - it was *not fully tested* for use with Configuration Manager 2007. *As a result, it is not supported.*
In this context, "not supported" means that if you reported problems with the use of the ClientPatch folder directly - or problems as a result of its use - we would not change the product code to resolve those. In the event you have already deployed your clients and patched them in this manner but have no known issues,* chances are there's nothing to worry about. * On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 2:40 PM, Jason Sandys <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2009/04/08/automatically-applying-hotfixes-to-the-configuration-manager-2007-client-during-installation.aspx > **** > > ** ** > > That’s for 2007, nothing has changed in 2012 – trust me, I’ve asked.**** > > ** ** > > Also remember, not everything is documented – in fact, very few things > compared to the number of possibilities is actually documented.**** > > ** ** > > J**** > > ** ** > > *From:* [email protected] [mailto: > [email protected]] *On Behalf Of *James Massardo > *Sent:* Monday, July 22, 2013 2:29 PM > *To:* [email protected] > *Subject:* Re: [mssms] ConfigMgr CU2 silent install**** > > ** ** > > Is that listed in the Technet documentation or are there any MS blog posts > about it?**** > > ** ** > > Thanks,**** > > James Massardo**** > > ** ** > > *From: *Jason Sandys <[email protected]> > *Reply-To: *"[email protected]" <[email protected]> > *Date: *Monday, July 22, 2013 2:22 PM > *To: *"[email protected]" <[email protected]> > *Subject: *RE: [mssms] ConfigMgr CU2 silent install**** > > ** ** > > Exactly what I said before: CSS.
