That SUG is deployed already to the two existing collections. 2) You stated: "The exclusion patch that I need to apply is to some systems in the “Software-Updates-Delay” collection. I have a SUG created for this patch in question and a collection “Exclude-Patch” which includes the systems that I cannot deploy this patch to. " So, SUG #2, this one contains that one, single patch. Things left to do: 3) Create another Collection, called "Software-Updates-Delay excluding Those Special Systems". In that Collection, you'll have two rules. INCLUDE "Software-Updates-Delay" collection. EXCLUDE "Exclude-Patch" 4) Target SUG#2, with that 1 single patch, to "software-updates-delay excluding those special systems", with the same deadline as SUG #1. And there you go.

I have two custom collections that I deploy patches to. 1. Software-Updates-Delay – Patches deployed to this collection are made available today and they become mandatory for install next Monday. This is to give end users time to patch at their schedule and complete reboots as they need depending on their business hour needs. 2. Software-Updates-NoDelay – Patches are deployed to this collection to apply immediately, however, sub collections in this collection have maintenance windows after midnight and therefore the patches and reboots don’t apply until then. This collection is for servers. The exclusion patch that I need to apply is to some systems in the “Software-Updates-Delay” collection. I have a SUG created for this patch in question and a collection “Exclude-Patch” which includes the systems that I cannot deploy this patch to. What’s the best way to achieve my exclusion patch goal to the “Exclude-Patch” systems without excluding all other patches that they will need?
