Hello,
Now that patch management can deploy Java, Adobe etc., does anyone know of a way to create a task for a software update so I am not making redundant packages? For example, I need to make a .NET 4.5.1 job to manually drag and drop on a few PC's. I already staged MSWU-883 ({67326663-1ea0-47b6-8214-8badc1be8c2f}) to deploy to some filters. Is there a way to make a task using the resource from that bulletin so I don't have to script this myself?
I know I could generically point the clients to a policy that never runs, then utilize "AeXPatchUtil /f {67326663-1ea0-47b6-8214-8badc1be8c2f} /q" but I don't really want to make new policies for this.
I could also do a Run Script task to point to the package that is already staged for the update "X:\Program Files\Altiris\Patch Management\Packages\Updates\MSWU-883\{67326663-1ea0-47b6-8214-8badc1be8c2f}\NDP451-KB2858728-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe /q /norestart" but that isn't very streamlined and I may need to make a custom Package Server token on top of it.
How would I make a task that just runs "MSWU-883" so I can manually drag and drop it from a job?
