Figure 11. Patching workflow
Patches needed by the devices are detected according to a schedule. | |
Patch signature files are downloaded from Quest according to the subscription and download options you select. For more information on downloading patch signature files, see Select patch and feature update download settings.
Patch packages are the files required to install patches.
There are two options for downloading patch packages:
• |
Downloading only those patches that you need: You can choose to download only those packages that have been detected as required by managed devices. Downloading this way reduces download time and disk space. In addition, you can choose to automatically remove patches after a specified time if detect results show that the patches are not needed. |
• |
Maintaining a full cache of patches: You can choose to maintain a full cache of packages regardless of whether the patches are required by managed devices. This method keeps packages available for quick deployment, but it requires more download time and disk space than downloading only those packages that you need. |
For more information about package download options, see Select patch and feature update download settings.
