Automatically populate the SCCM Client Patch property during OSD
From the archive (2011). Written for the tools of the time, so some details may be out of date.
One of my previous posts has been incredibly popular. I worked with Michael Murgolo on testing a great ConfigMgr hotfix that would automatically apply hotfixes during a ConfigMgr OSD Task Sequence.
Matt Benninge has created a new version of the hotfix script with some very nice feature adds. Matt added the following features:
- Hotfixes are installed in order based one numbers. So my script installs KB2000 after KB98 where Michael’s would do the opposite.
- I always assume that the OS-disk will end up as C:, Michael’s script would not work if you had a Bitlocker partition during WinPE that was C: and OS as D: which then would become C: only after system had booted into “full OS”.
- You have the ability to exclude hotfixes with my script
- Limitation: The Hotfixes must all be located in a folder starting with “KB”, if this is not true that hotfix will be ignored.
My original post on how to install still holds true, and Matt has a post on how to use the script and some of his new features posted here.
