Hello, How to monitor the creation of the package during a Deployment Package creation? Which log will display the tasks running... as the Package Status is "Install Pending" for awhile I would like to know what is going on!!! It is under Computer Management > Software Updates > Deployment Packages > All Approved Microsoft Patches ... Thanks, DomSystem Center Operations Manager 2007 / System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 Support
