You can use WSUS and SCCM for update management. For more on WSUS and SCCM queries, post here. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverwsus/threads http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsum/threads Thanks

Hi, if you do not choose WSUS, you can use manual/standalone methods (but it's a lot more work for you). An example is here (mentioned is older Windows OS but the same principles apply): http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700814#XSLTsection125121120120Don

Agree with Don. You can create a batch file which can install multiple patches for you. Copy all desired standalone patches in a folder and create patch.bat inside that folder itself (see the sample below) You can even use programs like Winzip or Winrar to create a self extracting patch bundle (which includes patches and patch.bat) and copy that on individual server and execute the self extracting archive. Here is a sample batch file... @echo off setlocal echo *** Windows 2008 R2 64 bit Patch Bundle Installation *** echo C:\temp\Patches\Windows6.1-KB2644615-x64.msu /quiet /norestart echo Windows Update KB2644615 Installed...

Hi If YOu will use Santosh bat script, my suggestion is that use LSRunAs tool for running as administratorBest regards Dubravko Marak MCP Blog: Windows Server Administration Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

If you want to run a single standalone patch on the server, you don't even have to use WUSA.exe, through cmd locate the patch file destination and press << enter >> which install the patch ! E.g.
