Hi, Is it possible to download/install Windows Updates silently on Server 2008 x86 OR x64? I saw it is possible with XP and Server 2003. Also, is there a way to only download the updates and install them at a later time. If updates are downloaded and install right away they are deleted from \Software Distribution folder. If a silent install is not possible I would like to save the downloaded updates and install them on machines as necessary. Thanks.

You can use WSUS or SCCM SUP point for this purpose. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/winserverwsus/threads http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsum/threads Thanks Yousuf Ali | Microsoft Community Contributor Award 2011
