Hello All, I'm in the process of determining what we will need for our Windows 10 roll out next year, as part of our tech refresh cycle. I have a few Win10 machines I have been using to test to figure out what I need to do and what to expect from the Patch Management administration side of the house. In addition to the…
I honestly didn't know this was a thing until someone asked me to do it, and it turns out Patch Manager can help with this! Import this under Configuration Management Reports → Local Users, Groups, and Logon Information. I filtered out some (but probably not all) of the other groups that include the word "Administrators"…
Has anyone had experience using a single Patch Manager server to manage multiple SCCM environments, an SCCM environment and a WSUS environment, or multiple of each?

I have installed my PAS in one of our environments, WSUS installed first before SW. I am able to publish my 3rd party patches to my local WSUS server, but my downstream servers are not getting the 3rd…
I'm sure someone has done this before, but I'm wanting to build in the Patch Manager WMI into my Windows vRA builds. Where I'm falling short is trying to get patch manager to install the WMI package to a non-domain joined VM, which I would then turn into the template that vRA would build from. Another idea would be to add…
Hi everyone, we are working to improve our documentation for Patch Manager, both the Admin Guide and we are also planning to create a Getting Started Guide for new users (see the NPM guide for an example of what I mean).
