Have the ability to call scripts before and after patching tasks, to allow certain services to be put into maintenance mode, failed over, etc.
When is this feature due? I really need some way of firing an e-mail from the PM server before tasks are initiated. This would allow such functionality if the scripts could execute on the PAS side. Also, would be nice if the scripts could accept PM specific parameters e.g. $PASSERVER or the like :O)
The Patch Manager 2.1.6 Release Candidate is now available on the Customer Portal which includes the ability to run pre and post-update PowerShell scripts. You can provide any feedback you may have within the RC forum.
Glad this made it!
