Support Pac Update Question

John Stone_2 — Mon, 03 Oct 2005 15:40:18 GMT

This probably should be filed under the "RTFM" section but here goes...

When im attemping to perform an suport paq update on a server either viw a CIM push or manually on the server while terminal serviced in during the install i am prompted with the Microsoft signed driver warnings....
How do i perform the suport paq update with zero user input? I have over 200 servers that need to be updated and i cant be stopping to click "YES" on all the microsoft warnings.

Thanks in advanced !!

Which version of the support pack are you trying to push? Also, what's the OS running on the target servers?

You could change your Windows security policy for Unsigned Driver Behavior to "silently succeed". The default setting is "warn but allow".

You could do this per box via local security policy or at the domain or OU level thru a group policy.
