Hi,

I have deployed microsoft patches for endpoints,but baseline still showing applicable endpoints.

After deploying microsoft patches for endpoints,showing completed status.But applicability remains same in baseline.

I have restarted endpoints using post action and also manually rebooted after finishing patching.

Next time if I try to deploy patch, showing not applicable for endpoints.

Any one can advise me regarding this.

I need to make applicability 0 for the baseline.

Two things:

First why not just use the fixlet applicability to prove compliance?

Second your baseline could be setup incorrectly. Baselines can either be set to use their own relevance or they can be set to be relevant if any of the contained fixlets/tasks are relevant.

Either way my experience has shown that it is near impossible to get 100% compliance. I supposed this depends on the size of your environment.

Could you please advise me in detail regarding “the fixlet applicability to prove compliance” .

I need to complience End points which are showing applicable in baseline.But, after deploying Patch end points showing not relevent.Still 1000+ endpoints are showing applicable in base line in total 2000+ endpoint of the baseline.

Base line has been set up in the sameway as previous baselines.Previous Base lines are working fine. They are showing 50/60 end points are applicable in 6000+ end points.

Please let me know if you have any soln for this.
