Hi,
Are there any recommendation for deploying WinXP SP3 via BigFix?.
We have the 300MB plus update in our Bes Custom share.
We have the following relevance:
(name of operating system = “WinXP”) AND (platform id of operating system = 2) AND (free space of drive of parent folder of system folder /1000 /1000 > 1500)
We are using the following Action script:
download http://BESServer:52311/Uploads/Custom/Windows XP SP3/WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe
wait __Download\WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe /quiet /passive /forcerestart
The above doesn’t appear to work and using the BESmirror request tool the action just appears to keep trying.
Is it best practice to cache the file and extract or is it best to copy the Service pack to each PC and issue a command to install it?.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben.
