Using ZTIWindowsUpdates.wsf to apply WSUS patches (outside MDT)

  • 772

I have a need to apply Microsoft patches/hotfixes from a WSUS server. I'm already using ZTIWindowsUpdate.wsf in my stand-alone MDT environment to patch machines during the build.

My target machines are not currently managed by SCCM.

Can this script be used to pull hotfixes on-demand (outside MDT) from a WSUS server? If so, is there a specific syntax? If not, are there any alternatives?

    I figured it out and came up with my own script which includes some corner cases. I used the following script as reference:

    • ZTIWindowsUpdate.wsf from MDT 2012 Update 1

      Used as reference for registry settings to point to proper WSUS server before search, download and install operations are started.

    The following scripts used for reference for the main operation.
