How to schedule Business Suite Software Updater to install updates automatically to Client Security and Server Security devices?

Issue:

How to schedule Business Suite Software Updater to check missing updates and install updates automatically to computers with Client Security and servers with Server Security?

Resolution:

By default Business Suite Client Security and Server Security scan for missing Software Updater updates at Windows startup and then once per day. You can change the rescanning time by following these steps:

Log in to the Policy Manager Console
Select a host or policy domain from the Domain Tree
Go to the Settings tab
Navigate to the Windows > Software updater settings page
In the General section, modify the Maximum rescanning period
Distribute the policy (Ctrl +D)

By default, installation of software updates is manually triggered by the Policy Manager administrator or by the local user if they have been given the "Show Software updater options to users" rights. To automatically install updates:

Log in to the Policy Manager Console
Select a host or policy domain from the Domain Tree
Go to the Settings tab
Navigate to the Windows > Software updater settings page
Scroll down to the Automatic installation section and change the Install updates automatically to one of the following
- All security
- Critical and important
- Critical
- All missing
Then from the "Install every" and "installation time" drop-down menus you can select the appropriate installation date and time
Distribute the policy (Ctrl + D)

You can exclude specific updates from being automatically installed with the "Exclude software from automatic installation" feature. Note that this does not hide the update itself, so the installation of the update can still be manually triggered by the Policy Manager administrator or by the local user.
