Ways to check the satellite server

Asked By Hanna Wellis 10 points N/A Posted on - 11/09/2011

How can I check when our servers were last patched? 

I tried using the var, log, and yum but they do not show complete information. 

Are there any other ways to check the satellite server? 

Thank you very much for your expert advise.

Ways to check the satellite server

Hello Hanna Wellis,

The methods that you have mentioned in the question, the rar, log and yum are some of the ways that I know that you can use to check for the last time that your server was last patched.

Maybe you could use all of them and then try to combine all the information each one gives into one detailed procedure.

Another way that you can use to view when your server was last patched is by creating a VBScript procedure or any other script file which will be required the  C:WINDOWSWindowsUpdate.log file, and then it will check when the last update has happened and give you a detailed report.

Regards

Mahesh Babu
