Setting up the patch management policy for Windows operating systems
This section explains how to set up the patch management policy for Windows operating systems.
Setting up the patch management policy allows infrastructure administrators to set the patch types (the classification of updates, which represent the WSUS update program types) for application status monitoring, as well as the patch types to be applied to all servers without fail.
This enables tenant users to distinguish which patches are mandatory and which patches are optional when they apply patches.
