Track SCCM Software Update Deployment through client log flow

In this video, I will show you how to track SCCM software update deployment through client log flow.

This is part 2 of "Patch Management Process using SCCM". Focus on this video is related to look into the log files involved at client side.

Check Part 1 for Patch Management Process using SCCM = Server Side process for SCCM with SUP/WSUS:

In this video, I have covered three topics:
1. Log files involved in patch deployment using SCCM.
2. Work flow of the patch installation process.
3. Demo - including deep diving looking into the logs.

This video will help you troubleshoot issues related to SCCM / SUP (wsus) patches.

Log files involved in patch deployment process:
CAS.log

PowerShell command line to be used to get update details:
Get-CimInstance -Namespace root\ccm\softwareupdates\updatesstore -ClassName CCM_UpdateStatus
Get-CimInstance -Namespace root/ccm/ClientSDK -ClassName CCM_SoftwareUpdate | Select-Object -Property Name,StartTime,RestartDeadline,UpdateID

Sir please create video on troubleshoot part if updates got failed on client site. What steps we need to follow

[CodingAddaX]

If we deploy superseeded updates how client work with those patches
.. Client will get installed or skip for latest one... This scenario always comes in case updates are missing and customer wants to deploy all missing updates...
