SCCM ADR Not deploying

Question

I created 2 Automatic Deployment Rules, one that I want to have updates automatically approved and installed, but no server reboots to happen.

I ran the ADR and it states it was successful against the collection I created for a test server, it made the deployment package and software update group etc. However, nothing more has happened, it shows under the deployment monitoring page that the purpose is required and the action is to install, but compliance is 0.0% and the completion statistics are unknown 1 instead. I checked the servers software center to see if updates were there pending or something and it is empty, so not too sure what I have missed for it to not deploy the updates to the server?

Answer 1

I have managed to find the issue. Annoyingly a setting had not applied for some reason where the SUS site component device had not applied to the boundary group so the clients didn't know how to communicate with the SUS server

Answer 2

Hi, @Craig Summers

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

When you say SUS server, I think you mean the server that hold the SUP role (Software Update Point).

Anyway, thanks very much for your feedback. We're glad that the problem is solved now. Here's a short summary for the problem, we believe this will help other users to search for useful information more quickly.

Problem/Symptom:
Deploy ADR to clients, client cannot get the updates.

Solution/Workaround:
Add the SUP server to the boundary group.
