Define Installed Rules Page

Use the Define Installed Rules page in the System Center Updates Publisher Create Update Wizard or Modify Update Wizard to configure the rules that verify whether the software update is already installed on the computer. Even though the installed rules are optional in the wizard, at least one rule must be created to publish the software update to an update server.

This page contains the following UI elements:

• Expression Builder
  Specifies the installed rules for the software update definition. For more information about creating rules, see How to Create Rules in Updates Publisher

• XML View
  Provides an Extensible Markup Language (XML) read-only view of the defined prerequisite rules.

• Previous
  Displays the previous page of the wizard.

• Next
  Displays the next page of the wizard.

• Finish
  Displays the Summary page of the wizard.

• Cancel
  Discards the settings and exits the wizard.
