An SMS_SoftwareUpdate object is a type of configuration item, defined by SMS_ConfigurationItemBaseClass Server WMI Class. Use SMS_SoftwareUpdate to determine the compliance of software updates using the Software Updates feature in Configuration Manager.

Software update content must be downloaded manually. To identify which contents need to be downloaded, your application queries SMS_CIToContent Server WMI Class and obtains the list of ContentID properties matching the specific language criteria. With this list, the application can obtain the associated download URL and the related properties for the content files from SMS_CIContentFiles Server WMI Class.

When the update content has been determined, the application optionally prepares the update for deployment using an SMS_AuthorizationList Server WMI Class object to create an authorized list of updates. Your application also has the option of implementing SMS_Template Server WMI Class to create a custom deployment template.

Note

When it is building an authorization list to include the software update, the application must set the IsBundle property of SMS_SoftwareUpdate to true to indicate that the update is part of a bundle. For more information, see SMS_AuthorizationList Server WMI Class.

When the application is ready to deploy the software update, it uses an SMS_UpdatesAssignment Server WMI Class object to create a deployment. To synchronize metadata among the parent site and the child sites, the application can call ResendObjectToAllSites Method in Class SMS_SoftwareUpdate.

You cannot import, create, or configure software updates in the Desired Configuration Management node. These functions are made available to configuration baselines through the Software Updates feature when software updates are downloaded. Therefore, software update configuration items can be selected to be included in configuration baselines even though they are not displayed under the Configuration Items node.

See How to Enumerate Updates Matching a Specific Criteria for a discussion of queries that you can use to enumerate the information about multiple software updates.
