[jitesh kumar]

Hello everyone,

I have patched some SCCM Client devices ,I wants to know how i confirmed about what time sccm clientstarted installing patches and what time it finished installation.


currently i am using UpdatesDeployment.log.for installation start time and WauHandler.log for installation finished time to figure out details but i am unable to find details

As i have patched two files in device but it isn't showing process of both file.

please guide me.

There are multiple ways to check this, but none of them are really perfect:

• use Reporting. e.g. "Management 4 - Deployments that target a computer", "Compliance 4 - Deployment (per update)", ... etc. Or some other report, there are tons of reports that tell you basically the same things.
  
  
• use logging. You can view the status messages and see if the computer installed updates. But this is more useful for troubleshooting and not for checking if all updates were installed.
  
  
• the client also writes logfiles into the ccm directory http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693878.aspx
