How to Create a Job From the Systems Page (Browser Interface)

You can use jobs to install and uninstall an update. To create a job from the Updates page, see How to Create a Job From the Updates Page (Browser Interface).

1. From the Systems page, select one or more systems.

2. Click View Available Updates.

   This opens the list of updates available for each of the systems you selected. Each selected system displays with updates available for that system.

3. Select one or more updates for the listed systems.

   To select all listed updates for a listed system, select the check box for the system.

4. Click Apply Updates.

   Selected updates are reviewed against the updates that are already installed on the selected system to determine if any of the selected updates have dependencies.

5. (Optional) If one or more dependencies are detected, agree to install the dependencies.

   You must agree to install the listed dependencies along with the selected updates to create a job and insert the job in the queue. Click Cancel on the Dependencies window to close the window and discard the selections and to not create a job.

6. Review the Confirmation screen which lists the created and scheduled jobs.

   The confirmation screen lists the update to be installed, the system host name where the update is to be installed, and the expected installation time and date.

   These jobs will be queued and run at the next check-in of each affected system.
