    Hi folks,

    If the BP server is part of the target platform to update, do you see any issue updating the BP server itself with BP to avoid weak point? I mean update the server itself with the BP installed on it (127.0.0.1 as target).

    I wonder if the BP process can handle patching and associated reboot if nothing but this target is processed

    PS:In my situation, I’m in cached+offline mode if relevant

    Regards

    Booster – If you run BatchPatch as admin, then yes you will be able to self-update. If it is *not* launched as admin, the self-update will fail. However, in either case, the reboot will always fail. BatchPatch will never reboot the machine that it is running on.

    Hi Doug,

    Fine enough for me, I just need a way to do it for this dedicated server, even if I have to manage the reboot part myself
