Find if patch is installed

[greavette]

Hello Forum,

I’m looking for a report/way within batchpatch to find if a specific patch/hotfix has been applied to a list of servers. Is there a way to do this in batchpatch?

Thank you in advance for any advice you can provide me.

Thank you Doug for the reply. Yes we’ve used this report to report on all updates on all VM’s…and I suppose what you are suggesting is we import into Excel and filter. Just wondering if Batchpatch had a more zeroed in approach to this searching.

Thank you for the reply.

You’re welcome. However, no I was not suggesting that you import into Excel. You can get exactly what you’re asking for inside of BatchPatch in 3 different ways.

1. Specify the KB number(s) or update title(s) so that only the update(s) you are looking for appears in the results:

2. If you don’t specify the KB number in the search, you can still sort your results by KB number.

3. You can also use the ‘find’ box to find the particular update that you’re looking for in the results window.
