You set the local software updates schedule, in Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, by creating an instance of the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM Automation Class and by using the SetUserDefinedSchedule method.

To set the local software updates schedule

  1. Create a CCMUpdatesDeployment instance by using the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM class.

  2. Set the schedule by using the using the SetUserDefinedSchedule method.

Example

The following example method shows how to set the local software updates schedule by using the CCMUpdatesDeployment COM class and the SetUserDefinedSchedule method.

For information about calling the sample code, see How to Call Configuration Manager COM Automation Objects

Sub SetLocalSoftwareUpdateSchedule(newRecurrence, newHour)

     ' Initialize the updatesDeployment variable.
    dim updatesDeployment
    
    
    ' Create the COM object.
    set updatesDeployment = CreateObject ("UDA.CCMUpdatesDeployment")

    ' Set the local schedule by using the SetUserDefinedSchedule method
    ' and the recurrence and hour values passed in.
    updatesDeployment.SetUserDefinedSchedule newRecurrence, newHour
    
    ' Output success message.
    wscript.echo "Set Local Software Update Schedule."

End Sub
public void setLocalSoftwareUpdatesSchedule(uint newRecurrenceDay,uint newHour)
{
    try
    {
        // Create the UpdatesDeployment instance.
        UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib.CCMUpdatesDeploymentClass newCCMUpdatesDeployment = new UPDATESDEPLOYMENTLib.CCMUpdatesDeploymentClass();

        // Run the action.
        newCCMUpdatesDeployment.SetUserDefinedSchedule(newRecurrenceDay, newHour);

        // Output success message.
        Console.WriteLine("Ran SetUserDefinedSchedule.");
    }

    catch (COMException ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Failed to run SetUserDefinedSchedule method. Error: " + ex.Message);
        throw;
    }

}

The example method has the following parameters:
