WSUS 3 Developer's Blog - API samples...

Articolo
04/27/2007

Things are starting to get a little quieter here as we finish out the final tasks for this release. One of those tasks is to help developers build on the product, and make something even better than what we're already providing.

To that end, several of us are starting to work on short snippets of code that demonstrate interesting uses of our API. If you're new to PowerShell or the WSUS API (or both), you'll be able to take the samples, make a quick start, and actually accomplish some useful tasks.

Some of the samples will help you build your own solutions to some of the common feature requests we didn't get to in this release.

Some things we're playing with:

Start a synchronization on the WSUS server, that you can run from the Task Scheduler. This will let you build a set of synchronization times that are precisely what you need - rather than X times per day.
Gather information about only updates you've approved in your org. Most of our UI encourages you to get everything Needed out into your organization, but we also realize that just doesn't work for everyone. With the samples, you'll get a head start in getting just the information you want.
Gathering reporting data from the APIs. Exporting the reports from the UI is useful, but you may want to regularly export the data and show trends for data that your organization cares about. I've taken one of the samples, and built myself a larger script that checks multiple WSUS servers and shows trending for updates and computers over time. For some reason, I see a big spike of activity the second Tuesday of every month... and more and more computers checking in all the time.
Curious about another part of the API? Comment, and let us know what's interesting or confusing!

Jeff: They'll download as soon as they're approved. You can wait until you see machines need the update, before actually approving it. You can easily filter an update view to Approval: Unapproved + Status: Needed. John: Have you posted examples at the newsgroup? That'd be a better place to discuss the issues you're having.

I have a general question about the new release. If I were to approve all updates, regardless of whether the update pertains to my environment, does WSUS 3.0 download the update immediately or does it wait until one of my machines actually needs it? Really looking forward to the new release!

I have to say that with WSUS 3 I find the approval process and the synchronization to be confusing or at least less informative than in 2.0 Just in trying to match my production WSUS2 in terms of what updates are approved and what ones are not, the views in 3 are very limiting. I look very forward to the API and samples as without those my implementation of WSUS 2.0 would have never happened.

One thing I would like to see in the new 3.0 is the WOL wake on lan and under the computers pages i would like to see an option to add a column for computer make and computer model. This would allow me to search by computer model

Really like the 3.0 (used the RC for the last couple of months) Would like better reporting options (like saving your own custom reports and emailing them as a scheduled task) We used Patchlink in the past and I think WSUS 3 is much better.

One thing I would like to see better reporting options(ie) we should be able to print, email the server overview, the updates overview, the computers over view. Management doesn't have time to log into the servers and if we can give them a shapshot of the over all system they will see the value of the WSUS server and help with the IMO's

Two things I would like to see. One, a way to display those servers who are waiting on a restart to complete patch installation. Two, on any report with a patch name, the date on which the patch was released so that we can see how far out of date a server may be. Thanks!

Доброго времени суток!Уважаемые пользователи Интернета! Резанный Интернет,теперь не проблемма !!! Вот отличный способ сменить IP!!! Заходите на сайт ,регистрируетесь, оплачиваете и юзаете. Сам пользуюсь пол года ,нареканий нет всем доволен. Хочу заметить, сервис уникален тем, что вы в любое время суток можете купить или продлить оплату своего VPN, Т.к весь сервис автоматизирован. Вы сами управляете своим счётом, без участия суппорта. Всем советую - secretsline.com!!! VPN вам необходим если: Ваше соединение с интернетом ограничено несколькими приложениями Почта,ICQ а вам необходим полный доступ к сети. Рекомендую использовать,если в вашем оффисе ограничен доступ интернета, провайдером или директором. Вы цените безопасность соединения. Вам необходимо скрыть свой реальный IP-адрес,чтобы сохранить анонимность в сети. Вы выходите в сеть через прокси сервер,но необходимый сервис в интернете не работает через прокси. Вам необходим доступ к ресурсам имеющим ограничения в зависимости от IP-адреса.
