Updating OMS Agent

Wanted to see if anyone has this too. I couldn't find any docs about how to maintain consistent agent versions. If anyone knows please chime in 🙂

 

 

 

  • Usually the agent updates are small one containing bug fixes. You can maintain the same version using several methods - Using Windows Update to install the latest version - Using Automation DSC to install and update the agents - Using scripts to update the agents All of the above methods require some work to achieve it.

  • If you're using OMS for checking updates already, the agents will get often get updated in optional Windows updates. So the answer that I've found is: update my boxes to the latest and greatest, and I won't have to worry about versioning issues.
