Windows Patches needed

N7R7YZ

See details on my blog .  A DataSource that shows which Windows patches are needed. The patch names, and KB numbers show as instances and are grouped by Microsoft's 'classifications'. A special instance named 'summary' shows how many days since the last patch was installed and how many patches are needed.

    Thanks,

    WinRM is failing to connect to that server. Do you have WinRM enabled on that server and all the right credentials loaded into LM as properties on that device?

    Apologies for reviving a somewhat old thread, this is working great for us so far
    I was just wondering if its possible to turn the data into a dashboard?

    As an example it would display / work something like this -

    Widget: Security Updates
    KB name/  information:  KB4579979
    Devices required: 5

    Then click the 5 would display the machines its required on

    Is something like this possible?
