Managing patches across multiple automations can get complicated. What if you could group them once and reuse them whenever needed? With Hexnode UEM, admins can now create reusable Patch Groups to simplify patch management and make automated deployments more modular.
Organize OS or App patches into Static or Dynamic groups and use them as targets in Manual Patch under the Automation Tab . Plus, configure multiple update classifications within a single automation instead of creating separate profiles for each.
Patch Groups are supported across Windows, macOS, and Linux devices, making it easier to organize and manage patches across these platforms.
What’s New
Head to Patches → Patch Groups to explore a simpler way to organize your patches. Admins can create two types of Patch Groups:
-
Static Groups: Manually add the patches you want to group together.
-
Dynamic Groups: Automatically include patches based on defined criteria, with exception criteria to exclude specific patches.
Patch Groups can contain either OS or App patches, but cannot mix both. Once created, they can be reused as targets in Patches and Updates > Manual Patch available under the Automation tab.
Group your patches. Simplify your deployments.
