This package allows you monitor for pending Windows Updates on multiple Windows PC’s on your network. Several virtual devices are created including the number of updates available, description, severity and links to the respective knowledge base articles.
The virtual devices provide a number of metrics which can be used to trigger Homeseer events. This may be useful on Homeseer installations running Windows giving you immediate warning of pending updates; especially those which are marked as critical.
For example, you can schedule a local/remote reboot of any PC monitored by use of the 'Reboot Required' flag and reboot PC control at a time that suits you. If Homeseer is running on any of the PC's, the plugin will automatically close it gracefully, before restarting the PC/Server.
Note: If you are running Homeseer on Linux, you can still run this utility to monitor other Windows PC’s on your network.
