sms ITMU prereq 2

[DennisZhao]

I am trying to install ITMU on my sms 2003 server w/ sp1, but there are a few hotfixes required before the install. KB900257, kb900401, and kb901034. They come with the ITMU download, but I can't get them to install on my server. I get the error message: This hotfix is not valid for this version of system management server.

Anyone else have this problem?

If you have SMS 2003 SP2, the hotfixes are already included as far as I am aware.

Hope this Helps.

Thanks ncotton, I am assuming that you have installed sp2 and running ITMU. I understand it can push out updates, but can it be used to see a list of all the computers that need patch updates? I want to use it to evaulate how up to date our systems are.

It will add new web reports that will show that information when the itmu is installed
