The Patch management section can be used to implement rules that can be used to automatically update managed packages. It is also possible to fine-tune these updates using these rules in order to only update applications if there are major updates, only download new updates and not automatically install them, etc. In the Patch management section a list of the rules is shown. The list shows the package the rule applies to, the version of the application, the latest available version, the type of the rule, the version restriction, and if an update is currently available.

Be aware: The Patch management feature can only be used with packages from the Package Store. |
