Importing Windows patch contents from the managed servers view

As of SA 10.0, an Import Contents menu option is available from the Managed Servers view that enables you to import patch contents from a file. Windows patch contents (binaries) can be imported directly from the vendor as well.

To import patch contents from the Managed Servers view:

1. Log in to the SA Client with Manage Patch (Read and Write) permissions.
2. Navigate to Devices > All Managed Servers.
3. Under View, select Patches.
4. In the Patches content pane, select one or multiple patches.

5. Right-click and select Import Contents and select From Vendor… or From File….

   Singular patch content can be downloaded from a local file or directly from a vendor. However, if multiple patches are selected, only the "From Vendor…" option is available.

   • From Vendor…: This option enables you to import patch contents directly from the vendor. (Note: This option is only available for Windows patches.)
   • From File…: This option enables you to import patch contents from a local file that is accessible from the system where the SA Client is running.
