Patch management process

The Ubuntu patching process consists of the following phases:

Define Setup: This phase includes configuring Ubuntu patching settings for the Ubuntu proxy, repositories, policy settings, and scanner behavior.
Import Metadata: This phase includes getting the initial Ubuntu metadata into Server Automation.
Run Patch Compliance Scan: This phase includes running compliance scans to determine whether a server is out of compliance. This is usually an automatic process that occurs every 24 hours based on the SA Agent settings of the server. You can also run a Patch Compliance Scan manually using an empty policy. See Start a patch compliance scan and Start a patch compliance scan immediately.
Import Package Binaries: User must import package binaries before the Remediation phase.
Remediate: This phase includes using a patch policy to download packages and install updates on recommended servers.
