![]() It will complete quickly, and the file did not transfer again: Once completed, we can distribute the Win11-04 deployment package. If we transfer only the Win-03 Package from the Primary Site to a DP, we can see that the file in question is getting transferred: Using the first four letters, we can find it in the ContentLib – only one time: To make things a little easier, we will focus on the largest file. It looks like this in the content source: I´ve downloaded the March and the April UUP Updates into separate deployment packages: As the largest files of UUP updates stay the same every month, there is no need for big data transfers every month.īut let´s have a closer look. It will only store a single instance of each file in it. The next question that easily comes up is if you have distribute 10 GB to all your Distribution Points (DPs) every month.īut, since ConfigMgr 2012 it uses a single instance store better known as the Content Library (ContentLib). Therefore, we can see the used space in the properties of the drive:Īnother way to verify that hard links are being used is fsutil:ĭo we have to distribute 10GB to all DPs monthly? However, in this test these are the only files stored on this drive. In the screenshot below it looks like the updates from March and April take up 18.5 GB of space on the hard disk T: If the files are found on a different share, they will take up additional space, but will not be downloaded from the internet, but instead copied over locally. This scenario only works if the files will be downloaded to the same share as the previous updates. That means all the files that stay the same every month don´t need additional space at your source location nor will they be downloaded. When you have successfully downloaded the first UUP update, you might wonder if you must download 10 GB every month to your source directory:Īt a first glance it looks like it, but if you look closely at the PatchDownloader.log (normally stored in the %temp% folder), you can see that the downloader tries to create hard links: However, Microsoft Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr) uses clever technologies to limit the impact on the backend side.ĭo I have to download 10GB every month to my source location? However, every cumulative update (CU) is now about 10GB in size which might be a challenge to handle for slow connected systems. UUP Updates are a big step forward for on-prem environments that want to leverage features, which were previously reserved for online environments. In this Blog I want to cover some of them. In the past weeks, I got a lot of questions from customers around the recently released Unified Update Platform (UUP). Hello everyone! I´m Stefan Röll, Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft Germany for Intune and Microsoft Configuration Manager.
