HI.
Not sure if this is the correct forum, but i have an issue where we have a MW setup on monthly recurring schedules for monthly patching.
A system had a mandatory deadline and failed on an update.
A few days past and somehow a 30 min MW was applied to the system, and the system then retried that failed update, succeeded, and rebooted.
The ServiceWindowManager.log shows the next scheudled MW:
Scheduled the timer to fire on 10/16/14 00:00:00 ServiceWindowManager 9/19/2014 12:12:29 AM 6692 (0x1A24)
And then yesterday this occurred:
OnIsServiceWindowAvailable called with: Runtime:1800, Type:4 ServiceWindowManager 9/23/2014 11:01:55 AM 10716 (0x29DC)
I have confirmed that there are no other MW possible affecting this system, it is in no other collections.
There are no entries in the policyagent.log aside from its regular scheduled polling.
I am trying to figure out if the Type = 4 means anything, as most of the scheduled MW in the logs areType = 3
I’ve run a SQL query and no MW are listed for this server, aside from the monthly.
Any ideas how how to track down, or where this MW would have come from?
