Hi Team,

While creating Groups we have a session called OS Patch Management. Where under that we have settings only for Windows and macOS nodes, so we need to know for Linux which is the recommended settings to be used?

Can you please confirm if these settings applicable for Linux OS? if yes, what are the recommended settings to be used?

If this Session is not applicable, then what settings do we need to be set?

Thanks,

Shoaib

Hello,

There are no linux management group options that can be set, and the two listed options don’t impact linux at all.
Automox recommends disabling auto-updates on the endpoints (respective to each package manager settings).

The update source relies on the configured repos on the endpoints. Automox can be used to configure repos if you would like via Worklet policies.
