44| Using Deep Freeze Configuration Administrator Windows Update Tab Deep Freeze Enterprise User Guide The Windows Update tab allows you to customize settings for Windows Update. When you first create a Windows Update Task, you will be given an option to modify the default settings in the Windows Update tab. Modifying the default settings is not mandatory. Windows Update will be performed even with the default settings. The settings in the Windows Update tab will apply to all Windows Update tasks. The Deep Freeze Windows Update tab settings override the Windows Update settings on the workstation. The settings in the Windows Update tab can be customized as follows: Allow Deep Freeze to choose how Windows updates are downloaded: —select this check box to allow Deep Freeze to choose how Windows updates are downloaded. The following options are available: • Select the Windows Updates download options: — Do not cache Windows updates — select this option to download Windows updates only during the Windows Update task. — Cache Windows updates —select this option to download when the workstation is in a Frozen or Thawed state and install during the Windows Update Task. This option creates a 2 GB ThawSpace and the Windows Updates are stored in the ThawSpace to ensure that Windows Update files are persistent across multiple reboots.
Windows Update Tab| 45 • Always retrieve updates from: — Microsoft Windows Update website —select this option to download updates directly from the Microsoft Windows Update web site. — Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) — select this option to download from WSUS server. Specify the SUS/WSUS Server. Optionally, select Use WSUS Target and specify the target. Microsoft SUS client and SUS/WSUS server can be downloaded at: http://www.microsoft.com/wsus. A log file is created for each individual workstation and is stored locally on the workstation. The default name for the Deep Freeze Windows Update Log file is DFWuLogfile.log and can be found at: C:\Program Files\Faronics\Deep Freeze\Install C-[X]\DFWuLogfile.log (32-bit systems) and C:\Program Files (x86)\Faronics\Deep Freeze\Install C-[X]\DFWuLogfile.log (64-bit systems). • You cannot change the name or location of the log file. • The Deep Freeze Log file and the Windows Update log file (at c:\windows\windowsupdate.log) are very useful for troubleshooting your Windows updates. • X is an incremental value depending on how many times you have installed Deep Freeze on the workstation. Contact Faronics Support for help troubleshooting the DFWuLogfile.log (at http://support.faronics.com). Contact Microsoft Support for troubleshooting Windows Update Errors.
