Which Updates did my clients install?

-

i have started testing wsus 3 in domain environment.  have created 2 test groups, each receive different updates.  can see each group has received updates scheduled , seems working fine.  however, have 1 question.

being have not disqualified updates @ all, there more 1500 available updates on server @ time.  can see 1 of machines installed approximately 24 updates based on needed updates number has decreased number.  however, because i approved great number of updates that group of computers, includes different versions of office, etc.  how can tell updates where installed on each machine?

please advise, or ask clarification.


thanks,

this level of administrative detail pretty hit wall wsus.

there couple of other options may meet needs...

[1] if you're running wsus on actual sql server 2005 instance, can use sql server 2005 report builder develop customized reports. see p66 of wsus operations guide additional information.

[2] develop customized application using wsus api, wua api, , wmi.

[3] might candidate eminentware wsus add-on package. (http://www.eminentware.com)
