Scenario 6 - Deploying packages to client system repositories

An alternate to using a network shared drive repository, is to deploy packages to
client system repositories. Complete the following steps to deploy packages to
client system repositories:

Step 1 - Administrator system setup

Complete the following steps to set up your administrative system:
1.

Create a new folder on network shared drive or your administrative system to
be used as a repository for storing update packages.

2.

Launch Update Retriever and set the repository path.

Note:

Enter user name and password if required for the repository.

3.

Get new updates from the Lenovo Help Center Web site.

4.

Create another folder to be used as the client system repository.

5.

Using Update Retriever, import your packages into your client system
repository.

Note:

For additional information on how to import packages into a repository

folder, see “Importing an update package into network share repository” on
page 48.

6.

Push the folder being used as the client system repository out to client systems.

Step 2 - Configuring System Update on client systems

To configure System Update to download specific packages to client systems,
complete the following steps:
1.

On client systems, navigate to the following registry entry:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Lenovo\System Update\Preferences\
UserSetting\General\RepositoryLocation1

2.

Change this setting by replacing the default SUPPORTCENTER value to your
client system repository path. For example,

%ANYDRV%\SystemUpdate_repository\

Note:

You can also use Active Directory to deploy this registry change using

Group Policy. For more information about working with Active Directory and
Group Policy, see “Configuring System Update with Active Directory” on page
28.

Scenario 7 - Working with firewalls and the Scheduler function

When you utilize security programs with a firewall, ensure the security application
enables Internet access to the System Update Scheduler function. Complete the
following steps to allow access:
1.

From your firewall application, click Allow.

2.

Navigate to the following path: %PROGRAMFILES%\Lenovo\System Update

3.

Allow the following programs:
