SMA and Dell Command | Update
Hello,
I think I am missing something. We are trying to use the SMA to manage system updates. However, our workstations are getting Dell Command | Update and running updates themselves. This is conflicting with the SMA recommendations. Yet I cannot figure out how to disable DCU from within KACE so KACE can handle them, and I do not have access on the workstation due to PCI restricted configurations from Group Policies.
Any ideas? I appreciate thoughts as I continue to research.
Thank you.
Laura

Hello,
You also have the option to remove DCU as kace does not depend on it to install Dell updates.
I suggest scripting an uninstall for DCU, if your department agrees.

DCU was not in the Software Catalog. So I have added it and marked it as NOT ALLOWED. This should prevent it from running and allow our Kace Dell Updates system to manage updates from now on.
I am still unsure how to manage future version, as I had to add all the versions that were installed. But it is a start. - lnicholsmw 4 years ago
