117
Q

WSUS

What is express installation?

A

Anwser: It only downloads the differences between the new version and the old version to install the update.

Explination:

The express installation files feature is an update distribution mechanism. You can use express installation files to limit the bandwidth consumed on your local network, but at the cost of bandwidth consumption on your Internet connection. By default, WSUS does not use express installation files. To better understand the tradeoff, you first have to understand how WSUS updates client computers.

Updates typically consist of new versions of files that already exist on the computer being updated. On a binary level these existing files might not differ very much from updated versions. The express installation files feature is a way of identifying the exact bytes that change between different versions of files, creating and distributing updates that include just these differences, and then merging the original file with the update on the client computer. Sometimes this is called delta delivery because it downloads only the difference, or delta, between two versions of a file.

118
Q

WSUS

What is deferred installation?

A

Answer: Only downloads Metadata for updates, once approved it downloads the update

In depth description:

You can approve updates, and download the update metadata before you download the update files, this method is called deferred downloads. When you defer downloads, an update is downloaded only after it is approved. We recommend that you defer downloads because it optimizes network bandwidth and disk space.
