Offline versus online Update Verification

We currently use the code below to verify that a QFE is installed properly

after it is installed online. We want to do the same thing after installing

QFEs offline. Is there a way to do this programatically, similar to this

method? What we have found is that no offline applied QFEs show up in this

method currently. They do however appear in the Installed updates in the

control panel. They also show up in WMI, but there is no flag for either

operation or resultcode. In order to keep our global community comfortable

that the updates are applied properly we need to log that the installs were

successful programatically.

Set objSession = CreateObject("Microsoft.Update.Session")

Set objSearcher = objSession.CreateUpdateSearcher

intHistoryCount = objSearcher.GetTotalHistoryCount

'Wscript.Echo intHistoryCount

Set colHistory = objSearcher.QueryHistory(1, intHistoryCount)

For Each objEntry in colHistory

Wscript.Echo "Operation: " & objEntry.Operation

Wscript.Echo "Result code: " & objEntry.ResultCode

Wscript.Echo "Date: " & objEntry.Date

Wscript.Echo "Title: " & objEntry.Title

Wscript.Echo "Description: " & objEntry.Description

Wscript.Echo "Client application ID: " & objEntry.ClientApplicationID

Wscript.Echo "Server selection: " & objEntry.ServerSelection

Wscript.Echo "Service ID: " & objEntry.ServiceID

i = 1

For Each strStep in objEntry.UninstallationSteps

Wscript.Echo i & " -- " & strStep

i = i + 1

Next

Wscript.Echo "Uninstallation notes: " & objEntry.UninstallationNotes

Wscript.Echo "Support URL: " & objEntry.SupportURL

Wscript.Echo

Next
