Has anyone seen this odd behavior? Patches enabled for target which contains a system. Ran vulnerability report 4 days later and noticed no patches had applied. Remoted to the system and performed an configuration Update through the client interface. Nothing happened. Did it again within a few minutes. Configuration updated and software update policies downloaded. I have seen this behavior on numerous servers in the past couple of months. Systems are setup to request configuration every hour and report they are doing so. Nothing strange in the logs. The manual configuration update can be run using RAAD, the client widget on the servers, or by a task, but it appears to need 2 in rapid sequence to trigger the policy download.
We have been running SMP 7.5.3153 (I believe that is 7.5 SP1 HF3) since November, 2014.
