Your network consists of a single Active Directory domain. All domain controllers run Windows Server 2008 R2. All servers run Windows Server 2008 R2. All client computers run Windows 7.
You need to generate a monthly report on the status of software updates for the client computers.
Your solution must meet the following requirements:
– Display all of the operating system updates that installed successfully
– Display all of the Microsoft application updates that installed successfully
– Display all of the operating system updates that failed to install
– Display all of the Microsoft application updates that failed to install
– Minimize administrative effort
– Minimize costs
What should you do?
A.
Install Microsoft System Center Essentials (Essentials) 2007. Deploy management agents on all client computers.
B.
Install Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SysMgr) 2007. Deploy management agents on all client computers.
C.
Install Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) 3.0 SP2. Configure Windows Update by using a Group Policy object (GPO).
D.
Deploy Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) 2.1 on the client computers. Run MBSA on each client computer, and save the report to a shared folder on the network.

Improved handling of language selection for downstream servers includes a new warning dialog that appears when you decide to download updates only for specified languages.
New Update and Computer Status reports let you filter updates that are approved for installation. You can run these reports from the WSUS administration console or use the application programming interface (API) to incorporate this functionality into your own reports.Windows Update Agent improvements
Client computer scan time is faster than previous versions.Computers that are managed by WSUS servers can now run scoped scans against those servers, instead of performing a full scan. This results in faster scans for applications that use Microsoft Update APIs such as Windows Defender.
User experience improvements help users organize updates and provide greater clarity on update value and behavior.
Imaged computers are more clearly displayed in the WSUS administration console.
