An administrator finds that scans on virtual machines that were part of a recently
completed remediation show that they are still non-compliant. The remediation shows
that it completed successfully on the remaining virtual machines. Which of the following
are possible causes (Choose Two)?
A.
The updates that are part of the baseline are not applicable to the affected virtual
machines

baseline

Explanation:
Administration Guide Update Manager, page 32.
Remediated Updates Continue to be NonCompliant
For Windows virtual machines, check the registry to ensure that the updates were not
installed. Search for the Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) number that pertains to the
update in question. These numbers are in:
* The virtual machine’s registry in: HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftUpdatesKB Number
* The virtual machine’s file system in: C:WindowsNTUninstallKB Number
Common explanations for this problem include:
* Insufficient disk space for Service Pack installation. Retry remediation after freeing up
disk space.
* Conflicts with running applications. Reboot the virtual machine and then retry the
remediation operation.
