Does UpdateEXPERT use Microsoft Qchain to deploy multiple patches?
In a word, No. UpdateEXPERT uses its own technology called “Smart Reboot Elimination” (SRE) which uses remediation database metadata to figure out how to group patches for deployment such that the number of reboots of a target is minimized. This is part of the database maintenance performed by St. Bernard Software remediation database staff. This “grouping” shows up in the “Install Wizard” as multiple patch deployment screens where you set options for overwriting OEM files, doing a quiet install etc. See “What is Smart Reboot Elimination?
