How to Automate KB5040434 Installation on Multiple VMs?

Set Up Azure Automation Account:
Create an Azure Automation account if you don't already have one.
Ensure it has the necessary permissions to manage the VMs.
2. Configure Update Management:
Link your Azure Automation account to the Update Management solution.
Update Management allows you to manage updates for both Windows and Linux VMs.
Since your environment restricts internet access, ensure that your VMs can access your internal WSUS server or another local update repository.
3. Create a Scheduled Deployment:
In Update Management, create a new update deployment.
Select the group of VMs where you want to apply the KB5040434 update.
Since your environment restricts internet access, make sure to choose the option to install updates from your local WSUS server.
Schedule the deployment to run at a specific time.
4. Automate the Process:
Use the Azure Automation Runbooks to script the entire update process, including the restart of VMs after the update is installed.
You can write a PowerShell script that checks for the presence of the KB5040434 update and installs it if necessary.
Here's a sample snippet you can adapt:
powershell
Kodu kopyala
# Sample PowerShell script to install KB5040434
$kb = "KB5040434"
$update = Get-WindowsUpdate -KBArticleID $kb -ComputerName $env:COMPUTERNAME

if (-not $update) {
Write-Output "KB5040434 not found. Installing..."
Install-WindowsUpdate -KBArticleID $kb -AcceptAll -AutoReboot
} else {
Write-Output "KB5040434 is already installed."
}
