Yes, but you can APPLY by SOURCEID(RSU*).
Right now, I just RECEIVE ORDER CONTENT(RECOMMENDED), whatever comes
back comes back, and I APPLY *all* of it with a "canned" job stream
that's always the same. Simple.
The suggestion seems to be to use RECEIVE ORDER CONTENT(ALL) and then
selectively manage what comes back. I become the one who decides which
fixes have undergone enough testing and which have not. I have to keep
track of these numbered/dated RSUs to help understand which fixes I want
and which I don't. And, I have to be sure to specify the right RSU
value(s) at APPLY time.
From where I sit, this process sounds like extra work. Clearly, this is
a job to be undertaken by a professional sysprog--something I've never
claimed to be.
I think I'll stick with simple...
If you want to apply all RSU maintenance, you can specify
RSU* on the APPLY.
Is CONTENT(RECOMMENDED) different than RSU?
