UX usually means ‘user experience’, but you’ve got some other key words in 
there like, ‘AU’ and ‘interactive’.  Do these servers have Automatic Updates 
Group Policy applied anywhere?

In c:\windows\ccm\logs you should be able to see stuff around the scan in 
updatesdeployment.log, scanagent.log, datatransferservice.log, 
updateshandler.log, updatesstore.log and wuahandler.log to see all of the 
updates.

Also, in windowsupdate.log you should see more stuff like this:

That 5th column in yours shows ‘AU’ which typically means Auto Update, and not 
‘Agent’  like mine above which should be your sccm client doing stuff.

Looks to me like they did what they were told, it just wasn’t SCCM.  Maybe WSUS 
via Group Policy?

Subject: [mssms] Software Updates Applied to Servers Without Approval

I configured a Software Update Group to deploy to a group of servers this past 
weekend.  A number of other servers ended up installing the updates.  I have:

1. Checked the collection (which I have since deleted) to ensure the correct 
servers were added.
2. Checked the Properties of the servers that received the updates (even though 
they shouldn’t have) and there were NO deployments in the Deployments tab.
3. Checked reports and they tell me the updates were required, but there was no 
check mark under “Approved”
4. Checked for Duplicate GUIDs and there are none that apply.
5. Checked the Windows Update log file and see the following:
                “2015-05-25        10:26:07:179       1224       5b5c       AU  
        AU received approval from UX for 43 updates
2015-05-25          10:26:07:179       1224       5b5c       AU          AU 
setting pending client directive to 'Progress Ux'
2015-05-25          10:26:07:303       1224       5b5c       AU          
BeginInteractiveInstall invoked for Download
2015-05-25          10:26:07:303       1224       5b5c       AU          
Auto-approving update for download, updateId = 
{0087DF01-B453-4F5E-B5B4-E61911BCF5A8}.200, ApprovalIsForUx=1, UpdateOwner=UX, 
HasDeadline=0, IsMinor=0” – which indicates something approved them, but I am 
not sure what “UX” means.

Is there anywhere on the client itself where I can see something to the effect 
“I am supposed to apply these updates and it’s because I am in this 
collection”?  I have been using PolicySpy and checking PolicyEvaluator and 
PolicyAgent but have yet to come across why these updates got approved for 
these systems.  I am usually pretty good at tracking down my own mistakes, but 
this one has me stumped.

Thanks.
