Yes, they do.  I have ADR's that reuse the same SUG for each OS and SCEP 
definitions, and in ruleengine.log every patch Tuesday you can see lines after 
the ADR's run that look like this

"Updates Count in Old Deployment (448) is different from Current Rule 
Evaluation (452). Deployment is not current."

So each time the ADR runs because I exclude expired and superseded it downloads 
everything that's not expired and superseded then updates the SUG and the 
deployment (because I re-use both every month) with the new list each run of 
the ADR.  Last month there were many more updates that 4, but when the ADR runs 
it doesn't pick up the expired and superseded ones and gets the new ones so for 
August I netted only 4 updates between those that were expired and superseded 
and the new ones.  That was the count of Windows 8.1 updates on 8/19 when I ran 
the ADR to pick up the IE OOB.

I forget where I saw this little fact, but it was around the time that 
everybody was getting used to updates in SCCM 2012.  I want to say it was a 
blog post of some kind by a MS person, but I can't be sure.

I only have 11 ADRs and 11 SUGs for our whole infrastructure.  Each Windows OS, 
server and desktop, Office, and SCEP.  I have more than one deployment using 
those SUGs of course, some required some not, but everything gets updated and 
cleaned out automagically every month, I just watch it happen.

Subject: [mssms] Do ADRs clean up SUGs automatically?

Just a lack of understanding on my part but I can't find any information about 
why this would be happening - I have an ADR setup for SCEP definitions running 
once a day. Whenever I look at the SUG it has the current definition update and 
the previous, superseded one; that's all. What process cleans out the old 
updates because I would've expected to see every superseded/expired definition 
update since the dawn of time in there.

Daniel.
