That's what I was recommending to the folks that manage the VDI image, but they don't want to have install/uninstall the SCCM client.
Unless management wants to force them to use the current system, looks like I'll be building a standalone WSUS server for them. Thanks for the feedback.

The big benefit is we get to use the same SUPs for patching our normal images.

However they do need it to be patched on a monthly basis. Is it possible to set the WSUS location in the registry and point it to the SCCM/WSUS server for manual windows updates? I know the updates aren't approved in WSUS but in SCCM. Can you approve with updates in WSUS without it affecting SCCM SUP patch distributions? Is this advisable? Appreciate any input from anyone that has tried this before or knows if this can be done. Thanks.
