Doesn't matter, that's unsupported. Fix the real issue and get those systems managed by ConfigMgr - you're addressing a symptom and not the problem as well as increasing your workload, dividing your reporting, and minimizing the effectiveness of ConfigMgr as a whole.

That role is one of those easily re-installed should it get broken. Wouldn't bother with NLB or cluster. Single SUP, no other role, for 100'000 clients is what we do.

When integrated into ConfigMgr, the only thing in this folder are EULAs and the infrastructure updates (like Windows Installer 3.1). Updates themselves are *not* stored in this folder so why go through any of this?
