    Hi,

    To change the frequency of SCOM agent version updates on agent-managed computers, you can consider the following steps based on the information available:

    1. Adjust SCOM Settings: You may need to adjust settings within SCOM to change the frequency of agent updates. This could involve modifying the update schedule or configuring the update settings for each agent-managed computer.
    2. Use PowerShell Scripts: Utilize PowerShell scripts to configure SCOM Agent updates as part of a compliance check or post-install step.
    3. Manual Updates: If automatic updates are not feasible, you can manually apply Update Rollup patch files to agents using commands like msiexec.exe.
