Unexpected server reboots - KB2992611


hi guys

something strange appears have happened morning.

we use wsus keep windows servers date , have group policy set servers check updates @ 7am on sunday.

our downtime window every 3rd sunday tend approve unapproved updates on thursday/friday beforehand , servers check updates , reboot if necessary on sunday expected

last week told our security team needed patch kb2992611 urgently. went ahead , set update approved , set deadline of 16/11/2014 @ 7am.

on sunday afternoon ran report against kb2992611 , saw servers had reported had been installed successfully.

however, i've come in morning , several servers have rebooted @ 7am today. having checked wsus looks kb2992611 has been released has release date of 18/11/2014. update had deadline set 16/11/2014 why servers rebooted?

if true mean if updates rereleased after deadline has been set servers reboot?

can imagine can't allow servers reboot outside of our downtime need clear deadline set on installed updates?

many thanks

robbie

thanks input everybody.

no more servers have rebooted since marked update unapproved think servers ok until our next downtime (3rd sunday in december).

i don't understand how microsoft can justify 'tricking' wsus thinking new 'rereleased' update approved. should have given new kb number.
