rejectedPatchesAction

The action for Patch Manager to take on patches included in the RejectedPackages list.

  • ALLOW_AS_DEPENDENCY: A package in the Rejected patches list is installed only if it is a dependency of another package. It is considered compliant with the patch baseline, and its status is reported as InstalledOther. This is the default action if no option is specified.

  • BLOCK: Packages in the RejectedPatches list, and packages that include them as dependencies, aren't installed under any circumstances. If a package was installed before it was added to the Rejected patches list, it is considered non-compliant with the patch baseline, and its status is reported as InstalledRejected.
