folderSoftwareDistribution
folder corruptionCaution: Setting Delete Software Distribution folder to Yes or Backup automatically restarts the services for Microsoft Automatic Updates and BITS. HP warns against setting this option if the service restarts will cause issues in your environment, especially for those customers who are using both HPCA Patch Management and Automatic Updates as co-located patch solutions.
Caution: If you do not supply a -mib option, the patch agent will behave as if you selected the -mib Yes option, which is resource intensive.
Click Save to set the configuration options. The Patch Agents will receive the new configuration the next time they connect to the HPCA servers.
