msu files ignoring /quiet /norestart - 11/24/2008 9:33:30 AM

Status: offline 		hi guys,

I'm installing Windows Server 2008 x64 using SCCM 2007 sp1, using MDT integration I've prepared a Task Sequence which checks variables on my chosen computer and based on them installs some hotfixes required for certain applications as part of the install, that works fine and the hotfixes get installed however the hotfixes themselves (windows updates in MSU format) are ignoring the /quiet /norestart switch and restarting after each hotfix is installed,

so... I looked at the SMSTS log and could see where it's calling the hotfixes but it doesn't mention the reboot inbetween each hotfix getting installed,

how do i figure out why the hotfixes are rebooting the installation ?

I'm installing the hotfixes using

wusa "someKB123456.msu" /quiet /norestart

cheers

as you can see from above, the hotfixes were installed no problem and a reboot was done even though i specified /norestart

so what I am missing ?

You have missed nothing and the switches used to install hotfixes are correct.
 
I will also check it and confirm.
 
Thanks.

For kicks I might try swapping the switches around so that it's "/norestart /quiet".

I'd also check the .MSU files themselves. Try right-clicking on one and look at the file's Properties. Do you need to click the "Unblock" button?
