Many of our customers have encountered an issue with the USPS Outgoing mandatory patch that was pushed this weekend. This email serves as an update on what we have learned about that issue.
What we know so far: The source of the issue was discovered. The software we use to push the patch attempted to push multiple versions of the same patch, often resulting in none of the versions installing properly.
Steps moving forward: Support agents are fixing the issue on all sites. If you are experiencing difficulty and have not reached out to EII Customer Support yet, please call in so we can get you up and running again. All steps taken are being documented to keep this issue from affecting future patches. There will be no more hourly updates at this point.

What we know so far: Not all sites that received the patch have experienced the issue with their shortcuts, and we suspect that there was an error in how KACE pushed the patch to customers.
Steps moving forward: Support agents are working with customers to check system versions on all machines, remove any updates that failed to install correctly, and reinstall the patch. Until the underlying problem is found, we will continue to send hourly updates.
