How do I get started?
Click Get started, then use Proto to configure Patch Management System for your business. Begin with one service, its assigned assets and a patch release. Rehearse a reviewed change and an asset-specific attempt before expanding the scope.
What does the patch catalog record?
It identifies the patch ID, title, product, version, severity and release date. The installation result lives on the attempt for an asset.
How do we know whether an asset received a patch?
Open the patch attempt for that asset and patch. Review its status and actual start and completion dates.
Can several assets use one patch catalog entry?
Yes. Each asset gets its own attempt linked to the same patch. Their outcomes can differ.
Where is the planned work window?
The change record holds scheduled start and end dates, risk and a rollback plan. Attempt records hold actual execution dates.
Who approves a service change?
Change Manager reviews the change with Service Owner and records the approval or rejection decision before implementation.
What happens when installation fails?
The attempt remains Failed or rolled back for review. If service was disrupted, Incident Responder records the affected service and asset in an incident.
How is a recurring cause followed?
Problem Analyst opens a problem for the service, assigns an owner and records the investigation and root cause separately from immediate incident response.
What do integration receipts show?
They show provider, external event ID, received time, payload hash and receipt outcome. Check the related operational record before treating an applied event as an installation result.
Where do service requests fit?
A request records its requester, service, timing and decision. A change and a patch attempt carry the separate approval and installation records when the request leads to patch work.
