UMDS Shared Repository with IIS Virtual Directory

[Dan_Johnson]

Hi All,

I have a question regarding UMDS

I have a network which is not connected to the network and has a high number of virtual centers running on it.

I'm going to build a server with IIS, create a Virtual Directory website and have all my VUMs connect to the virtual directory as a shared repository.

I will be exporting the patches from a UMDS server that IS connected to the internet & dumping them on the IIS Servers Virtual Directory using physical media.

My question is, even though my IIS server won't have internet access and I won't be downloading pacthes from it, will I still need UMDS installed on the IIS Server for it to function as my Shared Repository Source?
