The Set-CMSoftwareUpdateAutoDeploymentRule cmdlet modifies an automatic deployment rule (ADR) for software updates. To get an existing rule, use the Get-CMSoftwareUpdateAutoDeploymentRule cmdlet.
Configuration Manager uses rules to manage automatic deployment of software updates.
When a rule runs, Configuration Manager adds updates that qualify for the rule to a software update group.
The Configuration Manager server downloads content files and copies them to distribution points, and then updates client computers.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Modify the language selection and name of a rule
This command modifies the automatic deployment rule named DeploymentRule07. It specifies Portuguese (Brazil) for the Windows software update files that the site downloads. The command also changes the name of the rule to DeploymentRule07Revised.
This example changes the ADR to use the Language criteria for three languages: English, Hungarian, and Chinese (Simplified, PRC). It also changes to these languages for the Windows and Office 365 update binaries to download.
Indicates whether the rule adds to an existing update group. If this value is $True, each time the rule runs and finds new updates, it adds them to an existing update group. If this value is $False, it creates a new update group. Specify the existing update group or assign a name for the new update group by using the DeploymentPackageName parameter.

-AllowRestart
Indicates whether to allow a computer to restart if the update deployment takes place outside of a maintenance window. A maintenance window is a specified period of time used for computer maintenance and updates.
If this value is $True, Configuration Manager restarts the computer, if necessary, to complete the update.
If this value is $False, Configuration Manager doesn't restart the computer.
Indicates whether the update deployment takes place even if scheduled outside of a maintenance window. A maintenance window is a specified period of time used for computer maintenance and updates.
If this value is $True, Configuration Manager deploys the update even the scheduled time falls outside the service window.
If this value is $False, Configuration Manager doesn't deploy the update outside the service window. It waits until it can deploy in a service window.

Tip
If you run this cmdlet on a computer where Windows has a localized UI, the language names may be different. For example, the English version of Windows uses "Danish", but the Danish version of Windows uses "Dansk".
You currently can't specify with this parameter all of the languages that are available in the Configuration Manager console. For example, you can't specify "Irish (Ireland)" or "Maltese (Malta)".
Starting in version 2103, you need to specify a language with a country/region name. This change aligns this parameter with the options in the Configuration Manager console. For example, -O365LanguageSelection "English (United States)"

-UpdateDeploymentWaitDay
The Set-CMSoftwareUpdateAutoDeploymentRule cmdlet modifies an automatic deployment rule (ADR) for software updates. To get an existing rule, use the Get-CMSoftwareUpdateAutoDeploymentRule cmdlet.
Configuration Manager uses rules to manage automatic deployment of software updates.
When a rule runs, Configuration Manager adds updates that qualify for the rule to a software update group.
The Configuration Manager server downloads content files and copies them to distribution points, and then updates client computers.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
