Feature Request for AUSST - Operating System Filter

My AUSST server only services Windows clients, it will only ever service Windows clients.  Over half of the disk space is consumed by Apple / OSX updates.

Can we get a filter for operating system built into AUSST?  I’ve seen this asked for as much as 6 years ago.

    Hi @defaultmstd44p5if50,



    Thank you for reaching out, and six years is a long time.

    To confirm directly, AUSST does not currently support filtering by operating system or platform. The supported mechanism, --filterProducts, filters by product and version only; both platforms sync together regardless. See Filtering Adobe apps with the Adobe Update Server Setup Tool.


    We will share this request directly with the product team. This is exactly the kind of recurring, specific ask that benefits from being reinforced when it resurfaces.


    Thanks,
    Tariq

    Thank you.  It will save me an estimated 700GB on my AUSST server.
