This post we discuss how to update your Windows 8.1 image with Update 1 in SCCM 2012 R2.
In most environments this update isn't downloaded automatically with any ADR(due to the update classifications set in it). You need to manually download the update.
Also, make sure that at least the KB2919442 update has been installed (servicing stack update) in your image.
First, open the SCCM 2012 console. Navigate to Software Library > Software Updates > All Software updates. Search for KB2919355 and hit enter (this is the Update 1 update). Rightclick it, and select download.
Then, choose the deployment package you want to use.
In the example, we chose Windows 8.1 monthly updates.
Click Next
Click Next
If needed, select extra languages. Then click next when done.
Check the overview to see what actions are going to be done. Click Next.
You can monitor the progress bar (this can take some time because the update is about 700 MB)
Once done, you should receive a screen looking like the one below.
Now rightclick the update, and select 'Edit Membership'. Choose the ADR rule you want, and select OK.
Now you can add the update to an image using Offline Servicing. Go to Software Library > Operating Systems > Operating System Images. Rightclick the image you want to update, and select Schedule Updates.
Select the update and click Next
Set the scheduling settings as you desire, and click Next
Confirm the settings, click Next
Monitor the progress.
Once done, click Close
Check the update status in the OfflineServiceMgr.log
Once that's finished, you succesfully integrated/slipstreamed the Update 1 rollup in your Windows 8.1 image :)
