Use the Sync Schedule page in the Configuration Manager 2007 New Site Role Wizard or New Site Server Wizard to specify whether the software update point is configured for synchronization on a schedule. The synchronization schedule is a site-wide setting and the Sync Schedule page is available only at the highest site in the Configuration Manager 2007 hierarchy with an active software update point that synchronizes with Microsoft Update. If this software update point is configured to synchronize with an upstream server, this page is hidden and the synchronization schedule is based on the configured site-wide schedule settings.

This page contains the elements as described in the following table.
