We can export downloaded patch data from the repository used by the UMDS to a shared location so that the Update Manager server can be configured to use this shared location.
To export the downloaded patch data to a shared repository, issue the following command:
Syntax:
vmware-umds -E --export-store repository_path
Example:
vmware-umds -E --export-store C:\PatchRepo vmware-umds -E --export-store \\vcenterhost001\atvc
