About replicating Patch Management data

Downloading Microsoft and Adobe Patch Management Import files to multiple
Notification Servers can consume considerable network resources and time.
Notification Server hierarchy features remove the need to download Patch
Management Import files individually. You can download the files once to a single
parent Notification Server and then, with Patch Management replication rules,
send the relevant data to any number of child Notification Servers. The replicated
data on the child Notification Servers is identical to the data on the parent.
