WSUS Question - Rollups vs KBs

So, I have this rollup I pushed on 6/15 to all of my servers.  Inside that rollup is a KB - 4021903.  For reasons too long to explain, I need to know if that specific KB is installed on my servers.  I have figured out how to tell that.

My question is, if the KB is installed as part of a rollup, will it still show if I do a separate search for the KB?

Here's what's going on...I pushed out the rollup to ALL of my computers.  I know I did...I can look for the rollup in the approved patch list and it's there.  However, I ran a powershell, and a detailed report in WSUS and it looks like the KB is NOT installed on a large number of my servers.

When I run a report on all approved and installed updates, ALL of my servers except two are compliant.  BUT, when I run the detailed reports, and the powershell scripts, I see a large number of servers that do not have the KB in question.

So, I was thinking that since the KB is in the rollup, it might not show up as in a search for the standalone KB.

Am I right or wrong?

Thanks

Check the KB version/revisions, the rollup as you surmised is a bundle of updates, and should reflect each.when installed.

The KB that is now reflected as missing might be a revision past the one in the rollup, that might not have applied...
