Hi Krystal,
"PathesDir" is the path to where the patch (.msp) file(s) reside. The file path can be a local directory or a share, and can contain more than one .msp. PowerShell will detect all the .msp files in the path and proceed to install them.
Example:
"Portal": {
"LicenseFilePath": "[License File Path - Portal ]",
"PortalLicenseUserTypeId": "[Portal License User Type Id- Required for 10.7 and above]",
"Installer": {
"Path": "[Portal Installer Path]",
"WebStylesPath": "[Optional Parameter starting ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7.1 - Portal Web Styles Installer Path]",
"InstallDir": "[Portal Install Dir - Ex. C:\\ArcGIS\\Portal]",
"ContentDir": "[Portal Content Dir for Install- Ex. C:\\portalforarcgis\\content]",
"PatchesDir": "C:\\portal_patches"
},
Once installed you can find the patch(es) listed within Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features -> Installed Updates.
