Is this only for upgrades or can happen also for monthly security patches?
I have this error too
This applies to all UUP updates, including the monthly cumulative updates.
I have this problem too and with your great article, I could solve this problem.
Thank you very much for this :).
I have only one problem. Normally, in the WsusContent folder, only the metadata of the updates is saved when using SCCM. But since I activated the Automatic Approvment in WSUS, the size of WsusContent folder is increasing continuosly, because I activated also for montly updates, because I also had the problems with them.
Do you have an idea, how I can get it running without having a very big WsusContent folder ?
Or do I have to increase the WsusContent folder and save all updates two times (SCCMContentLib and WsusContent folder) ?
Yes, that’s a good point. You have two options: either you occasionally run the “Server Cleanup Wizard” in WSUS manually, or you automate it using a scheduled task with a script.
Okay, but as long as the updates are approved and deployed in SCCM, I should not clean up these updates, or will the updates continue to work when they have been approved in WSUS once?
Did you get my second question ? I mistakenly posted it as a new comment rather than a reply…
