SCCM 2012 Site Recovery and number of issues with Windows Updates for Clients

[mkhan]

Please help...........

 

I had to do SCCM 2012 Recovery due to disaster and now having some confusing issues around Windows Updates for Clients

The main issue is some of my Windows Clients are not seeing Windows Updates but others are getting OK.
I have multiple of device collections based on OS, All Windows7, Windows 2008, Windows 2003, Windows 2012 etc.

What are NOT working?
1. I have deployed Windows Updates on all Device Collections. Except Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Collections are not getting any updates. Deployment Status is showing all Clients under Unknown tab as client check passed/Active. Client cannot see any updates at all.

 

What are working?
1. Windows are installing correctly (don’t know how) on Windows 2012 and Windows 2003 device collection
2. I have also created on Software group with IE updated and deployed to Windows 7 device collection, which worked OK
3. Application/Software updates are working OK

What I have done:

1. I have started a TechNet forum discussion before but I have closed it as I thought my problem has resolved, which is not the casehttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/dd02da59-2a15-42a7-b665-8578daca60d9/after-site-recovery-sccm-2012-clients-cannot-download-approved-windows-updates?forum=configmanagergeneral&prof=required
2. I have noticed that my boundaries are not correctly represented my Windows 7 clients VLANs, which should only impact on machines on new VLAN but machines in existing VLAN should get Windows Updates without any trouble. Having says that server VLAN remains unchanged but Windows Updates are not happening for Windows 2008 device collections
3. I have not started Windows OS deployment via SCCM yet but I noticed that the self-signed certificate has already expired and status is UNBLOCKED. (Administration>Security>Certificates) and also expired certificate is showing (Administration>Distribution Points> properties> under General Tab
Because some of the Device Collection Windows Updates is happening successfully, it think this is only related, if I want to Push Windows OS deployment or I may wrong.

4. Also my Client Setting Property is showing "Fales" under Software Updates "When any software update deployment deadline is reached, install all other software update deployment with deadline coming within a specific period of time. Should it be " True"?

I also can see the following error in WindowsUpdate.log

This is not really easy reading... What I did see in your WindowsUpdate log file is that it's scanning for updates and finding them. The errors in there are only about the self update of the client... Did you check all the abvious things, like if the targeted updates are available in packages?

[mkhan]

Thanks Peter,

 

I recreate software package with the update for the month, select "download from Intranet" for the distribution server and select all clients to download from the distribution point.

 

 

When I check Contest Status, i saw some of the software group size is showing "0" but compliance 100% . Not sure why? So to test it I have created a new software deployment package and deploy to a test container. I had 47 updates in that software group. After the end of the deployment process, I have received notification that deployment and download was successful. Interestingly when I check the folder, where all update supposed to be download has only one update. Again not sure- why. After that i have selected the software group and select download and gone through the process. It shows lots of "Staging of update" and I can see lots of entry in the container folder. again, i was expecting 47 items but instead I can see 82 entry. Please tell me what I am missing and how I can be sure all updates download from Internet to the distribution point correctly.

 

 

Please help me to understand the product and solve update deployment mistry

[Peter van der Woude]

The nice thing is that the client will only download the files that it really needs. So are you sure that some updates don't require multiple folders/ files?

[mkhan]

I thought, my clients can't download the updates from the distribution point because distribuion can't download every update it suppose download. I make sure it downloaded and now I am checking WindowsUpate.log and fond that my client can't see any approved updates. I am lost.....................

Is the client can't find Windows Sourch Patche fildes from the distribution list? or the issue is with WSUS or someting else. I am lost.

I have also checked the WSUS, and all the clients are showing in just one group "Unassigned" Is it expected from WSUS and managed all through SCCM?

You would be better attaching the log files themselves, rather than pasting the contents, it means we can open them in log viewers which makes reading them much easier.

 

If they are too large for the forum, post to dropbox/gdrive/onedrive etc.

in my ScanAgent log, I have noticed the it is givenign Sources are not current

As I have said prviously that I had to recover this SCCM from Database due to a major failure. During the recovery process, I had a critical error, which is still showing in the compoment status.

But my Software Update Point Synchronization Status is showing "completed".

 

I have checked the locationService.log, where I can't see WSUS Path and Distribution Point entry, is it suppose to be there for SCCM 2012 client? I have confirmed that local comptuer Windows Update Policy is enabled with correct Update server detail.

My WUAHandler.log is saying that it has found an existing WUA server.
