Help!! Standalone SCCM 2012 SP1 + CU1 and WSUS 3.0 SP2

[arvin]

Hi all,

Update:

This question was too stupid to answer. Of course all updates needs to be downloaded by my server B before server A can grab the files and package it.

All good now.

cheers

Environment:

I have two server A and B.

A : Standalone Primary Site, Installed with SCCM 2012 SP1 CU1 + SQL 2008 R2 SP2 + WSUS 3.0 SP2 console only and all necessary updates

B: Site system server, installed with WSUS 3.0 SP2 and all necessary updates.

B server is configured with the "Software update Point" role. A isn't.

B server is configured through SCCM to sync with Microsoft Update and store it locally.

================================================================

B server had synchronized successfully with Microsoft and all updates appeared on Server A under "Software Library"

Step 1 from the SUP guide on this forum suggested to also install SUP on the primary server. "Note: Repeat the above on the Primary server P01."

However, it was a CAS and Primary Situation, which I don't think applicable to my setup.

I am planning to manage all Microsoft Updates through SCCM.

Do I need to install SUP on my SCCM server (Server A), in order to deploy Microsoft Updates to all clients?

If not, will they (server A and B sync automatically)?

When I try to create software deployment package, it's asking me about the "Package Source", "source location for software updates"

It failes when I tried to specifiy to download it from the internet or point it to the WSUS server contentshare.

What should I do??

From my remote WSUS server with SUP installed, Should I untick "Download update files to this server only when updates are approved"?

Update: From Microsoft Site: Configuring Software Updates in Configuration Manager

- The software update point is required on the central administration site and on the primary sites in order to enable software updates compliance assessment and to deploy software updates to clients. The software update point is optional on secondary sites. The software update point site system role must be created on a server that has WSUS installed.

- Starting with Configuration Manager SP1, you have the option to synchronize software updates from a WSUS server that is not in your Configuration Manager hierarchy.

- Sarting with Configuration Manager SP1, you have the option to add multiple software update points at a site.

For downloading the updates it uses the internet connection of the device, on which you are running the console.
