Remote Distribution Points for Software Update Point Site

Hi,
I have deployed Primary Site MP (SCCM 2012 R2) in the Main Office. In our environment, we have many remote offices with limited internet connection.
Is it best to setup Secondary Site in those remote offices or setup Distribution Points? What are the considerations?
Thanks.

You only install one SUP. You can't install a SUP on DP's, and you don't need to install WSUS on DP's either, just IIS.
The clients will need to connect to the SUP (port 8530) to get the windows update catalogue. If they can't connect to your MP and SUP directly, then you will need to check your proxy configuration on the clients
Once the client has performed a scan, it will then match what it determines are "required updates" against what you have deployed in its client policy.
The client then connects to the local DP to download the updates and install them.
The client only downloads policy from an MP. If you have a DP on the same server as the MP then clients may try to download updates if you don't have your content boundaries configured correctly, and have also allowed them to use a fallback location.
To prevent clients going over the WAN to download the updates, check your update deployment under the "Download Settings" tab and choose "Do not install software updates" on both the options, and make sure you have your content location
boundaries configured correctly with the DP at each remote site assigned to the correct boundary.

    hallo
    i need open port for the Software Update Point (wsus) ?
    thanks
    אם תגובתי פתרה את בעייתך - לחץ/י, על "סמן כתשובה" ליד סימן ה V הירוק.

  • Software Update Point Switching is not working for some Clients

    Hi there,
    I found nothing similar here and I hope this is the right section.
    I´m running ConfigMgr 2012 R2 where one of the Site Systems from one of the Primaries is located in an untrusted Forest in a perimeter Network. The Site System there has the MP, SUP and DB Roles. In general it works great. The Systems in that untrusted Forest
    get the SCCM Agent pushed, see and can install published Software packages and receive Windows Updates. But there are a few systems where everything works, except Windows Updates.
    So I had a deeper look at what is happening and found out that the SUP switching is not working for them. They always try to contact the SUP from the Primary, which they cannot reach (this is intended).
    From how I understand SUP switching as described here
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2013/03/27/software-update-points-in-cm2012sp1.aspx#pi140062=1
    the Windows Update Agent tries to connect to a SUP every 30 minutes and after 4 failed attempts he will try to connect to the next one until he finds one which works.
    As I said before, this seems to work for most systems in the untrusted forest, but some do not make any intentions to switch the SUP.
    So my next step was to find out from where the Update Agent can get the information of the available SUPs. I think they either don´t receive the information that other SUPs exist, or if the Information is there, they don´t realize that there´s an error and
    make no attempt to switch.
    I used the System Center Support Center to gather all Information from some of the systems with that problems (Log Files, WMI information, registry information, policies etc.) but I cannot find where SCCM or the Update Agent store the information which SUPs
    are available in my environment.
    I´m sure the problem is on the Systems which fail to connect to the right SUP and not in the SCCM infrastructure itself, because for most of the systems everything is working just perfect. Unfortunately in the Blog Post above there´s also no information
    where this information is stored and how it is obtained by the clients. In the comments there´s even one post which describes the same problem I have here, but there was no answer. I hope someone can point me into the right direction, because I´m stuck currently.
    Things I tried additionally to all the log file / WMI / registry sniffing:
    Removing the Software Distribution Folder and restarting the Windows Update Agent
    Removing the WindowsUpdate Registry folder in the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Windows section in the Registry and restarting the Windows Update Agent.
    Tried to reset the WUAgent with wuauclt /Resetauthorization additionally to the steps above.
    I also tried to manually set the WUServer and WUStatusServer Keys in the registry to the new Server, but as soon as the next Update Scan cycle runs, the value is set back to the URL of the Primary Sites SUP
    Is someone having additional ideas? It seems to me older systems are more affected (which were configured for a standard WSUS before SCCM 2012 was deployed) than newer ones which were installed when SCCM was in place already. But I don´t know what else to
    "reset" on those machines without reinstalling them.

    Thank you very much for your response. I must have missed that one by looking through numerous Logfiles. In this, there´s indeed a list of all available SUPs. So according to the LocationServices.log the machine should have a choice.
    The WMI Key however, contains just one entry and this is the URL of the Primaries SUP which is not reachable in the untrusted forest. Is it OK that the WMI entry includes only one entry? If yes, what process is putting the results from the LocationServices
    into WMI? It seems like the Windows Update Agent is feeded from the WMI Key then. If this is the case my problems seems to be the "communication path" between these two components.
    Is this the job from the SCCM Agent, the Windows Update Agent or maybe some third component I´m not aware of? I wonder how I can fix this.

    WSUS was installed and configured and work fine a few monthes ago as a part of the first try to install SUP before aplying SP 1 to SCCM.
    Both SCCM and WSUS are installed on the same server.
    now we want to deploy all updates from SCCM SUP, and the installation failed. 
    after researching online, uninstalled WSUS completely from the SCCM server, and removed SUP from the Site and rebooted the server.
    installed WSUS 3.0 SP2, when initial config of the WSUS popped up i canceled it, the only config i made
    is at the installation wizard, set the port to 8530, folders location and internal DB.
    >> i am able to open the WSUS console and connect to the "localhost" but no settings
    are configured.
    installed update 2734608, reboot.
    Installed SUP.
    and here we are.

  • Adding a Software Update Point to an existing WSUS install.

    I'm looking into migrating my existing WSUS server to SCCM but I have a couple issues that I need clarification on.
    I would like to configure SCCM to synchronize directly with Microsoft Updates in place of WSUS but I'm not sure how I would transition from it. With my current WSUS installed on the same server as my SCCM Primary Site, would I have to remove then reinstall
    WSUS so the Software Update Point can use WSUS properly?
    I also have two additional SCCM locations acting primarily as Distribution Points. I have no secondary sites. Would these two DPs replace the two WSUS downstream servers I have running? I am fully updated to the R2 version of SCCM2012 for reference. Thank
    you.

    Removing and reinstalling WSUS (including the database) would be the best option. WSUS is only used for scanning purposes; the updates will be downloaded from DPs - so those DPs will somehow replace downstream servers.

  • Software Update Point doesn't show Win 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 updates

    I started deploying Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter servers and some Windows 8.1 workstations. I wanted to make sure that my Software Update Point was downloading updates available to those OS's and after going in to Administration -> Overview -> Site Configuration
    -> Sites -> Configure Site Components -> Software Update Point, I notice that those OS's weren't available to select. 
    I then did some searches on the web and thought my problem was two fold:
    1 - I was using SCCM 2012 SP1. 
    2 - My SCCM 2012 Software Update Point was on a Win 2008 R2 server
    So the first thing I did was upgrade from SCCM 2012 SP1 to SCCM 2012 R2. I then created a Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter server and installed WSUS on it. I then added the server as a Site System Server, added the Software Update Point to it and configured it.
    Unfortunately, this still didn't help me as you can see from the screen shots below:
    What am I doing wrong and what needs to be done to have all the updated Operating Systems and Microsoft Software added to my Product list?
    Thanks... Frank

    To follow on to narcoticoo's statement, have you actually initiated a catalog sync from within the ConfigMgr console yet? If so, has it completed successfully (you can check the moniotring workspace or you can watch the wsyncmgr.log).

    I just ran a Synchronize Software Updates from ConfigMgr Console. I then went Monitoring -> Software Update Point Sync Status. It's showing my new WSUS server ( 2012 R2 ) but it's not showing any updates are being sync'd through it. See this screen shot:
    I then went to the wsyncmgr.log file on my site server which is the OLD WSUS server ( Win 2008 R2 ) and say this:

    It appears to me that when doing a Sync, it's still trying to use my OLD WSUS server instead of my new one. I removed the Software Update Point from the OLD WSUS server and uninstalled WSUS from it. I'm not sure why it's still trying to sync from the old
    server rather than the new one. Any ideas?
    Thanks... Frank

  • How to remove the parent-child software update point in sccm 2012 sp1

    I have a CAS , Primary site server(1) and secondary site servers (7). I have software update point installed on CAS, Primary server and Secondary site servers as well.
    I have a situation to reinstall the software update point which is in primary site server.
    So, How to reinstall the software update point in primary site server since this is located in the middle between CAS and secondary site servers.
    So, please suggest me, do I have to do anything special apart from the normal steps to uninstall and reinstall the SUP point on primary site server?

    Hi,
    >> please suggest me, do I have to do anything special apart from the normal steps to uninstall and reinstall the SUP point on primary site server?
    I just tried to reinstall the SUP on the Primary site(only one SUP on Primary site and there is a SUP on Secondary site). The SUP upstream data source of the Secondary site showed empty and greyed out. But the upstream data source resumed after a while.
    It seems nothing special needs to be done.

  • WSUS and Software Update Points

    Hi,  We are looking at expanding our use of Config Manager 2012 SP1 to handle all of our WSUS patching needs.   Today we use a local standalone WSUS install that is on the config manager server and have the software update point setup on this
    same config manager server.   We are using this setup to update a small collection of System Center machines.
    We also have a full blown wsus server on a different machine and this wsus server has been doing all of our patching for all the corporate servers/workstations,etc.
    we would like to start using this full blown wsus machine as our software update (wsus) synchronization source since it has much more space and is dedicated to Patching alone.
    Is it better for me to install a software update point on this full blown WSUS server, Or is it better for us to use this older WSUS server as an upstream synchronization source?    I have read that "The software update point site system
    role must be created on a server that has WSUS installed"
    If we are better off installing the software update point on the older WSUS server, does this have to be the first software update point installed?  Do I have to remove the software update point we setup initially on our config manager server and start
    over?    I ask because the technet documentation says "The first software update point that you install is configured as the synchronization source, which synchronizes the updates from Microsoft Update or from the upstream synchronization
    source."
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks Lance

    First, how many clients are you managing?
    Next, space is irrelevant. The WSUS instance once integrated into ConfigMgr does not handle updates, it only handles the update catalog. So no space is really needed except in the DB to store the catalog (EULAs are also downloaded and stored; however, these
    are quite small text files).
    The software update point is simply a thin layer of management on top of the WSUS instance thus yes, it must be installed on the same system as the WSUS instance.
    Also remember that once integrated, no management should be done in the WSUS console at all because as managed, WSUS simply downloads and provides access to the update catalog and no the updates. The updates are deployed using ConfigMgr itself.

  • Critical Error in Software Update Point

    SCCM 2012 Software Update Point is showing error as per picture below.
    How can I fix this error?

    Hi,
    I would start by looking in the log files, Wsyncmgr.log, WsusCtrl.log and WCM.log file for any errors. information about all log files are found here:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh427342.aspx#BKMK_SUPLog
    That should give you an error message and more details on the error, post them here and we can assist you, but  alittle bit more information would be useful.

  • SCCM 2012: configure software update point

    Hi,
    I installed WSUS, installed the software update point on Windows 2012 (for SCCM 2012) with following commands:
    Install-WindowsFeature -Name UpdateServices -IncludeManagementTools
    cd 'C:\Program Files\Update Services\Tools\'
    .\wsusutil.exe postinstall CONTENT_DIR=E:\WSUS
    Add-CMSoftwareUpdatePoint -SiteCode "PRD" -SiteSystemServerName "CM01.contoso.com" -ClientConnectionType Intranet -WsusiisPort 8530 -WsusiissslPort 8531
    Now I'm stuck. How do I configure the specific update (f.e. Windows 2012, forefront etc), download them to a certain folder?
    Please advise.
    J.

    It really isn't practical (or possible) to try to do an entire ConfigMgr implementation using PowerShell. I don't believe that you can choose your products using PoSH.
    You will find a full list of cmdlets here
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj821831(v=sc.20).aspx
    The following cmdlets are available to configure your software update infrastructure but I'm pretty sure none of them will help you with this.

  • Use SCCM as a standard WSUS server as well as a Software Update point?

    Is it possible to use SCCM as a standard WSUS server as well as a Software Update point? I have 2 scenarios:
    1) create software update packages and deploy them via software update groups in Configuration Manager
    2) configure a group policy to set internal WSUS server to the SCCM server with SUP role, and allow servers to pull updates 
    - Is this technically possible?
    - Do I need to pre-download the updates that i want delivered via method (2) above ? 
    I am running Systems Center Configuration Manager 2012 R2 with SUP installed. 

    100% agree with Jason. Sounds like a idea full of hassle and I'd imagine weirdness could creep in. I'd use ConfigMgr to patch the servers for the advanced reporting alone.

    This list comes from WSUS which in its default, newly installed state is out of date. The list is however updated every time that WSUS in synced and the catalog is updated in ConfigMgr. Thus, you simple need to initiate an update catalog sync from within
    the ConfigMgr console by going to the Software Updates -> All Software Updates node and choosing Synchronize Software Updates from the ribbon bar or right-click context menu.
