WSUS hinders OS upgradation from win 2008 R2 Sp1 to Win 2012 STD

Hi Experts,
i have a server with WSUS role on win 2008 R2 Sp. While upgrating its OS to Win 2012 STD, it undergoes in complatibity check and displays to uninstall WSUS before proceding. Is it necesaaring to remove the role and continue the installation
? Is there any other way to over come this problem , other that removing the role and re-assigning after OS upgradation ?

Hi,
As far as I know, Windows Server Update Services 3.0 SP2 cannot be installed on Windows 2012, so I suggest you uninstall it, and then migrate WSUS to V6, please also go through the below threads for more helpful information:

  • I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?

    If you migrated all the info from time machine to your new MBP. The TM will usually ask to connect to the old backups.. sorry I am not sure is this what you want to do.. Personally I think you start a fresh backup.
    BTW Time Capsule does not do anything.. it is a dumb hard disk in a box.. it is TM that does everything.
    Look at B5 and B6 here about connecting to your backup.

  • Hyper-V host server upgrade from Server 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1 to Server 2012 R2 Datacentre

    We are about to upgrade our Hyper-V host servers from Server 2008R2 Enterprise SP1 to Server 2012 R2 Datacentre to take advantage of the latest Hyper-V features.
    This only concerns the host servers and not the guest VMs running on the hosts (they will be upgraded next year).
    This is what is running on our host servers:
    Host 1
    File,print & issuing CA server
    Exchange 2010
    SharePoint 2010
    Quickbooks server
    Domain controller 1
    Offline CRL CA
    Host 2
    SQL 2008
    Forefront TMG 2010
    Domain Controller 2
    Windows 7 client
    With this is mind, I have drafted a rough action plan as follows:
    Create a list of all file locations for VM memory, snapshots, virtual memory and Hyper-V config files
    Document all existing system settings
    Gather server information, download drivers, RAID controller and other boot drivers & firmware updates (in case the in-place upgrade fails)
    Test all software media
    Copy all VMs onto external data storage (NAS drive)
    As part of the upgrade process we will redistribute some hard drive space i.e.
    expand them to their new sizes and verify the data integrity of copied VMs by powering up each VM in a test environment
    Wipe and adjust the sizes of the host partitions to accommodate the expanded VMs
    Perform an in-place upgrade to Server 2012 R2 Datacenter
    Check EV, services etc
    Change the default locations for VM memory, snapshots, virtual memory and Hyper-V config files
    Upgrade Anti-virus and other system software
    Test the system
    Are there any glaring omissions? Does anyone have any tips they can give me?

    Hi Marco,
    always do a fresh Installation of your hyper-V Hosts, you could end up doing a lot of Troubleshooting with Drivers,Addons etc.. new Installation ist way faster.
    Depending if you have a Cluster or Standalone Servers there are different ways to do it.
    When you have installed your 2012 R2 Hyper-V Server you just can Import the VMs from the new Location.
    As far as i know VMs with snapshots are not supported, so you have to remove them before doing that move and commit the changes to the vhd files, the VM need to be offline on 2008R2 to do that.
    You do not Need to Export the VMs on 2008R2, just copy it, normaly you should have all Files of a VM in one Folder.
    A working Backup is always your friend on such Tasks.
    When the VMs are running on Hyper-V 2012R2 do not forget to Update the Integration Services.
    Make Sure your Servers Hardware are still supported with 2012R2, see Server Catalog and Support Matrix of the Vendor.
    And last one, where possible and supported convert the VHDs to VHDx Disks, after testing the first boot of the VM.

    I compared the registry with a working system but the Counters - and all other keys - looked fine.
    At the same time as upgrading a DC a colleague was updating an unrelated server, and he started to see similar events in the event log (but for the Dell OpenManage Essentials service, not ADWS). The error was complaining about KERNELBASE.dll which set my
    spider sense tingling. We knew that this server had Windows Updates pending. Fully updating it solved the problem on that server.
    I solved the ADWS problem in the end by fully Windows Updating the DC. In particular, the ADWS Service started successfully after installing KB2919355 and rebooting. That also
    'unlocked' a further 59 updates pending. 
    After the in-place upgrade I always fully Windows Update but I'm 99% certain that KB2919355 did NOT show up when I did a Check for Updates straight after a reboot so I thought the DC was up-to-date. I then spent hours investigating the ADWS problem and rebooted
    as part of the diagnostics. It was then that I noticed on the logon screen that there were updates pending...
    Moral of the story? Windows Update, then Update again, and again, and again. The length of time it takes to Windows Update after an upgrade from 2008R2 to 2012R2 is painful though.

  • Upgrade from windows 2008 R2 to windows 2012

    Hi all.
    I have 4 node hyper-v cluster servers win 2008 R2 data center connected to iSCSI storage . I went to upgrade it to win 2012 data center can i work on this scenario:
    1- evict one node from the fail-over cluster.
    2- install clean win 2012 data center.
    3- add it to the cluster a gain.
    4- move VMs to new win 2012 server.
    5- evict another node and so on.
    Is there any thing wrong in this scenario ? 

    Hi,
    No, you can't have nodes with a different OS in the cluster.
    1- evict one node from the fail-over cluster.
    2- install clean win 2012 data center.
    3- form a new cluster, test it.
    4- move some VMs to new win 2012 cluster
    5- evict another node and so on.
    You'll need to evaluate your resources (ability to give a storage to the new cluster).

  • SharePoint 2013 Server OS upgrade from Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 R2

    Is it possible to have SharePoint 2013 farm to have mixed version of OS (Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 2012 R2). 
    We have a request to upgrade our farm servers from WIN 2008 R2 to Win 2012 R2. We have 5 servers in farm - 
    2 App servers - running with Central Admin, Service Applications, User Profile
    3 Web Front End Servers- running web application, search and workflow manager
    the database layer is separate on sql 2012 R2
    We want to upgrade OS from windows 2008 R2 to windows 2012 R2 and SQL to SQL 2014. 
    What will be right approach to do OS upgrade in above scenario to minimize the impact of downtime.
    May be add windows 2012 based servers in farm one by one and replace the windows 2008 R2 based servers from server.
    Regards,
    Kunal Abrol

    Its possible, but I wouldn't recommend it.  The problem is that you can only install SharePoint 20103 on Windows Server 2012 r2 using the slipstreamed SP1 version.  I assume that you used the regular version to install on you Server 2008 r2 versions.
     Even if you upgrade those servers to SP1 there are some minor differences in the builds between slipstreamed SP1 and upgraded SP1.  So although it will work it isn't recommended.
    Also, you should be aware the upgrade of inplace SharePoint servers running Windows 2008 r2 to Windows 2012 r2 is not supported.  
    To upgrade to server 2012 you'll need to add 2012 servers to your environment using the slipstreamed version os SharePoint and then remove the old server 2008 r2 servers as soon as possible.  For the period of the upgrade you should be able to get away
    with running the farm in a mixed state.

  • Upgrade from sqlserver 2008 to sqlserver 2014, can I put software into different drive other than C: ?

    Originally my sqlserver 2008 software was installed into E:, but I didn't see any drive selection options available during the upgrade steps, so now my sqlserver 2014 is installed into default C: drive.
    If there are any ways to specify different drive ?
    Thanks
    Sophia Su

    “Upon doing the initial upgrade, can I designate the target drive/letter”? 
    I didn’t see  a place to change it in the upgrade process.
    I don't want to uninstall sqlserver 2008, I just want to upgrade from 2008 to 2014 and be able to put the sqlserver 2014 software into the same drive (not C:) as my sqlserver 2008 is.
    If previous version was on E drive upgraded version should remain on E drive as well. AFAIK there does not comes an option to specify different drive letter when doing in place upgrade how ever if you do side by side upgrade you can install new instance
    of 2014 on what ever drive you like
    In side by side upgrade you have to first install SQL Server 2014 and then move databases using backup and restore then migrate logins and jobs using scripting method.
    After you are sure your upgrade process is complete you can uninstall 2008 instance.
    How do you check your SQL Server 2014 is installed on C drive. Please  note even if you install SQL server on some other drive(like D,E..) some binaries always go on C drive thet nature is by default , if you are looking at binaries then its wrong to
    deduce that your SQL Server is on C drive.
    Can you go to E drive can you see program files..Microsoft SQL Server ?

  • Steps to upgrade from sql 2008 r2 se (nonclustered) to sql 2012 se (clustered)

    hello,
    I am currently running a non clustered instance of a sqlserver 2008 R2 SE and need to upgrade to a clustered instance of SQLServer 2012 SE. The underlying OS is Windows 2008 R2 SE. I already bought the second server with the same os online but havent installed
    sql 2012 yet. 
    I am thinking of backing up my databases and script out all the logins and linked servers first.
    Then upgrade the SQLServer 2008 R2 SE to 2012 SE. But can I upgrade it to a clustered instance directly? If yes then I can definitely add the other server to the cluster while installing sql.
    Can someone point me to the right steps for this upgrade process
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Direct  upgrade to cluster is not possible without installing SQL server in cluster aware mode. I would recommend you need to uninstall SQL server 2008 R2 and then create windows cluster between two nodes and then install SQL server in cluster aware
    mode.
    You are right with taking up complete backup of all databases with logins and jobs.

  • Full-text search not available after upgrade from SQL 2008 R2 Std to SQL 2012 Std

    We upgraded our production SQL Server from 2008 R2 Std to 2012 Std last week, and the installation logs show everything was successful, but now we are unable to do any searches against our full-text indexes.  The resulting error is as follows:
    "Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded."
    When executing the query "SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('ISFULLTEXTINSTALLED')", the result is "0".  The "Full-Text Daemon Launcher service is also running.  When running installation again to add the feature, it shows
    "Full-Text and Semantic Extractions for Search" as being installed and unavailable for selection in the list of features to add.  As a side note, we did the same upgrade in our identical QA environment before production and everything was successful
    and full-text searches are working correctly.  We have run the "Repair" routine in the SQL Installation Center and it did not correct the problem.
    The full-text catalogs still appear when browsing through the GUI in SSMS or querying sys.fulltext_indexes and sys.fulltext_index_columns.  It is not possible to view the properties of the catalog in SSMS, though, as the GUI throws an error and an empty
    dialog box is shown.  Any other thoughts?
    Thanks,
    AJ

    I have no idea what is going, but assuming that it is a little pressing to get this fix, I think the best path in this case is to open a case with Microsoft.

  • In-place upgrade from windows 2008 R2 to windows 2012

    Hi all,
    we are currently running SAP ERP EHP7 (Netweaver 7.40 ) on Windows 2008 R2 server, MS SQL 2012 database.
    Is it possible to do in-place upgrade to Windows Server 2012?
    We want to do upgrade without buying new hardware  and perform system copy.
    Regards

    Hi,
    the only note where we discussed our findings about in-place upgrades of the Windows operating system is SAP Note 1494740.
    Even though the upgrade to Windows Server 2012 is not discussed explicitly, the note is also valid for Windows Server 2012.
    The only thing you have to take care is: upgrade your system components (database, other 3rd party software) to versions supported on Windows Server 2012 before you are performing the in-place upgrade.
    Regards

  • Unable to upgrade SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012 SP1

    I'm encountering error after error, after successfully installing the upgrade advisor (which took some doing) and running it with essentially no warnings/errors (the one warning was on the connection strings, as I recall -- and all of the warnings had a
    "fix after" status.
    First failure involved SSRS and the inability to create the "managed account". Backed out the upgrade using http://sqldbanotes.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-fix-failed-in-place.html
    Now the failure involves SSAS and unable to connect to analysis services with name MSSQLServerOLAPService.  That is the logical name for the service, although it shows up as just MSSQLServer when looking at it in the services list.  I tried
    setting the service account to a local account as  well as to Local System -- did not make a difference, the upgrade couldn't apparently find it regardless.
    Has anybody successfully done an in place upgrade from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012?

  • Unable to reinstall WSUS on air-gapped Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 server

    A co-worker installed WSUS on an air-gapped (not connected to the Internet) server running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, but he wasn't sure he'd configured everything properly, and asked me to uninstall and reinstall it.  The uninstallation went without

    Hi,
    0x8024402C WU_E_PT_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
    Winhttp SendRequest/ReceiveResponse failed with 0x2ee7 error. Either the proxy server or target server name cannot be resolved. Corresponding to ERROR_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED.
    Stop/Restart service or reboot the machine if you see this error frequently.
    Since the server is not connect to the internet, at least it should have an available upstream server. Did you configure it correctly? The error message indicate that the
    name could not resolved, make sure you can resolve the name of the upstream server. Run nslookup check the result.
    If it is the only WSUS, then give it internet connection and test.
    Hope this helps.

  • In-Place upgrade of 2008 R2 SP1 server to 2012 - 0x80070490

    I'm trying to upgrade one of our fileservers to 2012 from 2008 R2 SP1. It already failed once and I was
    forced to rollback to the previous version of Windows. Now, when I try I am continually getting the "Windows Setup cannot find a location to store temporary installation files. To install Windows, make sure that a partition on your boot disk has at least
    1198 megabytes of free space".
    The C drive has 55GB free, D drive 78GB free and E drive 255GB free.
    I've tried running the setup from the command line and using the /tempdrive:<drive> switch to specify
    the location the setup should place the temporary installation files but, no matter which drive I choose, I get the same error.
    The only other partition is the System Reserved partition which has less than the required space.  I
    had a look inside this partition (by adding a drive letter to it on a temporary basis) and there is a $WINDOWS.~BT folder which contains the temporary installation files.
    Is it safe to run a disk cleanup on the system reserved partition as I suspect that might allow the setup to run?

    Hi,
    You can perform a disk cleanup check first to see if any temp file will be listed. By default it will only list Recycle Bin in Disk Cleanup result.
