  The WSUS Product Team is proud to announce that WSUS 3.0 SP2 is now available! Get it today!

   

  We recommend installing SP2 on all existing and new installations of WSUS.

   

  WSUS 3.0 SP2 supports the latest operating systems including Windows Server® 2008 R2 and Windows 7 clients. WSUS 3.0 SP2 is more robust and features significant improvements in client performance, reliability, and increased server usability and reliability.

  Administrators will see improvements in several areas including:

  Reports

  ·       New Update and Computer Status reports provide the ability to report on only the updates you’ve approved for installation. You can run these reports from the WSUS console or use the API to incorporate this functionality into your own reports.

  Auto-Approval Rules

  ·       Auto-approval rules now include the ability to specify the installation deadline date and time for all computers or specific computer groups.

  Update Files and Languages

  ·       Improved handling of language selection for downstream servers includes a new warning dialog that appears when you decide to download updates only for specified languages.

  Easy Upgrade

  ·       WSUS 3.0 SP2 can be installed as an in-place upgrade from earlier versions of WSUS and will preserve all of your settings and approvals. The user interface is compatible between WSUS 3.0 SP1 and SP2 on the client and the server.

  Software Updates

  ·       Stability and reliability fixes for the WSUS server, such as support for IPV6 addresses.

  ·       The approval dialog now sorts computer groups alphabetically by group name.

  ·       Computer status report sorting icons are now functional in x64 environments.

  ·     A new release of Windows Update Agent is included with WSUS 3.0 SP2 that provides improvements in reliability and faster client scan times, the ability to perform ‘scoped’ scans, improved update organization, more clarity on update value and behavior, plus improved display of imaged machines.
