randle Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Is anyone else here using WSUS 3.0? If so do you know how to tell it to re-apply failed installs? Also i'm getting confused with this. The console has a stat for updates "Computers installed/Not applicable" How is this helpful!! It's either installed or not applicable. How is grouping these Two together going to help you know what the actual status is!! I know you can go further in to check the status but with the old version you could see straight away whether an update was needed or not.

Chris_Jones Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 The procedure outlined here http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/windowsupdate/Mar2006/post26573777.asp (Scroll down to the replies) seems to work, bit long winded though.
randle Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 Only a couple of updates have failed. Renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder on the station in hand would try to download/install everything again!!? There must be a way from the console that an update can be reapplied!!?
randle Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 Shame. I thought this would have been a handy built-in feature
