There is a problem with WSUS wich i think i know the reason of.

When you run updates with automatic reboots and rerun of wsus. If the update is in the WSUSUpdateuser and the computer goes into Standby. and the "show user login after standby" is enabled. then you cant log back into the WSUSUpdateuser. and if you log into the normal one then the wsus user must be deleted manually to continue.

Hope you understand what i mean


And there is another thing. VERY often the updates hang on "Saving registry Hive". i dont know why, but it happens on quite few computers, specially in vista.

Hi!

Yes.
To avoid standby, please modify the power saving rules. I dislike to manipulate these settings programmatically (e.g. using powercfg.exe), because they seem to be system and not user specific.

I agree. I've run into this problem a few times on laptops. The one I'm working on now is a Toshiba with default sleep time of 15 mins. I hope this is something that can be integrated some day.
Thank you for a great software!

Hi!

I just added this feature to http://trac.wsusoffline.net/browser/trunk (r314).
Could you please post the output of "powercfg -l" from an English (non-German) Vista/7/Server 2008(R2) system?

Thanks & regards
Torsten Wittrock

English Windows 7 Pro x86-64:

Code: Select all

C:\>"powercfg" -l

die Zeichen ':' und '(' als "delimiter" verwendet, und nach Deiner englischen Befehlsausgabe passt's dann dort auch.
