I have used both UpdateExpert and WSUS3.0 and for me, I have seen the same issue. Again...it happens to about 1-3 servers out of about 50. The next time this happens I will take the effort to dig deeper into finding a root cause or at least have some form of data for MS to look into.

Hi Susan, I didn't mean to imply that this was just with the last set of patches. I think your note says that you have been seeing this for a while. We have too. One of the guys in my group uses Update Expert to patch and he sees it more often than I do. Of course, he patches a lot more servers than I do. Another part of the group uses WSUS and they have not mentioned any issues; but then again, they don't TS into computers much. And yes, I will bring it up with my TAM (again?). I think I had mentioned it to him previously but never started anything formal on it.

Can you PLEASE call into Microsoft PSS or your tam or pam or whatever and report this? Along with anyone else seeing this issue? I know that calling into PSS can be a pain, but please report this issue. We are seeing this more and more and I need to have bodies called in. We seriously need to get to the bottom of this because in the SBS space we do a lot of remote management and if the RDP dies we have to fall back to ILOs and this isn't acceptable in my book for patching to do this. Do you rely on WSUS?
