we never had issues before, looking at the logs, I would say its with installing updates.
this is being repeated over and over and over again in smsts.log Waiting for job status notification ... InstallSWUpdate 23/05/2014 14:08:03 3620 (0x0E24) Update with CIID Site_F1E519DF-A4F0-4BD0-BA26-CDCC8B5CC8FF/SUM_729a0dcb-df9e-4d02-b603-ed1aee074428 failed with hr = 0x80070643 InstallSWUpdates 23/05/2014 14:08:16 3608 (0x0E18) Update with CIID Site_F1E519DF-A4F0-4BD0-BA26-CDCC8B5CC8FF/SUM_729a0dcb-df9e-4d02-b603-ed1aee074428 failed with hr = 0x80070643 InstallSWUpdates 23/05/2014 14:08:29 3608 (0x0E18) Update with CIID Site_F1E519DF-A4F0-4BD0-BA26-CDCC8B5CC8FF/SUM_729a0dcb-df9e-4d02-b603-ed1aee074428 failed with hr = 0x80070643 InstallSWUpdates 23/05/2014 14:08:38 3608 (0x0E18) Update with CIID Site_F1E519DF-A4F0-4BD0-BA26-CDCC8B5CC8FF/SUM_729a0dcb-df9e-4d02-b603-ed1aee074428 failed with hr = 0x80070643 InstallSWUpdates 23/05/2014 14:08:50 3608 (0x0E18) 729a0dcb-df9e-4d02-b603-ed1aee074428 is MS11-025 ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2538243) However its showing the below (MS11-085) WUAHandler shows the below over 1 hour ago, so is the above really the current update installing or is it MS11-085 Update (PendingReboot): Security Update for Windows 7 (KB2620704) (fe3053c7-cc35-4e94-b176-1e2a8e9c8c14, 101) WUAHandler 23/05/2014 13:03:41 3656 (0x0E48) Leaf: fc9817d9-1476-4d37-b281-d8cbccf06455, 101 Status: PendingReboot WUAHandler 23/05/2014 13:03:41 3656 (0x0E48) for Software updates 1 step we have on error resume next enabled, so when it eventually times out, guess around 8 hours based on prev tests, should be ok the only other option is to remove MS11-025 from deployment of the ref image and let normal patching catch it. Will test that week after next when Im back in the office.
