I have a Win2012 R2 client that gets it's updates from my WSUS 3.2 server. We ran updates this past weekend (not me, it was not my shift). Apparently this one server shows no updates needed. Now, every other Win2012 R2 server we have needed at least a few updates ...
WSUS shows that the client is checking in. I ran a script to reset autorization and re-detect: ---------------------- NET STOP WUAUSERV REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate" /v PingID /f REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate" /v AccountDomainSid /f REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate" /v SusClientId /f REG DELETE "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate" /v SusClientIdValidation /f NET STOP BITS NET START BITS NET START WUAUSERV WUAUCLT /resetauthorization /detectnow ---------------------- Still no updates found.

Not finding anything that seems relevant in my searches. Last month's updates (i.e., Sept 2016_ installed fine, and show as last updated date). And it seems to be talking to WSUS. I see no errors in the log snippet that show me anything wrong.
