If you need to change the recycle settings on a WSUS server running server core, it can be done via Powershell :
Import-Module WebAdministration Set-ItemProperty -Path IIS:\AppPools\WsusPool -Name recycling.periodicrestart.privateMemory -Value 4194304 Set-ItemProperty -Path IIS:\AppPools\WsusPool -Name ProcessModel.shutdownTimeLimit -Value 00:05:00 Set-ItemProperty -Path IIS:\AppPools\WsusPool -Name ProcessModel.idleTimeout -Value 00:00:00
I’ve been running into several updates, especially the past year or so, which breaks Windows one way or another.
So I’ve decided to make a list of those, at least for myself, to keep track.
KB3063109 Updates HyperV Integration Services to 6.3.9600.18080, caused BSOD 0x0000007B (INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE) on multiple VMs running 2012R2
Server 2012 apparently defaults to install WSUS on port 8530. Change it either in IIS manager, or run the following in an elevated prompt :
“C:\Program Files\Update Services\Tools\WSUSutil usecustomwebsite false”
