Introduction

Keeping your systems, client and server, up to date with patches and updates is an important task undertaken by Windows administrators. Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) is a feature of Windows Server 2019 that enables you to manage the download and distribution of updates to your organization's computers.

In addition to updating Windows itself, WSUS also enables you to manage patches and updates for a wide variety of Microsoft software products. Thus, an update you download from Microsoft and distribute via WSUS may apply to Windows itself as well as Office and a huge range of other Microsoft software products.

In this chapter, you see how to install and configure both WSUS server and WSUS client computers. The recipes examine the management, approval, and installation of updates, and how you can report on the status of update installation.
