Installing Windows Server Update Services
WSUS
is an installable feature within Windows Server 2022 that Windows setup does not install by default. To use Windows Update Services, you first install the WSUS
Windows feature and do basic configuration and setup. Once installed, you can use the Windows PowerShell cmdlets to deploy WSUS
in your environment.
In this recipe, you install WSUS
and review the results of that installation. In subsequent recipes, you manage and use the WSUS
service.
Note that this recipe uses remoting from SRV1
to WSUS1
. The steps demonstrate the complexity of installing WSUS
and configuring it for initial use in general and within PowerShell 7
.
