See best practice references here and here. This has been for various reasons, but performance has been one of the main reasons it has been updated. If you are in an environment where they only patch Critical and Security, you probably have not been updating WUA through your normal patching process.
If they are not up to date, put together a process to update them prior to implementing this change in production.
The 50,foot view At a high level, a minimum configuration requires 2 WSUS servers, 1 database server and some sort of load balancing method. Identify where the database is going to be installed. Your account should have sysadmin rights over that instance otherwise, the install will not work.
In my lab, I am using a multipurpose SQL server in my lab, which uses the default instance name. Identify where the content location for WSUS is going to be stored. I am not going to cover how to setup DFS, but if you need assistance in this, you can find an easy how to here.
In this example, my 2 frontend servers are the following CM12R2. Applications can be failed-over to ensure high availability in the event of planned downtime due to maintenance or unplanned downtime due to hardware, Operating System or application failures. Server clusters provide a highly available platform for applications such as SQL Servers. Server clusters are used for stateful applications that rely on some state context from one request to the next.
Server clusters provide high availability and disaster tolerance for mission-critical database management, file sharing, intranet data sharing, messaging, and general business applications. With Windows Server R2 with SP1, failover clustering allows flexibility for adding and removing hardware in a geographically dispersed cluster environment, as well as providing improved scaling options for applications.
Windows Server R2 also allows server clusters to be deployed in a variety of different configurations, in particular:. Since a large installation typically uses more than one Web server in a load-balanced configuration, setting up the local network infrastructure can be more complex than setting up a normal Web application system.
As a result, the network infrastructure must support the creation of multiple broadcast domains virtual local area network, or VLAN to segment incoming Web requests from the main production network. In normal Web server deployment scenarios, the incoming traffic typically consists of a small number of HTTP GET requests and this may not be an issue.
A cluster acts as a single logical server and provides centralized configuration and management for the servers in the cluster. Remote Access clusters provide high availability and load balancing of connections from DirectAccess clients to the internal network. Enable load balancing on EDGE1. EDGE1 was originally installed in single server mode. The new external DIP is The cluster VIPs are Add EDGE2 to the load balanced cluster.
After enabling load balancing, you can now add EDGE2 to the cluster to provide load balancing and high availability for DirectAccess client connections.
On the Settings dialog box, in the Hardware list, click the network adapter connected to the corpnet network, and then in the details pane, select the Enable spoofing of MAC addresses check box. In the Hardware list, click the network adapter connected to the Internet network, and then in the details pane, select the Enable spoofing of MAC addresses check box.
On the Installation progress dialog, verify that the installation was successful, and then click Close.
