FAQ: WSUS and Unified Update Platform (UUP) on premises
Unified Update Platform (UUP) on-premises servicing is almost here! If you're a Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) user, we are sure you have some questions. We hope that you find this FAQ useful,...
"make sure WSUS is updated with KB5003217"
That is update for Server 2019. Does that mean that wsus on 2016 won't work?!
Hi @chavadar71 - KB5003217 is to enable Microsoft Connected Cache, which is supported on WSUS running on Windows Server 2019 and newer. Microsoft Connected Cache is unrelated to UUP update technology. UUP updates are supported with WSUS running on Windows Server 2012 and newer. In order to enable UUP updates to function properly you need to enable the MIME types referenced in the FAQ above. We do have a KB available for Windows Server 2016 and that KB is KB5022838. That will automatically add the MIME types to Windows Server 2016. For Windows Server 2012 you can manually add the MIME file types as documented https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-server-update-services/plan/plan-your-wsus-deployment#manually-add-the-required-mime-types-for-uup
