Automate the update of Windows Server R2 2012
Hi all
I am currently looking for a method to update automatically to our servers. Rather than use Windows update to install and reboot servers, I want to be able to automate the download and install the updates, but to impose when the server reboots automatically. I know that WSUS automatically installs updates but I don't think there is a way to control when the server should restart. Also apart from that, I know that servers come online without having to login to them manually. I think that the only way to go about this is with a script.
Any help or insight is most appreciated. Thank you.

Stucks update Windows Server R2 2012 after reboot to 9%
Hello
I installed windows server 2012 R2 on IIS, SQL Server, TFS and some other products from Microsoft. After finished installing, I ran the update of windows asking to restart the installation.
After restart, update continues up to 9%, then it stops forever!
I didn't start with the safe mode or last good known configuration mode!
I don't have an image restore CD for my installation.
What should I do? How can I solve the problem or cancel the installation?
Thanks for help.

Service Update Manager 5.5 crashing on Windows Server R2 2012
Hello
I try to get VUM 5.5 1 c working on a Windows Server R2 2012, but without a bit of luck.
Everything installs correctly, Setup detects 32-bit DSN pointing to our SQL 2008 R2 server and database connectivity works. However, as soon as I am scanning an ESXi host available updates the vSphere VMware Update Manager service fails and a dmp file is created under C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware update Manager\Logs.
Just to be sure I installed Crossover on another server in W2K12R2 own, but the end upwards with exactly the same problem. When I install the product on a Windows Server 2008 R2, it works very well.
According to the VMware 5.5 VUM compatibility matrix works with W2K12R2, but this isn't for me.
I enclose the vum-vmware-server log file that contains information about the accident of service.
Best regards

C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware update Manager\Data\host_upgrade_packages\esxi-up to date - bbylallekd
him (there were new files with the date 09/09/2014)

I want to use Windows Server 2012 R2 on a virtual machine. When I start the machine virtual first time, Manager of cloud instance that is installed on the operating system intercepts not created by Cloudstack password. When I reset the password, and then he grabs this new password and I can access VM.
That's the problem with compatibility with WIndows Server R2 2012 nursery cloud instance? Because the same version of it works well with WIndows Server 2008 R2 VM.

Hello team HP,
We used the driver 32 bit printer "HP Color LaserJet 4600 PS" to write the PDF file using Acrobat Distiller in Windows server 2003 operating system.
But now, we have migrated our production environment for Windows Server 2012 R2 64-bit operating system and using the 32-bit printer "HP Color LaserJet 4600 PS" driver in the operating system Windows Server 2012.
Is the driver support 32 bit printer "HP Color LaserJet 4600 PS" Windows Server 2012 R2 64-bit operating system?
If it is not supported then what printer driver will support the Windows Server 2012 R2 64-bit operating system?
Help us to this problem as soon as POSSIBLE and its very high priority for us.
Kind regards

Windows Server Std 2012 R2 domain controller
Hello world. We have problems in the domain controller with Windows Server R2 2012 in the VM that it helps domain users to connect to the DC remotely with admin rights. We have already allowed group policy by default on the management of the user rights that allow remote only for domain administrators. We did not refuse access, because the new user must be added to each new user creation. We do not want to use distribution of the Group deny. is it possible to access remotely to DC?
Thanks in advance.
