Everyone knows that WSUS is space consuming, no matter how many updates you selected, it will eventually take up some space 🙂
If you need to move the content folder to a new location, in ex. new drive, you can use the following build in utility, to move it:
1) Locate the Update Services folder, it’s normally located in C:\Program Files\Update Services
2) Open a command prompt with admin access to that folder:
3) Change directory to C:\Program Files\Update Services\Tools
4) In this folder we will find a utility called “wsusutil.exe”, with this, we can move the Content of the WSUS updates to a new location with the “movecontent” option:
5) Now move the content with this example: “WsusUtil.exe movecontent d:\!WSUS-DATA\WsusContent d:\!WSUS-DATA\LOG.txt”
6) Now sit back and wait for it to complete and look in the LOG.TXT file for any error/warnings 🙂
And suddenly: 🙂
