How to install multiple Windows updates in windows server 2008 r2 sp1

Hello Team,

We have about 20 Windows server 2008 r2 sp1 server. It was new setup in windows deploying in the premises....They can't able to give internet to download all approx 64 patches on each server. Hence planned to install manually...is there a way to install multiple Windows updates in windows server 2008 r2 sp1....

Hope qchain doesn't supported in windows server 2008 r2 and we also don't ve any wsus or sccm server...IT IS A NEW ENVIROMENT..:(..

Please suggest best to go ahead on windows update for these 20 windows server 2008 r2 sp1 servers

Hi,

I suggest to install WSUS on one server and let other servers get update from this server

this may help you

You can use WSUS and SCCM for update management.

For more on WSUS and SCCM queries, post here.

Hi, if you do not choose WSUS, you can use manual/standalone methods (but it's a lot more work for you).
An example is here (mentioned is older Windows OS but the same principles apply):

Agree with Don.

You can create a batch file which can install multiple patches for you.

Copy all desired standalone patches in a folder and create patch.bat inside that folder itself (see the sample below)

You can even use programs like Winzip or Winrar to create a self extracting patch bundle (which includes patches and patch.bat) and copy that on individual server and execute the self extracting archive.

Here is a sample batch file...

@echo off
setlocal

echo *** Windows 2008 R2 64 bit Patch Bundle Installation ***

If YOu will use Santosh bat script, my suggestion is that use LSRunAs tool for running as administrator

You don't need qchain.
qchain hasn't been needed since early Server2003

Bit late for a reply but for the sake of future searchers take a look at WSUS Offline Updater (from c't-magazine)
