Our Wsus runs on server 2008 R2. We are running out of space on the drive. Can we use these instructions to move the WSUS content and DB:

Especially the SUSDB section (number 2 and 7)

as long as your database is not a full SQL install it should work. those instructions are for the free/basic database option

Hi,

There's one thing to note is that it is not recommended to move the content folder to a remote server. It may cause permission issues.

If you move the content folder to a remote server, please make sure that everyone has the read and write permission.

Best Regards.
