Hello.

Is there anyway to run this against multiple WSUS servers from the one script?

I do love the possibility of automating this.
Although I have one problem. I get timeouts running the script. Is there a way to change the timeout value ?

Hi Bean,
The cleanup method dos not return anything when successful. So there’s not much to log.
Error handling is a field I’m not too familiar with. Try looking up some information about Powershell error handling on the web.

How can you add logging and allow results of the cleanup to output to a log file?

Kevin,

Either run the script directly on the WSUS Server or set the $UseSecureConnection to $True and $Portnumber to 443.

Craig,
Either run the script on the WSUS server or a server that has the WSUS Snapin installed.

Anil,

Make sure the assembly loads OK, by temporarily removing the [void] and watch for errors.
Also, make sure there are no characters missing or added due to copying the script from my site. Retype it if you need.
Hope that helps.
