There is no error on the console. If we run the update manually is goes through without error, but if we leave it to run on schedule it locks the server up with the only recourse being to manually power cycle. As far as I can tell the updates are downloaded but its hanging up the server when it tries to process beyond that point.

is that LUALL.exe taking 100 % utilization?
Is it thelatest SEPM version?
Any other logs, like windows dump that can help to know why the resource locks down

SEPM Version & Logs
My guess would be that that is the issue, however we've not managed to get a useful memory.dmp from it. This is the latest SEPM.
The initial update for the
The initial update for the SEPM is huge.last time when I installed SEPM is was taking a long time to get the updates.I left the sever for one day as it is and the problem got solved.Later I found that it took 7-8 hours to get the initial update.So live the server as it is now and observer after one day..
Please don't forget to mark your thread solved with whatever answer helped you : ) Thanks & Regards Aravind
Not practical
This is a production server and not practical to "just leave it". It has after one of the hangs been in that state for over 5 hours. Manual live updates are fine so the system is up to date, its the automatic updates that hang the box.
