  • 1.  Trying to designate a new server as a GUP, but it is a VMWare server

    Is this an issue? When I designated it to be a GUP, it seemed to be ok in the console, but when I looked at the properties, it reads "false" for "Group Update Provider" Do I need to do anything else? Restart services, is it ok to have a VM server serve as a GUP>?

    Check the System log on the GUP, should show an entry like "Start serving as group update provider"

    Perhaps it just hasn't registered in the SEPM yet. Go to the GUP and force it check in

    I just needed to be a little more patient, it works!!! I restared the services for good measure.

    Yep usually how it goes...the reflection in the SEPM is not quite real-time.
