Hello Sam,
Thank you for posting here.
According to your description, I understand that you got error message when
you use Update Services MMC snap-in in Server Management console. If I have
misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Based on my research, this issue occurs when one or more of the following
conditions are true:
a. The Approve for Detection option is not enabled for the All Computers
group in WSUS 2.0.
b. The Approve for Installation option is enabled for the All Computers
group in WSUS 2.0.
c. The list of products to download updates for is not set to All Microsoft
products.
d. You set the Use Group Policy or registry settings on computers option in
the Computers Options page in WSUS 2.0.
e. The WSUS service has been stopped.
f. The update classifications section does not have the critical and
security updates and service packs option turned on.
g. The Approve for Detection classifications section does not have the
critical and security updates and service packs option turned on.
h. The Synchronize manually option is turned on.
Note: You can continue to manage updates by using the Windows Server Update
Services 2.0 Administrators console.
I suggest we try the following steps to see if we can resolve this issue:
To work around this issue, use one of the following methods:
Method 1:
Reverse any changes you made that may have caused Windows Small Business
Server 2003 Update Services to stop managing the updates for the network.
Method 2:
Rerun setup from the Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 CD #6. This is
the R2 Technologies CD.
For more detail info, please go through the following KB:
Software updates are not managed by Microsoft Windows Small Business Server
2003 Update Services

Hope these steps will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Best regards,

| All,
|
| I was working on freeing up some space on C: and ran the wsusutil.exe
| deleteunneededrevisions cmd to free up some space. It took forever to
run,
| but finished with no errors. However now when I go to manage WSUS using
the
| "Update Services MMC snap-in in Server management, I get the following
error;
|
|
| Windows Small Business Server (Windows SBS) Update Services is not
running
| because it automatically turns off if you customize Windows Server Update
| Services (WSUS). For a list of specific settings that cause Windows SBS
| Update Services to turn off, see the Microsoft Web site. Even if WSUS is
| managing updates for your network, the accuracy of the status in the
Windows
| SBS monitoring report or on the Update Services home page cannot be
| guaranteed. To use Windows SBS Update Services, reverse the changes that
you
| have made to WSUS or reinstall Windows SBS 2003 R2.
|
| I've followed the link and verified all the settings in WSUS, but so far
its
| done me no good. Is a reinstall needed? or has anyone else ran accross
this
| issue?
|
| SBS2003R2 Premium fully patched.
|
|
| Thanks,
| - Sam
|
| p.s. Wsus still works, just the snap-in is broken.
