Starting the Synchronization Process
Applies To: Windows Server Update Services
The WSUS server does not synchronize with Microsoft Update until you start the synchronization process. To start the synchronization process manually, call ISubscription.StartSynchronization.
To synchronize with Microsoft Update at a specific time every day:
Set ISubscription.SynchronizeAutomatically to true
Set ISubscription.SynchronizeAutomaticallyTimeOfDay to the time of day when you want WSUS to synchronize
For an example, see Specifying Updates to Synchronize.
To determine the progress of the synchronization process, see Determining the Progress or Status of the Synchronization Process.
WSUS synchronizes all updates that were published since the last time you synchronized updates.
