10. The next page lets you choose your database options:
◆ If you are not installing WSUS on a Configuration Manager site, the default of Install Windows Internal Database On This Computer is probably your best option, because it installs Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Embedded Edition just for the purpose of managing WSUS. This will save you from having to purchase another full SQL Server license for WSUS and managing another instance of SQL as well.
◆ If you are installing WSUS on a Configuration Manager Central Administration Site or a primary site server and it has the resources to handle it, then we recommend going ahead and using the instance of the SQL Server that is already installed. (If it doesn’t have enough resources, you probably shouldn’t be installing WSUS on this server anyway.) Having two versions of SQL installed on the same server could cause problems in the long run, and they would be competing for the same resources.
Depending on what you choose, WSUS will either create the Windows Internal Database or test the connection to the existing SQL Server instance.
11. After that is done, click Next.
12. On the next page of the wizard, choose how to configure the WSUS website. Microsoft recommends that you choose to make a custom website if you are using WSUS as a software update point, even if the WSUS server is remote from the Configuration Manager site system. You should definitely use the custom site option if you are installing WSUS on a Configuration Manager site so that the install will not interfere with the other Configuration Manager components that use IIS. By default, the custom WSUS website uses HTTP port 8530 and HTTPS port 8531.
13. Click Next.
14. Review the settings, and click Next to install WSUS 3.0 SP2.
15. Click Finish and then Close after the installation.
16. The WSUS configuration wizard will start up after that, but you should close it, because Configuration Manager 2012 will take care of configuring all of the settings for WSUS.
