hi,

no errors can found form client diagnostics.

if cannot clients appear on computers page in wsus console, problem client self-update, mechanism wsus uses update sus client wsus client (automatic updates) software.

ms have template troubleshoot issue client computer not reporting in wsus, may refer troubleshoot issue.

  1. troubleshoot client computer connectivity
    1. open command prompt window.
    2. contact wsus server: pingwsusservername.
    3. contact wsus http server. open internet explorer , in address bar, type: http://wsusservername:portnumber wsusservername name of wsus server, , portnumber port has been configured (for example, 80 http, 443 ssl, , 8530 custom port).
    4. verify existence of self-update tree. in internet explorer address bar, type: http://wsusservername/selfupdate/wuident.cab
    5. if wsus server functioning properly, should see file download window asks whether open or save file. close window.
  2. troubleshoot automatic update client
    1. open command prompt window.
    2. type:
      reg query hklm\software\policies\microsoft\windows\windowsupdate.

hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\windows\windowsupdate wuserver    reg_sz  http://wsusservername wustatusserver      reg_sz  http://wsusservername hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\windows\windowsupdate\au 

you should see output similar following if automatic update functioning, client computer has not been configured updates wsus server:

hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\windows\windowsupdate hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\windows\windowsupdate\au 

if query returns error, "the system unable find specified registry key or value," automatic update has not been configured on computer.

if output step 2 contains values wuserver , wustatusserver, try contact wsus server listed in these values.

  1. open internet explorer , in address bar type http://wuserver
