Function Invoke-WsusSpringClean { <# .SYNOPSIS Performs additional WSUS server clean-up beyond the capabilities of the built-in tools. .DESCRIPTION Adds the ability to decline numerous additional commonly unneeded updates as well as discover potentially incorrectly declined updates. .PARAMETER RunDefaultTasks Performs all clean-up tasks except for declining any unneeded updates as defined in the included update catalogue CSV file. You can disable one or more of the default clean-up tasks by setting the associated switch parameter to false (e.g. -CompressUpdates:$false). You can perform a clean-up of unneeded updates by specifying the DeclineCategoriesInclude or DeclineCategoriesExclude parameter with your chosen categories. Also note that this does not perform a server synchronisation before clean-up or find suspect declined updates. These tasks can be included via their respective parameters. .PARAMETER SynchroniseServer Perform a synchronisation against the upstream server before running cleanup. .PARAMETER FindSuspectDeclines Scan all declined updates for any that may have been inadvertently declined. The returned suspect updates are those which: - Are not superseded or expired - Are not cluster or farm updates (if set to decline) - Are not in the filtered list of updates to decline from the bundled catalogue .PARAMETER DeclineClusterUpdates Decline any updates which are exclusively for failover clustering installations. .PARAMETER DeclineFarmUpdates Decline any updates which are exclusively for farm deployment installations. .PARAMETER DeclinePrereleaseUpdates Decline any updates which are exclusively for pre-release products (e.g. betas). .PARAMETER DeclineSecurityOnlyUpdates Decline any Security Only updates. .PARAMETER DeclineArchitectures Array of update architectures to decline. Valid options are: x64, ia64, arm64 We don't support declining x86 updates as there's no mechanism to determine which updates are x86 specific versus multi-architecture. .PARAMETER DeclineCategoriesExclude Array of update categories in the bundled updates catalogue to not decline. .PARAMETER DeclineCategoriesInclude Array of update categories in the bundled updates catalogue to decline. .PARAMETER DeclineLanguagesExclude Array of update language codes to not decline. .PARAMETER DeclineLanguagesInclude Array of update language codes to decline. .PARAMETER CleanupObsoleteComputers Specifies that the cmdlet deletes obsolete computers from the database. .PARAMETER CleanupObsoleteUpdates Specifies that the cmdlet deletes obsolete updates from the database. .PARAMETER CleanupUnneededContentFiles Specifies that the cmdlet deletes unneeded update files. .PARAMETER CompressUpdates Specifies that the cmdlet deletes obsolete revisions to updates from the database. .PARAMETER DeclineExpiredUpdates Specifies that the cmdlet declines expired updates. .PARAMETER DeclineSupersededUpdates Specifies that the cmdlet declines superseded updates. .EXAMPLE PS C:\>$SuspectDeclines = Invoke-WsusSpringClean -RunDefaultTasks -FindSuspectDeclines Runs the default clean-up tasks & checks for declined updates that may not be intentional. .EXAMPLE PS C:\>Invoke-WsusSpringClean -DeclineCategoriesInclude @('Region - US', 'Superseded') Declines all unneeded updates in the "Region - US" & "Superseded" categories. .EXAMPLE PS C:\>Invoke-WsusSpringClean -DeclineLanguagesExclude @('en-AU') Declines all language specific updates excluding those for English (Australia). .EXAMPLE PS C:\>Invoke-WsusSpringClean -DeclineArchitectures @('arm64', 'ia64') Declines all architecture specific updates for ARM64 & IA64 (Itanium) systems. .NOTES The script intentionally avoids usage of most WSUS cmdlets provided by the UpdateServices module as many are extremely slow. This is particularly true of the Get-WsusUpdate cmdlet. The efficiency of the update declining logic could be substantially improved. That said, this script is not typically run frequently (~monthly), so this isn't a major priority. .LINK https://github.com/ralish/PSWsusSpringClean #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName='Default',SupportsShouldProcess)] Param( [Switch]$RunDefaultTasks, [Switch]$SynchroniseServer, [Switch]$FindSuspectDeclines, [Switch]$DeclineClusterUpdates, [Switch]$DeclineFarmUpdates, [Switch]$DeclinePrereleaseUpdates, [Switch]$DeclineSecurityOnlyUpdates, [String[]]$DeclineCategoriesExclude, [String[]]$DeclineCategoriesInclude, [ValidateScript({Test-WsusSpringCleanArchitectures -Architectures $_})] [String[]]$DeclineArchitectures, [ValidateScript({Test-WsusSpringCleanLanguageCodes -LanguageCodes $_})] [String[]]$DeclineLanguagesExclude, [ValidateScript({Test-WsusSpringCleanLanguageCodes -LanguageCodes $_})] [String[]]$DeclineLanguagesInclude, # Wrapping of Invoke-WsusServerCleanup [Switch]$CleanupObsoleteComputers, [Switch]$CleanupObsoleteUpdates, [Switch]$CleanupUnneededContentFiles, [Switch]$CompressUpdates, [Switch]$DeclineExpiredUpdates, [Switch]$DeclineSupersededUpdates ) # Ensure that any errors we receive are considered fatal $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop' if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineCategoriesExclude') -and $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineCategoriesInclude')) { throw 'Can only specify one of DeclineCategoriesExclude and DeclineCategoriesInclude.' } if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineLanguagesExclude') -and $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineLanguagesInclude')) { throw 'Can only specify one of DeclineLanguagesExclude and DeclineLanguagesInclude.' } if (!$script:WscMetadata) { Import-WsusSpringCleanMetadata } if ($RunDefaultTasks) { $DefaultTasks = @( 'DeclineClusterUpdates', 'DeclineFarmUpdates', 'DeclinePrereleaseUpdates', 'DeclineSecurityOnlyUpdates', 'CleanupObsoleteComputers', 'CleanupObsoleteUpdates', 'CleanupUnneededContentFiles', 'CompressUpdates', 'DeclineExpiredUpdates', 'DeclineSupersededUpdates' ) foreach ($Task in $DefaultTasks) { if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey($Task)) { Set-Variable -Name $Task -Value (Get-Variable -Name $Task).Value -WhatIf:$false } else { Set-Variable -Name $Task -Value $true -WhatIf:$false } } } # Regular expressions for declining certain types of updates $script:RegExClusterUpdates = ' Failover Clustering ' $script:RegExFarmUpdates = ' Farm[- ]' $script:RegExPrereleaseUpdates = ' (Beta|Preview|RC1|Release Candidate) ' $script:RegExSecurityOnlyUpdates = ' Security Only (Quality )?Update ' # Determine which categories of updates to decline (if any) if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineCategoriesExclude') -or $PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineCategoriesInclude')) { Import-WsusSpringCleanCatalogue $CatalogueCategories = $script:WscCatalogue.Category | Sort-Object | Get-Unique if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineCategoriesExclude')) { $DeclineCategories = $CatalogueCategories | Where-Object { $_ -notin $DeclineCategoriesExclude } } else { $DeclineCategories = $CatalogueCategories | Where-Object { $_ -in $DeclineCategoriesInclude } } } # Fetch the metadata for any architectures we're going to decline if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineArchitectures')) { $DeclineArchitecturesMetadata = @() foreach ($Architecture in $DeclineArchitectures) { $DeclineArchitecturesMetadata += $script:WscMetadata.SelectSingleNode('//Architectures/Architecture[@name="{0}"]' -f $Architecture) } } # Fetch the metadata for any languages we're going to decline if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineLanguagesExclude')) { $DeclineLanguagesMetadata = $script:WscMetadata.Languages.Language | Where-Object { $_.code -notin $DeclineLanguagesExclude } } elseif ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('DeclineLanguagesInclude')) { $DeclineLanguagesMetadata = $script:WscMetadata.Languages.Language | Where-Object { $_.code -in $DeclineLanguagesInclude } } if ($SynchroniseServer) { Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "`r`nStarting WSUS server synchronisation ..."
