WSUS not showing cloned machines

In case your WSUS not showing cloned machines, please verify the SusClientId & SusClientIdValidation keys in the cloned servers. Most probably, all the servers will be having the same key, so that only one server will be successful in establishing the connectivity towards your WSUS server. In that case, please execute the below script as a bat file in your cloned servers from an elevated command prompt.

REG Delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v SusClientId /f
REG Delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate /v SusClientIdValidation /f
REG Add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate /v WUServer /t REG_SZ /d
http://:8530 /F

REG Add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate /v WUStatusServer /t REG_SZ /d http:// /F
