Is this only for upgrades or can happen also for monthly security patches?
I have this error too

I have this problem too and with your great article, I could solve this problem.
Thank you very much for this :).
I have only one problem. Normally, in the WsusContent folder, only the metadata of the updates is saved when using SCCM. But since I activated the Automatic Approvment in WSUS, the size of WsusContent folder is increasing continuosly, because I activated also for montly updates, because I also had the problems with them.

Or do I have to increase the WsusContent folder and save all updates two times (SCCMContentLib and WsusContent folder) ?
