Setup Failed "Authorization Manager Check failed in preparing Files"

We have found a consistent issue with upgrading from CU2 to CU3, so thought I would share.

Setup is failing on our Mailbox Servers (WS2012 with E2013 CU2 installed)

Setup will start and fail:

[ERROR] The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); <o:p></o:p>

                    & $RoleBinPath\ServiceControl.ps1 EnableServices Critical<o:p></o:p>

                " was run: "AuthorizationManager check failed.".<o:p></o:p>

[02/15/2014 14:26:03.0805] [1] [ERROR] AuthorizationManager check failed.<o:p></o:p>

[02/15/2014 14:26:03.0805] [1] [ERROR] The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

To Resolve this issue

manually enable Windows Services (they will all now be disabled)

Get-Service -Name WinMgmt, remoteregistry, W3svc, iisadmin | set-service -startuptype Automatic -whatif

What if: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "IIS Admin Service (iisadmin)".
What if: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Remote Registry (remoteregistry)".
What if: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "World Wide Web Publishing Service (W3svc)".
What if: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Windows Management Instrumentation (WinMgmt)".

Get-Service -Name WinMgmt, remoteregistry, W3svc, iisadmin | set-service -startuptype Automatic

Get-Service -Name WinMgmt, remoteregistry, W3svc, iisadmin | start-service

Get-Service -Name WinMgmt, remoteregistry, W3svc, iisadmin

Status   Name               DisplayName
------   ----               -----------
Running  iisadmin           IIS Admin Service
Running  remoteregistry     Remote Registry
Running  W3svc              World Wide Web Publishing Service
Running  WinMgmt            Windows Management Instrumentation

Now all 4 Services are running 

Before attempting to re-run  - Check the registry for Watermarks keys under

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\MidFileCopy.

Delete the two keys you find here.

THen - open Windows Powershell and run

for($i=1;$i-gt0;$i++) { Set-Service -Name WinMgmt -StartupType Automatic }

This keeps the relevant services running during setup.

Now - re run your Setup /M:Upgrade /iacceptexchangeserverlicenseterms

Hope this helps!
