Fresh install of Windows Server 2012 R2 but cannot add roles or update server

Hello all,

I've just installed Windows Server 2012 R2 on a server and have updated it.

I am having two problems.

1. When I start the server and log in as the Local Administrator account it opens up Server Manager and it comes up with an error on the flag at the top saying the Automatic refresh failed.

It also has a red flag on Manageability, when I click in it, it gives me this message: Online - Cannot get role and feature data.

When I go to add a role it gives me a message saying The request to list features available on the specified server failed. The operation cannot be completed, because the server that you specified requires a restart.

2. I cannot update Windows and always fails.

I have looked through a lot of forums and have also tried the methods here:

and here:

I don't understand what is wrong with this server, it's a fresh install and is causing this problem.

Can somebody please help me with this problem.

Thanks,

Aminul
