80248009 WU_E_DS_MISSINGREF
The data store is missing required information or has a reference to
missing license terms, file, localized property or linked row.
This can happen with EULAs, files, and/or localized properties
referenced by an update.
Suggest you try renaming the datastore and see if that resolves the issue.
NOTE: Renaming the datastore will erase the History shown on the update
sites.
