Notes:

• If you want to speed up the update process for systems without internet access, you can follow the procedure described here to disable publisher’s certificate revocation checking.
• If you got a DAG and want to properly update the DAG members, check the instructions here.
• Rollups are cumulative, i.e. they contain fixes released in earlier update Rollups for the same product level (RTM, SP). This means you don’t need to install previous Rollups during a fresh installation but can start with the latest Rollup package.

As with any Hotfix, Rollup or Service Pack, I’d recommend to thoroughly test this rollup in a test and acceptance environment first, prior to implementing it in production.

Note that the installation of Exchange 2010 SP3 RU2 might prompt for the Service Pack files. Yes, you read that right. Exchange fellow Steve Goodman posted a blog on this issue here.
