Exchange 2010 SP3 Rollup 2 & SP2 RU7 (updated)


Exchange 2010 LogoNote 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.

Today the Exchange Team released Rollup 2 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 3 (KB2866475). This update raises Exchange 2010 version number to 14.3.158.1.

Here’s a list of fixes contained in this Rollup:

    • 2837926 Error message when you try to activate a passive copy of an Exchange Server 2010 SP3 database: “File check failed”

Notes:

  • As of Service Pack 2 Rollup 4, its no longer required to disable/re-enable ForeFront Protection for Exchange using the fscutility to be able to install the Rollup properly. However, if you want to remain in control, you can disable ForeFront before installing the Rollup using fscutility /disable and re-enable it afterwards using fscutility /enable;
  • 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.
