New updates for Exchange Server 2013 and Exchange Server 2016 were released today. Click here to download directly:
CU13 for Exchange 2013 and CU2 for Exchange 2016 bring .NET 4.6.1 Support and fix a problem when migrating public folders, which leads to Data loss could lead.
The Exchange Team recommends installing the respective Exchange CU before installing .NET Framework 4.6.1. Furthermore, the following .NET updates are required after the upgrade:
- Windows Server 2008/2008R2: KB3146716
- Windows Server 2012: KB3146714
- Windows Server 2012R2: KB3146715
The CU 2 for Exchange 2016 also updates the Active Directory schema. The CU2 is now only available for download as an ISO file, but I find this much easier to handle than the old large .EXE file. However, the ISO file is also significantly larger at just under 6.5 GB:
Das Exchange 2013 CU13 steht weiterhin als EXE-Datei zur Verfügung und ist „nur“ knapp 1,7 GB groß. Beide CUs eignen sich für das Update sowie auch für eine Neuinstallation.
Although there were no such serious problems with the last CUs that updates had to be withdrawn, it is still advisable, as always, not to update too quickly and to test thoroughly.
