Update Rollup 2 for System Center 2012 SP1

  • Article

imageThis blog focuses on VMM and Orchestrator, and for VMM alone there are 20 fixes in this update. Many of these corrections relate to networking. This update has helped a number of customers I have worked with resolve their issues entirely. Even in a controlled classroom environment (I’m out delivering training this week. Go OKC!) the update has made a strong positive impact. As for Orchestrator, there are a few fixes as well, both of which stemmed from customer cases I worked involving Oracle results and SNMP Traps.

 

This is one update that should be installed immediately, or as soon as your outage window allows. There is one caveat: ‘In order to install Update Rollup 2 package for System Center 2012 SP1- Virtual Machine Manager, you will need to uninstall Update Rollup 1 for System Center SP1 - Virtual Machine Manager package from your system. ’ See this blog post for a great deal of information on the subject. Also, if you need to uninstall SC VMM for some unrelated reason, you will need to remove this update first to do so.
