Installing Update Rollup 1 for Exchange 2010 on DAG Members

Update Rollup 1 (UR1) for Exchange Server 2010 is available for public download, and we recommend installing it on all of your Exchange 2010 servers. In a few days, we'll refresh our content on TechNet, and the refresh will include step-by-step instructions for installing UR1 on Mailbox servers that are members of a database availability group (DAG). In the meantime, I thought I would post the steps here so you don't have to wait for the content refresh. So, here they are:

Servers that are members of DAGs do not use Microsoft Update to install update rollups. Instead, update rollups must be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center and installed manually. When you install an update rollup on a server that is a member of a DAG, several services will be stopped during the installation, including all Exchange services, and the Windows Cluster service. The general process for installing update rollups on a DAG member is as follows:

  • Suspend activation for the databases on the server being updated.
  • Perform a server switchover so that all databases on the server are passive copies. There will be a brief interruption in service for the mailboxes hosted on the active databases during the switchover process.
  • Install the update rollup.
  • Resume activation for the databases on the updated server.
  • Perform database switchovers as needed.

You can download the latest update rollup for Exchange 2010 from the Microsoft Download Center.

To update all DAG members, perform the following procedures on each member of the DAG, one at a time. You need to be assigned permissions before you can perform this procedure. To see what permissions you need, see the "Database availability groups" entry in the High Availability Permissions topic.
