Are service packs cumulative?

Hi all
I was wondering whether weblogic service packs were cumulative in the
sense that do I have to install each service pack from sp 1 till sp 9 or
would sp 9 contain everything from the previous service packs.
Thanks in advance
Vijay

They are cumulative.

Hi
A Support Package contains a collection of error corrections. You can only import complete Support Packages and in a specified sequence. Each correction in a Support Package is documented in an SAP Note
SAP Notes give you instructions on how to remove known errors from SAP Systems. They include a description of the symptoms, the cause of the error, and the SAP Release and Support Package level in which the error occurs.
Depending on the type of error, an SAP Note may also include:
· Workarounds
· Descriptions of how to correct repository objects in the ABAP workbench, known as correction instructions
· Links to Support Packages that solve the problem
You can access SAP Notes both from the SAP Service Marketplace and SAPNet - R/3 Frontend

Are Crystal XI R2 Service Packs Cumulative?

I have installed Crystal XI R2 with SP2 using crxir2_sp2_full_build.zip.
Can I install SP5 directly or do I need to install SP3 first, then SP4 and then SP5?
Does SP5 contain everything in the previous service packs?

You can go directly to SP 5 from SP 2.

Performing Exchange Server patching & service pack for mailbox server without losing some data during the rollback ?

People,
I'd like to know how can I safely apply the Exchange Server service pack or cumulative update to the Mailbox Server role (no DAG) without losing some email during the downtime and rolling back the snapshot ?
Can I do the following:
1. Stop all of the Exchange Server services.
2. Disconnect the vNIC in Mailbox server
3. Take VM snapshot
4. Apply the Exchange Server service Pack / Cumulative Update or Windows Update
5. Reboot
6. Reconnect the vNIC, if the server back online again with no issue, commit / delete the snapshot, if not, then disconnect the vNIC followed by roll back.
would that be make sense or supported from both Vmware and Microsoft http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/exchange-2010-on-vmware-support-and-licensing-guide.pdf ?
If yu have any other suggestion, please let me know here.
Thanks in advance.

Hey AlbertWT,
I'll start off by saying that I wouldn't do it. Microsoft is explicit that snapshots are not supported with Exchange when virtualized. See below (from Exchange 2013 virtualization: Exchange 2013 Help):
Some hypervisors include features for taking snapshots of virtual machines. Virtual machine snapshots capture the state of a virtual machine while it's running. This feature enables you to take multiple snapshots of a virtual machine and then revert the virtual machine to any of the previous states by applying a snapshot to the virtual machine. However, virtual machine snapshots aren't application aware, and using them can have unintended and unexpected consequences for a server application that maintains state data, such as Exchange. As a result, making virtual machine snapshots of an Exchange guest virtual machine isn't supported.
Even if we ignore the support statement on snapshots this is still not a good idea. Here are some things to consider.
1) Cumulative updates for Exchange make changes to the Active Directory Schema. Rolling back the snapshot on the Mailbox server will not roll back the changes to AD, which could cause functional and supportability issues. See this link to give you an idea of how there are AD schema updates in every Exchange CU and service pack: Exchange 2013 Active Directory schema changes: Exchange 2013 Help
2) It is possible for email to come in during the time that you're testing the update, and if you need to roll back you would need a plan to get that email back. Third party services could work, or you could prevent email from coming into your environment completely during that time, but those are not ideal solutions.
A far better solution would be to create a lab environment that is isolated from production. You could either take clones of your Exchange and AD VMs and put them into a network fenced environment, or create a lab and import your AD structure so it matches production. I think this is a far better way to test than trying to rely on snapshots in production.
Hope that helps!

Is it possible to apply service packs to NW04s ABAP Sneak Preview?

Service Pack 7 to NW04s contains the DEMO_REGEX_TOY, which I'd like to install in my ABAP sneak preview system. I have some questions about that:
1. Is it possible to apply maintenance to the Sneak Preview?
2. What service packages need to be isntalled to upgrade the sneak preview rel/level from 7/5 to 7/7: 6 and then 7, or just 7? That is, are those service packs cumulative?
3. I am unable to download the service packs from https://service.sap.com using the download manager. I get an error in the trace output that says, "Unable to Find Certification Path." I have no idea what that means, or how to circumvent that problem. Is there an alternative way to get the Service Packs?
Thanks for any help/guidance you all can provide!

Thanks.
I did manage to download the packs. For others who may have similar difficulties, the solution to my download problem was to specify (in IE) http://service.sap.com as a trusted site. That allowed Download Manager to get the files.
I'll also add that I successfully applied packs 6 & 7, as well as SP 70020 (required to update SPAM before applying pack 7) and am now in business!
(Not sure I have the correct terminology for those - here's the file names I applied: KB70006.CAR, KB70007.CAR, KD70020.CAR)

Compatibility between Exchange 2007 service packs

Hi all, I have 5 servers Exchange:
- 3 Servers CAS and HUB
- 2 Servers Mailbox server in Microsoft Failover Cluster (MSCS)
Domain Controllers are all
Windows Server 2003 SP2
The versions of Exchange 2007 SP1 servers are all:
8.1 Build 240.6
I have thought about installing SP3 and RU13 in all 5 servers for Exchange, but I'm going to install SP3 and RU13 on 2 servers CAS / HUB and the following week at the other CAS / HUB server.
Finally, the following week in the two Mailbox Servers.
Is there any problem if I miss 2 servers CAS / HUB with SP3 RU13 and the other CAS / HUB in SP1, this will only be for a few days?
Is there any problem if I leave the servidors Mailbox Servers in SP1 while CAS / HUB are in SP3 RU13, this will only be for a few days?

Hi Yupikaiey.
Only thing you should be concerned is if you have CAS-CAS proxy or the Mailbox Cluster part.
Your current plan looks good. Just stay alert for any uncommon issues popping up, which would normally mean due to the difference.
If you upgrade your servers in this order, you may avoid potential service interruptions.
Details below:
Version Constrains are more of between roles of 2007-2010-2013 and not between same version SPs or RUs.
Exchange 2013 Server Role Architecture
The Past: Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010
Our goal was to make these server roles autonomous units. Unfortunately, that goal did not materialize in either Exchange 2007 or Exchange 2010. The server roles were tightly coupled along four key dimensions:
2.This also necessitated a tight versioning alignment – a down-level Hub Transport or Client Access shouldn’t communicate with a higher version Mailbox server; in some cases this was enforced (e.g., Exchange 2007 Hub Transport servers cannot deliver messages
to Exchange 2010 Mailbox servers), but in other cases they were not (e.g., an Exchange 2010 SP1 Client Access server can render data from an Exchange 2010 SP2 Mailbox server).
The versioning restriction also meant that you could not simply upgrade a single server role to take advantage of new functionality – you had to upgrade all of them.
The Present: Exchange Server 2013
If I upgrade the Mailbox server with a service pack or cumulative update, then for a given mailbox hosted on that server, all data rendering and content conversions for that mailbox will be local, thus removing version constraints and functionality issues
that arose in previous releases.
Exchange 2007 Servicing
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/dd421853(v=exchg.80).aspx
Deployment Order
Our test infrastructure guarantees that Exchange hotfixes work across multiple server roles. The order in which you apply the update rollup to the servers is not important except if you are deploying CAS-CAS proxying. Because the update rollups are not segmented
for different Exchange server roles or for specific file configurations, apply each update rollup package to all Exchange 2007 servers in your environment.
If you have multiple Active Directory sites, and if you deploy a Client Access server in the proxy sites that do not face the Internet, you must
apply the update rollup to the Internet-facing Client Access servers
and to the non-Internet-facing Client Access servers in the proxy site simultaneously. For other Exchange 2007 configurations, we recommend that you
apply the update rollup package to the Client Access servers before
you apply it to servers that are running other Exchange 2007 server roles, such as the Mailbox server role, the Hub Transport server role, and the Edge Transport server role.
Note:
Applying service packs and update rollups to clustered Mailbox servers requires specific planning and application steps. For more information about how to apply service packs to Exchange 2007 clustered Mailbox servers, see
Upgrading Clustered Mailbox Servers to Exchange 2007 SP1 or later. For more information about how to apply update rollups to Exchange 2007 clustered Mailbox servers, see
Applying Exchange 2007 Update Rollups to Clustered Mailbox Servers.
For Patching and compatibility between versions:
Determine the service pack level of Exchange.
Update rollups are service pack dependent. For example, an Update Rollup 5 package is available for Exchange 2007 and for Exchange 2007 Service Pack 1. To determine the service pack level of Exchange, examine the
ExchangeVersion property. For more information about how to view the
ExchangeVersion property and about the build number that is associated with each Exchange version, see
Exchange Server 2007: Platforms, Editions, and Versions.

E-commerce service pack install

I am struggling to find documentation on how to install a service pack on a customized ISA e-commerce scenario.
The application has an NWDI track and I have the following SCAs ready for install.
SAPSHRAPP11P_11-20001151.SCA
SAPSHRJAV11P_11-10002938.SCA
SAPSHRWEB11P_11-10002937.SCA
If anyone could at least point me to the correct documentation I would very much appreciate it. Even better would be a step-by-step guide!!
Thanks in advance.
Craig
Edited by: Craig Morgan on Feb 27, 2008 6:14 PM

Seriously though, someone must know the answer to this.
You spend a year customizing an application, make thousands of changes.... a service pack is implemented and pulled in to NWDI... when you have a look at the active version of, for instance, order.jsp from NWDS you see, of course, a whole new order.jsp with none of your modifications... right now you don't want to;
1: Synchronise in case you lose a years worth of work
2: Check-in incase you overwrite the service pack
How are service packs handled in this environment? Do SAP recommend sticking with the version you bought and never updating or is there a simple way around this?
Thanks again,
Patrick.

SAP List of Supported SQL Server Service Packs and Cumulative Updates

Does SAP provide a list of SQL Server Service Packs and Cumulative Updates that will work with BPC 7.0 and 7.5? I see that CU 12 is out for SP1 and CU 2 is out for SP2. I would like to know if I can move the SP2 CU2 or SP1 CU12. My install docs are outdated specifying SP1 CU6.
Any direction is appreciated.
Joe

Hi,
Please take a look at the below list of the supported OS: This excerpt is from the installation guide.
SP04 or later: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard or Enterprise Edition with or without Hyper-V
Windows Server 2008 Standard or Enterprise Edition with or without Hyper-V, or
Windows Server 2008 Data Center with or without Hyper-V
Windows Server 2003 Standard or Enterprise Edition SP2
Windows Server 2003 Standard configured on the SQL database or OLAP server components only
Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard or Enterprise Edition SP2
SAP recommends using Windows Server 2008 64 bit over Windows Server 2003 64 bit. Otherwise, supportability is limited.
I am not sure what did you mean by the front end. Having said that, 32 bit is supported both on the server and the client machines.
Hope this helps.

Service Packs, Security Updates and Cumulative Updates

I would like to find a document that would help me understand and clarify Service Packs, Security Updates and Cumulative Updates versions and relationships.
Things like. Cumulative Updates include old Security Updates. Cumulative Updates do not overwrite applied Security Updates, etc.
For instance,
I am upgrading a server from: 10.0.5512 (SQL 2008 SP3, After Security Update MS12-70) To: 10.0.5861 (SQL 2008 SP3 CU17).
Would the MS12-70 (2754849) I installed still be present after installing CU17? The reason for doubt was that I saw another version of MS12-70 that includes
CU 1 to 7(KB2716435). So makes me wonder about it.
I am probably not able to explain myself right but, the idea is to find a document that can explain how the build information and versioning works.
Some how I have the idea that Cumulative updates would not include Security Updates.
Thanks beforehand

Hi,
Below will give you list of Service packs and Cumulative updates for SQL Server
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321185
http://sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.co.uk/
Security updates are for Windows not SQL Server. SQL server releases Cumulative updates after that a comprehensive service pack is released which includes all fixes that were done in Cumulative updates.
Cumulative updates fix only a certain type of problem(for which they are created) and should only be applied if facing issue
Service packs are more through and Inclusive and should be applied and contains many fixes and sometimes introduces few features as well. SP are more thoroughly tested as compared to CU For Cumulative
update from Microsoft:
We recommend that you test hotfixes before you deploy them in a production environment.
This cumulative package is intended to correct only the problems that are described in this article. Apply it only to systems that are experiencing these specific problems.
This cumulative update contains all the hotfixes and all the updates that were included with the previous SQL Server 2014 update release.
Windows patch has hardly any relation to SQL server SP and CU.

SQL Server 2012 Cumulative update package 2 (CU2) for SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 - why only for x86 ?

Hey guys...
Im a little bit confused... i wanted to download the newest hotfixes for SQL server 2012...
But the download for :
2983175 Cumulative update package 2 (CU2) for SQL Server 2012 Service Pack
is only for the platform: x86 available ... but my SQL server 2012 is running in a x64 environment...
(when i checked the older cumulative updates... they're all only for x86.. can someone tell me why ? )
thanks and regards,
Dominic

There doesn't exist an SQL Express "Standard". It's two different editions.
For Express there are three 32bit/64bit editions:
Express, Express with Tools and Express with Advanced Services.
Express with Tools is essentially Express with Management Studio Tools, Express with Advanced Services adds also BI (Business Intelligence) + Reporting Services.
As for where you can apply the cumulative update, on the link you can see this:
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2, when used with:
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Developer
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Enterprise
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Business Intelligence
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Standard
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Web

Microsoft Service Pack 2 - not all versions are equal; how to update to the latest one "safe

I posted this under another topic where it was relevant, but thought the instructions I got from Microsoft were useful (as was my experience in using them as I sent back a reply to them with the problems I encountered [none of which were particularly bad]):
One important point to note is that not all Windows XP SP2 upgrades are equal.
I had a different issue and spoke to Microsoft, who advised me to uninstall the version of SP2 I had and reinstall the newest version (the old version was about 70mb, the new one nearly 250mb).
Apparently the old SP2 had quite a few problems with it; I've found the new one to be "simply stress free" since installing...
The SP2 file name I installed (ie the newest at the time I did it) was "windowsxp-kb835935-sp2-enu".
Here's their instructions - I disagree with the way round that they suggested downloading the update (ie I would strongly advise downloading the update and having it sitting on your desktop before doing anything!!! - please see my feedback email to them that follows (you will note that I had problems connecting to the internet after uninstalling the earlier version; this, combined with the fact that I could barely read what was on the screen would have given me a major inconvenience had I not done this)!!! (and don't blame me if it goes horribly wrong - it's also worth double-checking that the version of SP2 the email links to is the most up to date. I've had a quick check myself, and it does indeed appear to still be the most up to date):
MICROSOFT'S EMAIL (make sure you also read my reply below):

HiI successfully carried out the installation on Saturday.A few minor problems ensued (the second one may have cause a novice user real problems! Certainly caused me some concern whilst working through it!). I had to reinstall ATI drivers from scratch (for Radeon 9800 Pro); this was however the only set of drivers that appeared to "detach" itself. The main problem here was that instead of using the usual standard VGA driver (which it does when I uninstall it once a month to install updated drivers), it used some other driver that made the screen very difficult to see (especially on blue backgrounds!). Running ATI's total uninstall program sorted this out however, and fortunately I had the last update package from ATI still on my system. After uninstalling and reinstalling there appeared to be no further video problems.2. After installing SP2 (and before installing above), whilst I was in the process of getting everything up and running (eg installing the security updates) the system randomly froze about 4 or 5 times; the only way to sort this out was to use the power button. I traced this problem to Windows changing my wireless networking settings so that it handled everything; I have a Netgear adaptor the software for which usually controls this (Netgear Smart Wizard). Basically the two were trying to do the same task and causing crashes; on switching Windows management off, things settled down (the Netgear driver did not need to be reinstalled).3. As a minor point, after the upgrade and installing all other updates, I noted that Microsoft Update was no longer running; I had to reinstall it from Windows Update and the messages I got whilst installing suggested that it was still partially installed but that there were problems with it. It now works.4. As a final minor point, I attach the Scan log from Registry Mechanic which I ran after everything was up and running; it fixed various problems within the registry. I note that the majority of errors are inconsequential, but note that a few do relate to the various Microsoft installs; maybe the installer program for SP2/ Media Player 0 need to sort these out in future releases? Don't think they're a real problem though!The instructions supplied worked fine; one thing I would suggest is that users are instructed to download the SP2 upgrade pack to their desktop prior to uninstalling the original SP2; I believe that my internet connection problems started after I had uninstalled the original SP2 which may have caused problems downloading the new SP2. It also ensures that the download is successful (eg if the site was down for maintenance); I was advised whilst uninstalling SP2 that about 20 programs/drivers would not work properly after the uninstall and so the immediate reinstall was vital!One thing that seemed to fix after reinstalling was a problem I was having installing Media Player 0; after installing it previously, every time I checked for updates on it the whole program would reinstall. Now however this has fixed. I will let you know if I encounter any further problems, but things all seem to be fine now, touch wood.....!
Hope this helps!Message Edited by gjc26 on 0-27-2006 02:50 AM

One small thing - I believe the reason why some of my drivers were messing up was because they were SP2 specific; the older drivers and the ones that were compatible with both SP and 2 were fine.
As soon as I did the reinstall, all of the drivers/programs that were not working, worked (aside from the ones that I mentioned in my attached email above).
So, if after uninstalling the old SP2 you are told that loads of drivers/programs will not work, fear not - most should fix themselves upon installing the new SP2.

RDL Reports are not working after installing SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 in the SharePoint integration Mode

I am using Reporting Service Integration mode with SharePoint. SSRS is installed on separated machine of SharePoint stacks in Integration Mode. Everything was working properly and I could create/edit/modify RDL reports(parameters, Datasource, Subscription)
inside SharePoint and Document Libraries.
But after installing SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2, on opening RDL reports inside SharePoint I receive this error message.
The permissions granted to user 'i:0#.f|membership|username' are insufficient for performing this operation. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user 'i:0#.f|membership|username' are insufficient for performing this operation
I should mention that SSRS is installed in the SharePoint integration Mode and there is no SSRS management console.

Hi Hedayat-Abedijoo,
According to your description, you are using Reporting Services in SharePoint Integrated mode, and everything worked fine before you install SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2. After the package is installed, when you open RDL reports, the error occurred: The
permissions granted to user 'i:0#.f|membership|username' are insufficient for performing this operation.
According to my search, there may be two reasons for the problem:
This is caused when the application pool account that runs the SharePoint Web application you are on in IIS and the application pool account that SharePoint believes is running the site differ. This happens if the application pool account is changed directly
in IIS instead of through SharePoint (using the approved method).
This error can be caused when Kerberos authentication has been set up correctly and delegation in a double hop scenario will succeed, but Reporting Services integration has been set up for Trusted Account rather than Windows Authentication. This causes
SharePoint to continue to impersonate the logged-on user when contacting Reporting Services; when Reporting Services compares the application pool account to the user account making the request, they are not equal.
In this case, we can solve the problem by changing the application pool account in IIS back to the previous account and set AuthenticationTypes to RSWindowsNTLM only. For detail information, please refer to 8.3 “The permissions granted to user 'Domain\User'
are insufficient for performing this operation” in the document:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee384252(SQL.100).aspx
If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

HT1925 I cannot uninstall Bonjour and Quicktime so I can do a complete reinstall of iTunes. I get an error message stating that both are older versions and to contact technical support. I am running Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3.

I am trying to update iTunes on my desktop (running Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3) and I continue to receive an error message stating that the update cannot continue because Bonjour and Quicktime are older versions and to contact technical support. I have tried repairing both and tried to uninstall iTunes and all of it's componants and still receive the same message. Any help getting this issue resolved as soon as possible will be much appreciated.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Next, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Which service packs are the eqivalent as the Windows 7 version for W2003?

Thank you for your response to "Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .Net 2005 Server Compatability":
Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .Net 2005 Server Compatability
I did try the Service Pack update for Windows 7 and it worked and resolved the error -- Thank you!
Several Service Pack links and instructions were provided for Windows Server 2008 R2 64-Bit.
I have not as yet tried them, but I did leave out a question:
The best practice to to use the same version of any software on all platforms: development, test and production.
Since it will be requried to use the Service Pack version for Windows 7 and we are currently on Windows Server 2003 32-Bit for development and production, which service packs are the eqivalent as the Windows 7 version for Windows Server 2003 32 Bit?
We currently use NO service pack version of Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .Net 2005 Server on these Windows 2003 Server 32-Bit web servers -- what is the equivalent version which matches the Windows 7 version? -- so that all platforms are using the same version of Crystal Reports XI Release 2 .Net 2005 Server?
Appreciate all of your help.....Dave

If I understand the question then the best way to approach this is to ensure that any and all versions of what ever OS you deploy to have the latest runtime:
