Guest Luis Rosado Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Re: Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 So did you update to window server sp2 yet? If so, how did it go? I am planning to update my exchange 2003 sp2 server to server 2003 sp2 tomorrow. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending how you look at it,) we have an active/ passive exchange 2003 cluster, so if the windows server sp2 hose the server, we'll run off the other cluster member until we fix it. Though I hope that our BES 4.0 is ok with us updating our exchange server to sp2.....
