We’re bogged down with SharePoint work at the moment. So this week’s post will be a short Q&A.
A couple weeks ago I received an email from Eder. He had a technical questions about OCS 2007 R2. It went like this:
“Last year I ran the OCS2009-DBUpgrade.msi update patch. Now a new version of it is available. Should I run this newer patch before I do any OCS server upgrades? Or will the old patch be sufficient?”
He’s talking about the database patch listed in OCS 2007 R2 Hotfix 968802. It’s a group of the latest updates for Office Communications Server.
If you’re still running OCS, these are updates you should implement. Especially the database update patch Eder mentioned.
Run that first. Do it from the command line, as Administrator. After that, you should run your server upgrades for each OCS machine in the farm.
Out of curiosity, how many of you are still using OCS? Are you planning to switch to Lync?
Thank you..really informative!!
