  1. Can you let me know as I am planning to Install : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2619883 in our Exchange 2010 DAG setup do i need to take any Precaution while performing upgrade or this will be straight forward instillation.

    Secondly, any issues encountered during installation, after installation do we need reboot of servers or only services Restart for FPE will be good for the upgrades

    Thanks Jatin kakkar.

    • Exchange will restart the services needed during the install of the update.
      There are some recommendation regarding FPE, it’s best to stop those services during install and start them again after the update is done.
