Update information for Microsoft Configuration Manager current branch

This update is available in the Updates and Servicing node of the Configuration Manager console for version 2603 directly, and for versions 2509 and 2503 with the following update rollups installed:

  • KB 37864969: Second update rollup for Microsoft Configuration Manager version 2509
  • KB 32851084: Update rollup for Microsoft Configuration Manager version 2503

Restart information

This update doesn't require a computer restart, but does require a site reset after installation.

Additional installation information

After you install this update on a primary site, preexisting secondary sites must be manually updated. To update a secondary site in the Configuration Manager console, select Administration > Site Configuration > Sites > Recover Secondary Site, and then select the secondary site. The primary site then reinstalls that secondary site by using the updated files. This reinstallation doesn't affect configurations and settings for the secondary site. New, upgraded, and reinstalled secondary sites under that primary site automatically receive this update.

Run the following SQL Server command on the site database to check whether the update version of a secondary site matches that of its parent primary site:

select dbo.fnGetSecondarySiteCMUpdateStatus ('SiteCode_of_secondary_site')

If the value 1 is returned, the site is up to date, with all the hotfixes applied on its parent primary site.

If the value 0 is returned, all the fixes that are applied to the primary site aren't installed for the secondary site. Use the Recover Secondary Site option to update the secondary site.
