RE: SP2

Hi Bill,

Thanks for posting here.

From the description, I understand the issue is that you want to know if
you should install the SP2. If I am off base, please don't hesitate to let
me know.

please refer to the following article for reference:

As we know,there are issues after applying the update,but that happened in
different scenario,so applying the SP2 should be some risks if your server
is running fine. Anyway,you can determine your plan to apply the SP2.


Have a nice day!
