Hello Frank,
Thank you for your post.
Please allow me to confirm that my understandings are correct. As I
understand it, the issue is:
You would like to know if it is proper to install Exchange 2003 Service
Pack 2 on your SBS Exchange 2003 server directly and skip the Exchange 2003
Service Pack 1 and later hotfixes.
If I have misunderstood your concerns please feel free to let me know.
Generally, as Dave indicated, we don't have to first install SP1 before SP2
installation. However if you have multi Exchange 2003 servers in your
domain and have front-back end structure, please note that before you apply
Exchange Server 2003 SP2 to a new Exchange front-end server, make sure that
you apply the required service packs and hotfixes to bring both the
front-end and back-end servers to the same update level. For example, if
you still have a back-end server that is running SP1, you must apply SP1 to
your front-end server before you apply SP2.
As Exchange server 2003 SP2 cannot be removed manually once installed,
please perform a fully SBS backup before your installation. Also run SBS
BPA tool both before and after SP2 installation as Larry mentioned.
