December 2013 Cumulative Update for SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2

Aaron Bertrand SQL Server / SQL Server 2008 R2

Microsoft has released Cumulative Update #10 for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2.

  • KB Article: KB #2908087
  • 15 fixes listed at time of publication
  • Build number is 10.50.4297
  • Relevant for @@VERSION 10.50.4000 through 10.50.4296

My usual disclaimer: these updates are NOT for SQL Server 2008 (or SQL Server 2012). Only apply to systems where SELECT @@VERSION returns 10.50.xxxx, where xxxx is >= 4000. If xxxx < 4000, you need to start thinking about getting off the RTM or SP1 branch. Note that no more cumulative updates will be released for SP1, since support ended on October 8, 2013.
