INTRODUCTION

This article describes cumulative update package 10 for SQL Server 2008 R2. This update contains hotfixes for issues that were fixed after the release of Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2.

Note The build of this cumulative update package is also known as build 10.50.1807.0.

We recommend that you test hotfixes before you deploy them in a production environment. Because the builds are cumulative, each new update release contains all the hotfixes and all the security updates that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 R2 update release. We recommend that you consider applying the most recent update release.

Important notes about this cumulative update package

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 hotfixes are now multilingual. Therefore, the cumulative update package is not specific to one language and applies to all supported languages.
  • One cumulative update package includes all the component packages. However, the cumulative update package updates only those components that are installed on the system.
