Issues that are fixed in this update rollup

Update Rollup 2 for System Center 2012 R2 Service Provider Foundation resolves the following issues:

• When you resize the dynamic memory of virtual machines to a new maximum memory size that exceeds the original maximum memory size, an error occurs, and the resizing operation fails.

• When many subscriptions are created or edited at the same time, the subscriptions may end up in an out-of-sync state.

• The Add-UserRoleProperties.ps1 script does not prevent a VMNetworkQuota object that has a null stamp ID from being created. Then, a failure occurs in the Windows Azure portal during synchronization of the subscriptions.

• When you update a customer quota through SPF, an exception is thrown if one of the artifacts that is being updated is missing in Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM).

• The Get-SCSPFVMRoleGalleryItem cmdlet does not populate the ResourceExtensionProperty property as expected.

• You cannot create a virtual machine from a Windows Server 2012 R2 VHD by using Microsoft Azure Pack. This issue occurs because the product key of the VHD is not specified.

Update information

Notes

• If customizations have been applied to the Web.Config files in the RootLevel (C:\inetpub\SPF\RootLevel) and Provider (C:\inetpub\SPF\Provider) folders, we strongly recommend that you back up the files before you install the update. Otherwise, the files will be overwritten during the updating process. The customizations can be safely restored by using the backup copies after the update is successfully installed.

• This update will not provide confirmation that it was installed successfully. Any attempt to apply the update again will trigger an error message about a missing dependency (the Microsoft .NET Framework), and you can safely ignore this.

• This update does not appear in the Programs and Features item in Control Panel after installation. To uninstall the update, use one of the following methods:

  • If you have the original MSI installation media for SPF and the MSP for this update that you want to uninstall, run the following command at a command prompt:

    msiexec.exe /package Microsoft.SystemCenter.Foundation.Setup_x64.msi /uninstall kb2932939_Microsoft.SystemCenter.Foundation.Setup_x64.msp /passive

  • If you do not have the original media, you can uninstall this update by using GUID references. To do this, run the following command at a command prompt:

    msiexec.exe /package {69344E86-7183-4384-A230-499E9914BE14} /uninstall {187F0B91-1499-4DD4-8DC6-13B2DE4675CE} /passive
