A lot of questions from me lately but I'm at the end of testing my upgrade plan to 1602 so this should be it...for now :) I'm testing the auto client upgrade process by adding a couple systems into a pre-production collection. Despite confirming that the systems in this collection were all

2016-05-17 Thread Corkill, Daniel
Just noticed this because I’m currently planning for an upgrade from 2012 SP1 to 1602. So is this issue guaranteed to occur for everyone or only some people are seeing it in their upgrades? I’m also curious if the bug is with 1511 or 1602. If the latter I might just go to 1511 and hold off

I upgraded our 2012 SP1 site the same week 1606 was released to the "early wave" and so I decided to forego the upgrade to 1602 and went straight to 1606. So obviously I was applicable for KB3180992 when it was released. No big problem, I installed it last night without an issue. However, I

Sorry to bring back this old thread. We upgraded from 2012 SP1 to 1606 a few weeks ago and I’ve noticed we’re impacted by this issue on all clients upgraded as part of the pre-prod deployment. It’s easy enough to set the cache size using client settings in 1606, but I’m not happy that the cache
