What I probably recommended was to disable (uncheck) "Check for certificate revocation" on the Exchange server computers.

Added note: When we went from SP1 to SP2, I posted on the old list and I believe it was Michael B. Smith that provided an optional step to speed the install up. It had to do with temporarily disabling a service or config or something, but I can't find my notes on that upgrade and the old list is now gone. We started the first server upgrade and it was taking a long time but eventually completed. I asked if that option step had been applied and told no - somehow it was missed on my clear checklist. On the next server, we applied that option and it was much faster - as Michael had indicated it would be. Not sure if this applies to the SP2 to SP3 upgrade but if so, hoping Michael or someone may have some comments on this. Not an "issue" by any means, but I am always nervous as I watch the clock tick on any upgrade.

That's what I need to know. We do have a Blackberry server as well. Hopefully there will be no issues.

From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Leedy, Andy Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2013 12:32 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [Exchange] Applying Service Pack 3 to Exchange 2010 I just want to check to see if I'm correct before applying the latest Service pack and rollups to our Exchange environment. We have 2 CAS/HUBs and 2 DAGS in an active passive failover setup. All the servers are currently running Exchange 2010 Service Pack 2 rollup 2. I want to bring everything up to the latest. So, I assume I start with the CAS/HUB and apply SP3 and then rollup 3 one server at a time. Then do the update the passive dag server, failover and update the other DAG. Mainly what I'm looking to find out is if I can go directly from "Service Pack 2 Rollup 2" to "Service pack 3" and then just apply "SP3 Rollup 3". Any known issues with SP3 Rollup 3 or gotchas you can think of would greatly appreciated as well.
