Hotfix-uri actuale pentru DFS-N si DFS-R

In echipa de Active Directory tratam, printre altele, si replicarea DFS. In aceasta privin?a recomandam tuturor clien?ilor sa instaleze ultimele hotfixuri pentru DFS-R, daca folosesc aceasta func?ionalitate. In acest articol voi lista cele mai importante hotfixuri.

Deoarece aceste hotfixuri rezolva probleme care ar putea aparea intr-un mediu DFS-R, este recomandat sa fie instalate pe toate serverele de DFS-R. Niveluri diferite de hotfixuri nu sunt recomandate in general, nu doar in legatura cu DFS-R-ul. Daca serverele au hotfixuri diferite instalate pot aparea probleme care sunt greu de urmarit si depistat. De aici recomandarea de a instala toate fixurile  pe toate sistemele DFS-R.

Deoarece majoritatea clien?ilor folosesc DFS-R-ul in legatura cu DFS-N-ul, sunt listate si actualele hotfixuri pentru DFS-N. Suplimentar sunt listate si fixuri care sunt relevante atât pentru DFS-R cat si pentru DFS-N (de exemplu RPC-Hotfixes, SNP etc.). Lista poate sa nu fie completa, ?i are ca scop enumerarea celor mai importante hotfixuri.

O sa încercam sa ?inem acest articol up-to-date, a?a încât sa pute?i afla daca au aparut noi fixuri printr-o simpla verificare a acestuia.

In mod normal fixurile pentru un service pack anterior sunt con?inute în service pack-ul actual sau viitor, deci de exemplu fixurile post Windows Server 2003 SP1 sunt integrate in Windows Server 2003 SP2. Pentru Vista si Windows Server 2008 aceste limitari nu sunt valabile a?a încât sunt listate (in cazul in care exista) atât fixuri RTM cat si fixuri SP1.

Deoarece unele hotfixuri pentru Windows XP si Windows server 2003 sau Vista / Windows Server 2008 se suprapun, nu s-a facut o împar?ire dupa versiunea service pack-ului. Este de ajuns sa arunca?i o privire in articol pentru a afla daca hotfixul respectiv este necesar pentru sistemul de operare in cauza.
