You get to the Upgrade Introduction screen where you can read what Exchange is and does. You then arrive at the welcome screen where you choose “Install Microsoft Exchange Server Upgrade” Find the setup.exe and it will copy the files it needs to start the installation.

Nothing is more annoying then telling a customer his Exchange Organization has been upgraded to the lasted and greatest version only to follow up on that statement with the fact the backups don’t run anymore. I also made sure anti virus, backup and other agents dis not have any issues with Exchange 2010 SP2. Before I did this upgrade in production environments I tested this two time in a lab/test environment. That way you’ll have all of them on the same install base which is easier to support and trouble shoot. Once you started to upgrade it’s best to upgrade all nodes in the Exchange Organization as fast as you can to SP2. if you just want to grab the bits get them here Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2 directly from MicrosoftĮxchange 2010 SP1 and SP2 can coexist for the time you need to upgrade the entire organizations. You will also note that the Exchange 2012 TechNet documentation has SP2 relevant information added.
There you can find some more information and links to the downloads, release notes etc. The Exchange Team announced Exchange 2010 SP2 RTM on their blog recently.
