==============

We're proud to announce that Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Update Rollup 4 released Thursday Sept. 22nd, 2011!

On Friday Sept. 23rd, 2011 at 9 AM Pacific Daylight Time, Greg Nichols and Mike Gast from the Microsoft Premier Field Engineering team provided information about the recent release of Update Rollup 4 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011. They also briefly discussed the late-August release of Update Rollup 19 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 during their:

Update Rollup 4 Build number:
5.0.9688.1450


Note: Update Rollup 4 cannot be removed. Specific database updates are applied in Update Rollup at 4 that will not let you uninstall Update Rollup 4. You should back up your databases before you install this update.

Packages are available for download via:
  • The Update Rollup 4 Microsoft Download Center page (on Sept. 22nd, 2011)
  • The Microsoft Update Catalog (on Sept. 27th, 2011)
  • The Microsoft Update detection / installation process (on Sept. 27th, 2011)
    • Note: Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Updates will be pushed via Microsoft Update as Critical Updates
    • Client packages installed manually by downloading the packages and running install will require administrative privileges. If the client packages are installed via the Windows Update (Microsoft Update) system, they will not require administrative privileges
    • Consider using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or similar software distribution technologies to distribute Dynamics CRM Update Rollups internally. WSUS is a locally managed system that works with the public Microsoft Update website to give system administrators more control. By using Windows Server Update Services, administrators can manage the distribution of Microsoft hotfixes and updates released through Automatic Updates to computers in a corporate environment
    • For help with installation please see the Installation Information section of the Update Rollup 4 "master" Microsoft Knowledge Base article
    • Please review my teammate Shawn Dieken's superb blog posting "How to install Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 without an Internet Connection" which provides details on how to set up an install on a machine without access to the Internet
    • Please review my teammate Jon Strand's equally superb blog posting "CRM 2011: Silently Installing Update Rollups" whick provides details on installing CRM Outlook client update rollups "silently" in order to limit end-user interruption
for these CRM components:

Issues resolved via Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Update Rollups:

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Update Rollup 4 is the fourth of a series of cumulative Update Rollups that include fixes for the issues that are or will be documented in the "Master Knowledge Base Articles" for CRM 2011 Update Rollups.

Hotfixes and updates that you have to enable or configure manually

Occasionally, updates released via Update Rollups require manual configuration to enable them. Microsoft Dynamics CRM Update Rollups are always cumulative; for example, Update Rollup 4 contains all fixes previously released via Update Rollups 1-3 as well as fixes newly released via Update Rollup 4. So if you install Update Rollup 4 on a machine upon which you previously installed no Update Rollups, you will need to manually enable any desired fixes for Update Rollups 1-4:

CRM 2011:
  • Update Rollup 1: no updates requiring manual configuration
  • Update Rollup 2 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 contains the following update that you must enable or configure manually - details on enabling or configuring can be found in this Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
    • 2535245 RetrieveMultiple optimization for basic depth needed for local and deep depth read privileges in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011
  • Update Rollup 3: no updates requiring manual configuration
  • Update Rollup 4: no updates requiring manual configuration
Mismatched Update Rollup versions within a Microsoft Dynamics CRM deployment

In a scenario where you may be running many client workstations with Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 for Microsoft Office Outlook, a common question is whether it is supported to run mismatched versions. For example, where Update Rollup 4 has been installed on the CRM Server but the Outlook clients are still on Update Rollup 1, or where Update Rollup 1 is on the CRM server but due to updates available to the Outlook client you have decided to install Update Rollup 3 on the clients without installing Update Rollup 4 on the server.

The general rule of thumb is to try to keep the versions in sync as much as possible. However, it is permissible (though not recommended as a long-term solution) to run mismatched Update Rollup versions on Outlook client and server, as Microsoft does do some testing of such combinations.

However, regarding the other Update Rollups (for example Rollups for the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Email Router or Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Reporting Extensions), it is not supported nor recommended to run mismatched versions. A best practice is to update these components at the same time you update your CRM Server. Do the best you can to keep these Update Rollup versions in sync.

Internet Explorer 9 Compatibility

The Microsoft Dynamics CRM Sustained Engineering team extensively tested Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 against pre-release versions of Internet Explorer 9 and continues to address compatibility issues, as appropriate, against the RTW (Released to Web) version of Internet Explorer 9. When necessary, Microsoft plans to release enhancements via future Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Update Rollups to assure compatibility with Internet Explorer 9.

There are no Internet Explorer - CRM 2011 application compatibility fixes released via Update Rollup 3 specific to Internet Explorer 9. There is a Update Rollup 3 fix for an expanding memory footprint issue associated with Internet Explorer, but it impacts all versions of Internet Explorer supported by CRM 2011 - those being Internet Explorer versions 7, 8, and 9.
