Hi all,
I'm a bit confused about SQL Server CU mechanism: I've always thinked that wherever CU was superseeded by the release of the service pack, for example CU x for SQL Server 2012 was always superseeded by SQL Server SP1, but I see that:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2777772
it is CU5 for SQL Server 2012 (no SP1) and it was released on december 6 2012
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35575
it is the SP1 for SQL Server 2012 and it was released on november 11 2012
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2765331
it is the CU1 for SQL Server 2012 SP1 and it was released on november 14 2012
So we have a CU5 for SQL Server 2012 (no SP1) released after SQL Server 2012 SP1 and after CU1 for SQL Server 2012...
