Lync 2013 Server Update – May 2016

Curiously designated as an April update on the “Updates for Lync Server 2013” webpage, we now have a late-May 2016 update for the Lync 2013 server. This takes the five components that were patched last month to a “release 2.0” (or later) refresh and bumps them up from 5.0.8308.949 to 5.0.8308.956.

What’s Fixed?

There appears to be nothing fixed in this re-release. The posted “fixed in this release” details are unchanged from the April update.

What’s New?

Nothing apparent just yet.

If you’re not reading the fine-print in How to apply this update you might miss this additional installation step:

“To make the [new SLA] cmdlets available over Windows PowerShell Remote Management, run the Update-CsAdminRole command one time from a Lync Server Management Shell”.

Reboot?

Yes, the process prompts you to reboot at its completion.
