I just installed Windows 2003 SP2 in 3 of my servers. Here are my expreiences:

Server 1: This server is configured as a web server with multiple IP's for different 
domain names.

After the installation of the SP, all the IP's where completely erased, even the 
primary one.

Solution: Assigning the IP's solved the problems.

Server 2: This server is an IVR server (Interactive Voice Response). After the installation 
of SP2, the server never booted up again. It just stayed in the loading windows screen. 
No matter how many times I tried to reboot it.

Solution: None. Had to reformat the drive

Server 3: Another IVR server with Identical configuration as the previous one. For 
some reason, the update went like a charm.


Ver very careful when installing this updates. Backup all the information, warn your 
custumer of possible down times and, be prepared for anything.
