How to repackage Windows Server 2008 SP1 with SP2
I want to know how I can repackage Windows server 2008 SP1 media with SP2, so I can perform an in place upgrade of Windows server 2008 to Enterprise.
I have a server running Windows Server 2008 SP2 Standard and want to in place upgrade to Windows server 2008 Sp2 Enterprise. I can't find a media for Enterprise with built in SP2

Hello,
AFAIK no media exist this way and Microsoft did not offer the SP integration as in earlier OS version. So maybe you find a 3rd party tool or you remove the SP2 before upgrading.
Personal i would not inplace upgrade a server, especially not a DC.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.
