SQL 2005 SP3 now supported with SCCM 2007

[anyweb]

SQL Server 2005 SP3 is now supported for SMS 2003 and ConfigMgr 2007

Just a quick FYI that the Configuration Manager team recently completed testing and SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 is now officially supported as a site database for the following products:

 

Systems Manager Server 2003 Service Pack 3

System Center Configuration Manager 2007 RTM

System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP1

System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 (with SQL Reporting Services)

 

Cumulative update package 1 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3

Yesterday I mentioned that SQL Server 2005 SP3 is now supported for SMS 2003 and ConfigMgr 2007 but as an interesting side note did you know that if you move to SP3 of SQL 2005 you're still not at the latest patch level? There's actually a Cumulative Update out for SP3 so you should install SP3 and then CU1 to be completely up to date (Note: This cumulative update is not required for supportability with the previously mentioned products).

is there a 32-bit version for the CU?

I just looked at the links profided by Niall and they show x86, x64 and ia64 versions of the updates

I'm really confused. I've just installed SQL 2005 sp3 on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64, and don't know which hotfix to download: the CU1_SNAC or the CU1?

 

Thanks for reading.
