The only "issue" I have seen with Exchange 2010 Sp2 that means a server needs to be rebuilt is from people not reading the release notes and failing to check/change the policy on PowerShell execution policy. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh529928.aspx
It is in the release notes - so it is a known issue and is easily resolved. That is probably the problem that the tech was referring to. First time I have heard of a product requiring Exchange 2010 SP2 rollup 1 as well - particularly considering it hasn't even gone out on Microsoft Update yet, so we are in the window between release and Microsoft being sure it is good and sending it out automatically.

Yeah, sure... And MS has not seen it, but he has? Don't you think it would be pulled if it were possibly bad? I'd also hazard to suggest that MS may have installed it one or three times more than he has? > Are there some things I could do before running SP2 R1 that would minimize > the chances of this happening!?
