Why Dynamic Memory -RC SP1 Not Working in Windows Server 2008 Standard or Web Edition?

[18 Feb 2011]
On Guest VM running Windows Server 2008 R2-Standard/Web Edition, you need to install SP1 RTM instead of just update the Integration Services Component.

Has you try SP1 RC in non production environment ? By now, you should have try on Windows Server 2008 Standard or Web Edition guest virtual machine.

But somehow it is not working as intended. Well, don't worry. For those guest virtual machine running Windows Server 2008 Standard or Web Edition, you need to install a hotfix. To get this hotfix, please go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2230887.

All you need to do is
a) Request for a hotfix
b) Install the hotfix on the guest VM running Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition or Web Edition.
c) Install Integration Component
d) Configure Dynamic Memory

[Update: 29 Oct 2010]
This only occur on this edition of operating system. One last reminder is the guest VM running Windows Server 2008 must install with at least SP2.

Meanwhile, no patch or hotfix is require for Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition or Web Edition. All you need to do is update the Integration Services Component.

On Guest VM running Windows Server 2008 R2, you need to install SP1 RC instead of update the Integration Services Component.
Good Luck on your testing.
