1. The installation process is reasonable:
A. You can install the rereleased SP1 patch package (links provided) at the same time in central administration, two front-end, and search servers
B. Wait for all SP1 patch pack installations to complete, and then run the Configuration Wizard on the central administration, two front ends, and the search server.
C. You can install the April CU patch package in Central administration, two front-end, and search servers at the same time
D. Wait for all the April CU patch packages to complete installation, and then run the Configuration Wizard on the central administration, two front ends, and the search server.
Note: The server farm should be in English, and if you have other language packs installed, you will also need to install the corresponding SP1 for each language pack after installing SP1.
2. Before upgrading, it is recommended to back up critical databases (such as content databases) and custom developed solution files and other settings that are not deployed through solution (such as ports in IIS, protocol bindings, etc.)
Suggest generating a farm report:http://spsfarmreport.codeplex.com
3. Before upgrading, it is recommended that you try to test the/UAT environment before deploying the upgrade in a production environment.
4. Theoretically, a running workflow instance is affected typically when a workflow definition file is changed, and the SP1/CU patch installation does not affect the custom workflow definition file and therefore does not run the workflow.
If the state of the workflow instance suspend occurs, the associated workflow can be obtained through splist.workflowassociations, and then the associated instance state is determined according to Splistitem.workflows.
The following validation is performed in the UAT environment:
1. Install SP1 Chinese Language Pack, can I install it successfully? If you can, run the Configuration Wizard after installation, and then install CU.

2. If the installation is unsuccessful, test the following scenarios:
A. Uninstall the Chinese Language pack:
B. Installing CU
C. Run the Configuration Wizard
D. Install SP1 Chinese Language Pack
E. Running the Configuration Wizard
F. Installing the CU again
G. Running the Configuration Wizard
1. Please execute the following command on WTCSPS01, WTCSPS02, and return the results to me:
CD "C:\Program files\common files\microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\bin"
Stsadm-o Localupgradestatus
2. Continue to execute the following PowerShell commands on these 2 machines to reply to the results:
get-spproduct-local | select * > C:\patch.txt
get-spproduct–local | % {$_. Serversmissingthis | % {$_}} > C:\patch2.txt
get-spproduct–local | % {$_. Patchableunitdisplaynames | % {$_}} > C:\patch3.txt
3. Repeat step 1 to return the results to me.
4. Execute the following statement for the configuration database to collect its results:
SELECT O.name, i.*
from [Sharepoint_config]. [dbo]. [Serverversioninformation] I with (NOLOCK), [Sharepoint_config]. [dbo]. [Objects] O with (NOLOCK)
where I.serverid = O.id and i.product like '%language pack% '
5. Run the Configuration Wizard again on the Central Administration server, such as the problem persists, collect pscdiagnostics-< date >-< time;. log and upgrade-< date >-< time >.log
