SharePoint Server 2016 CU – CU download link:

After installation, remember to run the SharePoint 2016 Products Configuration Wizard (SharePoint 2016 Products Configuration Wizard), or the following command:
PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures -cmd secureresources -cmd services -install

Notice

Feature Pack 2 also includes all functionality from Feature Pack 1.

Always install both packages in this order:

  1. language independent (updates language-independent components)
  2. language dependent (updates language-dependent components)

For language-dependent packages, it does not matter which language you select, as each package contains updates for all languages.

If you install a new language pack on your SharePoint Server 2016 farm, you must then reinstall the language-dependent update package.

Remember that Distributed Cache must also be updated alongside SharePoint; see How to update Distributed Cache correctly and for Office Online Server, you must have the current RTM release; see  How to update Office Online Server.

Included fixes and improvements

The fixes and improvements listed for this CU are excerpts from official Microsoft KB articles in their original language (EN).

SharePoint Server 2016

This update improves the compliance level of cookies that are generated by a SharePoint search.
This update also fixes the following issues in SharePoint Server 2016:
  • This update improves translations for multiple languages versions of SharePoint Server 2016.
  • You are unable to access Office Add-Ins from a document that is opened in a browser when they are provided by the SharePoint App Catalog Service.
  • When you log into SharePoint by using multiple authentication types at the same time such as a SAML token and a FedAuth cookie, the URL redirection happens to the root of the web application instead of the actual resource.
  • Fixes an issue in the SharePoint eDiscovery Center portal where errors are produced when you export content from a site preservation hold library.
  • When you create a new document in Word and try to save it to a document library with a content type that has required properties, you are blocked from saving because the Document Information Panel doesn’t show required properties.
  • Calendar overlay items that are listed under Calendars in View are not clickable.
This update also fixes the following issues in Project Server 2016:
  • Fixes performance problems when you perform actions such as connecting Project to the server, trying to see a list of projects from the server, going to the Project Center page and so on.
  • When the Schedule Variance Percentage (SVP) or Cost Variance Percentage (CVP) earned value becomes very large, this causes an overflow condition. It causes the client-side object model (CSOM) or REST calls to fail when you access the project. The SVP and CVP values now have a lower limit of “-100%” and upper limit of “100%”.
