Updates for SharePoint 2013 (March 2016 CU)

The March 2016 CU cumulative update has been released for SharePoint 2013.

SP Build: 15.0.4805.1000

The March CU fixes all SharePoint 2013 products. The March CU is a full update (Uber package), requiring no earlier CU apart from SP1.

This CU contains all SharePoint 2013 fixes, including security patches, released since SP1. It does not include SP1, which is required for installation.

Because of its size, the CU is split into separate CAB files and one executable. Download all these files into the same installation folder before starting the update.

SharePoint 2013 CU – CU download link (March 2016 CU):

After installation, remember to run the SharePoint 2013 Products Configuration Wizard, or:

PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures

Important

Before installing the CU, ensure SP1 is already installed.

Installation may take up to five hours, so I recommend reading: Speeding up CU and SP installation on SharePoint 2013.

If your farm's patch level is earlier than July 2015 CU, run PSCONFIG immediately after installing the CU to update the schema of certain search databases. More at:
