Moving SQL Server 2017 from GDR Path to CU Path
Hello everyone, I have been scouring the internet and am not able to find the answer I need so I turn to you for assistance. Here is the situation, we have an AG set up on SQL Server 2017. Currently both of those servers are on patch 14.0.2052.1 or 5029375 Security update for SQL Server 2017 GDR: October 10, 2023. I would like to change us to be on at least CU 15 (yes I know CU 31 is the latest but the issue requiring this change is CU 15), but there is nothing I can find about how to change from the GDR Path to the CU Path. The only option I can see is to roll EVERYTHING back to the 2017 RTM, then apply CU 31. That isn't a great option as this is a 24/7 application. So, how in the world do you change from GDR to CU? Thanks in advance, Chap
