Resolution

Validate that each troubleshooting step below is true for your environment. Each step provides instructions or a link to an article to eliminate possible causes and take corrective action as necessary. The steps are ordered in the most appropriate sequence to isolate the issue and identify the proper resolution. 

 

  1. Verify that the expected records are contained in the update set. See the following article: KB0535248: Verifying that expected records are contained in the Update Set.
