This CU brings a lot of SharePoint Server fixes. Here is the list of fixes published by MSFT -
Project Server 2016
In this CU, there is no fix included for the Project server 2016.
SharePoint Server 2016
- Translates some terms in multiple languages to make sure that the meaning is accurate.
- The update defaults the Site.GetChanges method to 1000 changes instead of 0 when you use client-side object model (CSOM).
- If you insert comments to a document in SharePoint Server 2016 that has Visio Services, the time in the comments is displayed incorrectly if you view it on the same day at least 2 hours later. For example, 2 hours ago is displayed as 2 minutes ago.
- Assume that a SharePoint farm is configured so that team sites are on web application "A" and personal sites are on web application "B." When you try to view document libraries for a followed team site from the OneDrive for Business library through the Site Folders feature, you receive the following error message,
- This site doesn't have any document libraries. If you want to have documents associated with this site, just add a document library to it.
- When you update the background page, data-connected shapes on the background page aren't updated with the new data.
- After you switch views in an InfoPath form in Internet Explorer 11, the People Picker control displays the following error message:
a. JSON IS UNDEFINED
- When you check the data through the decomposition tree on a PerformancePoint dashboard, a loading screen is displayed and never goes away.
- The title of .vsdx documents is erased or deleted during the approval workflow execution in SharePoint Server 2016.
- Even though there are some products and updates missing on a local server, PSConfig doesn't stop joining the server to a farm. Additionally, there's a .Net framework error when you join the server to a farm.
- Provides client-side object model (CSOM) API to obtain information for web applications and site collections.
- Intermittent failure when you mount and upgrade a content database from SharePoint Server 2013.
- The license upgrade time-out issue documented in the September 2016 public update is fixed. SharePoint Server 2016 license upgrade operations will no longer fail from timing out.
- User information is corrupted because of the timing issues with Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) synchronization and site migration.
