The Product Update feature was introduced in SQL Server 2012 as an extension to the Slipstream functionality that was available in [!INCLUDEssKatmai] PCU1. In SQL Server 2014, the Product Update feature is the recommended method to use for slipstreaming SQL Server. Therefore the command-line parameters, /PCUSource and /CUSource, associated with original Slipstream functionality, should no longer be used. These parameters will continue to work, but may be removed in a future release of [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Setup. The recommended parameter to use is /UpdateSource which combines the functionality of the original Slipstream parameters, /PCUSource and /CUSource.
For more information about Slipstream functionality that was available in [!INCLUDEssKatmai] PCU1, see Slipstream a SQL Server Update (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=219945).
For information on how to use /UpdateSource to slipstream SQL Server builds, refer to the following:
