To do this, make sure that you run the same cumulative update setup on the IBM WebSphere MQ server. You may experience performance issues if you run mismatched versions.

How to get cumulative update package 7 (CU7) for BizTalk Server 2013 R2

BizTalk Server uses a cumulative update (CU) model for providing fixes and updates. Each cumulative update includes new updates in addition to all the updates that were included in previous cumulative updates. We recommend testing and then applying the latest CU to all BizTalk environments.

All new fixes are publicly released in the upcoming cumulative update. Stand-alone fixes may be provided before the next cumulative update if the reported problem is very important, has a significant business effect, and doesn’t have a workaround. If stand-alone fixes are provided, they require the latest released cumulative update as a prerequisite.
