SSIS RC2 Issues

Andy Leonard walks through his experience trying SSIS 2016 RC2:

The SSMS 2016 RC2 link works just fine. The SSDT 2016 RC2 link does not work.

Fear not! The SSIS team has provided a set of updated links for SSIS 2016 SSDT for RC2. There’s other good information in that post. If you want to tinker with SSIS 2016 RC2, I encourage you to read it.

Sounds like there are still some kinks to work out before release.
