SP1 requires the installation of 4-5 hotfixes, depending on the operating system – Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2. To install the Exchange 2010 SP1 administration tools on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, you requires 2 hotfixes.

Note: Due to the shared code base for these updates, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista share the same updates. Similarly, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 share the same updates. Make sure you select the x64 versions of each update to be installed on your Exchange 2010 servers.

Exchange 2010 SP1 has not been qualified for Unity by Cisco yet. Cisco has 60 days to qualify from the time of its release. I've seen several customers who apply SP1 and it breaks Unity as you've mentioned. From the Cisco TAC side, we would point you in the direction of removing SP1 until it's been qualified and any issues have been worked through and documented.
