smurphy commented on: Successful decommissioning of an MSDP - addendum to TECH150431
Good info, janderson - thanks. The great majority of Tech Articles that come out of Support are based on actual field experience in cases we worked with customers. I can update TECH150431 or we can create a new one just for 7.5 and above. Question for you:  Besides step 10 (Execute the PDDE_deleteConfig script to remove the MSDP configurations), what else would be ...

SK commented on: Change Binding Order WIN7 Altiris
Yes, you could deploy a VBS or toher script type to perform this action. What is the reason behind changing the binding order?

SK commented on: Automation Policy & Hierarchy
This is an unfotuante side effect of having hierarchy replication replicate all configuration and management items. If you don't want an item replicated that would normally be replicated, then you could change the attributes of that item. If the automation policy is enabled on the parent and child, then yes you will obviously receive an email from the parent and child nodes.

Tom Mc commented on: Protect PGP Desktop?
Seems like you could do this by using Standard, rather than Admin, Windows user accounts for all users who you do not want making system wide changes.

SK commented on: Shared GUID
Resetting the guid will not help in 7.x as the machine will still receive the original guid as the resource will still exist in the database. The only way I have found that rectifies this situation in 7.x is the followng: 1. Target the duplicate guid filter with a SMA config policy that redirects the machines to a VM SMP. 2.  Once all affected machines have been redirected, delete them ...

SK commented on: Modify package results in "Failed to process package manifest"
If you are trying to update an actual physical file, why don't you do so directly from the source and then allow the "Update Distribution Points" scheduled task to run, which will then cause any PS/client to download the changed file once they request a new configuration?

CraigV commented on: Can not add the VMware ESXi 5 Server in BE 2012.
...that's the nature of the "beast" so-to-speak! Some people don't have an issue connecting to ESX 5.1, or backing up servers running Windows Server 2012, while others do. Fact of the matter is that both products are unsupported. Therefore, trying to back them up/access them is going to give various issues. Support is correct in simply stating that both products are unsupported, and ...

Rafeeq commented on: Custom IPS Signature for allowing traffic on UDP port 161
IPS would block network based attacks based on signatures. firewall will block ports based on rules allow or deny. You need to create firewall rule or modify the existing rule which is blocking the connection. you can see that in logs on clients logs tab here is the screen shot https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/opening-ports-symantec-endpoint-manager-firewall

SteveLaw posted: Media servers and policies containing multiple targets
So here's the thing:  We have media servers with DD Boost installed for Data Domain, we have MUST_USE_LOCAL set on the server the have run the nbemmcmd that tells media servers to back themselves up. This is to ensure that DD Boost de-dupe at source takes place.  But what happens in the case of a job policy that includes two or more different servers being backed up? It is not ...
