We have a problem that I have yet to find a solution for.
We have:
-One SEPM
-Less than 500 clients, mostly VM's that are SAN based
When the clients use SEPM to pull their definitions, no matter what settings we choose, they all attempt to update at the same time - which kills our SAN.
It would be nice, if we could tell SEPM to only update a certain amount of client at a time. It isn't the download that kills us, it's the IO on the SAN when they all attempt to install at the same time.
Currently we are working around this using Live Update Administrator, and only allowing it to publish updates once per day. Unfortunately that leaves machines vulnerable to zero day attacks etc.
Most of these machines do not, and cannot have access to the Internet, so scheduling random 'Live Update' sessions is NOT an option.
Any ideas, or could I suggest this as a new feature?
Thanks,
Mike
