Endpoint Protection

I need to install SEP12.1.5 in custom location,instead of /opt/Symantec. I need to install in /opt/SymantecNEW.

I have SEP install.sh in /home/sri. I used to run ./install.sh -i.

please help me.

Chetan Savade mentioned that it is not possible. If it is not possible, is there anyway we can achieve this in near future?

Could be done with SAVFL:

Hello,

Hi Sanghavi, please let me know how can I install using the below command. we will install SEP using install.sh file.. Do I need to edit the .sh file? If so, let me know how to perform the installation using the below command.

rpm -i --prefix <your path> sav*.rpm

Hello2sree, as you are using a beta build, you can log an incident in Symbeta for problem encountered.

Hi All,

The issue prolonged for sometime and symantec support team mentioned that its not possible to install in custom directory.

We removed /opt/Symantec directory completely and then mounted the new volume(Symantec_NewFS) as /opt/Symantec.
