Hi,

it depends by an option in the SEPM console:
Admin>servers>edit properties of the local site>liveupdate tab. There is the option "Number of content revisions to keep:" by default it is 3.
If this number is too small, the SEPM is not able to create the differences (deltas) between the definitions installed in the clients and the ones available in the SEPM.
It it is too big, your HDD will be filled up.
We release 3 set of definitions per day, therefore, to cover a long week-end, I suggest to set this value to 9-12.
Every revision takes about 200 MB (100 MB for the 32 bit version and 100 for the 64 bit version) (C:\program\symantec\SEPM\inetpub\content\{C60DC...} stores the 32 bit defs).
You cannot discard the 64 bit definitions.
If this is enough you can mark this post the solution to close the discussion,

Regards,

I am sorry but Hari is not talking about LiveUpdate Administrator that is an elephant in the machine.

In a standard installation of SEPM (usually LUA is not required), the whole inetpub\content folder is around 600 MB.

Details from my test machine today:
whole folder: 588 MB
32 bit AV definitions (3 revisions): 280 MB
64 bit AV definitions (3 revisions): 272 MB
all the others definitions: 36 MB

Regards,

All of you plz relax,

the thing is that I just want to download all the updates in my server only. And distribute to all my clients locally. I have already done that job. But recently i am facing some disk space related issue. i have to delete all temps, old downloaded defs each & every day. So what i am planing, I am just trying to know how much space  is required in an average to rectify this issue.

thats it.

Giuseppe it is very good answer....  point from ME.

samiron7567 : we are not talking about LUA....;)

did you install LUA on the same machine of SEPM?

Just a quick note: though no installer error will prevent admins from installing both SEPM and LUA 2.x to the same physical server, this combination is not recommended or supported.  The two products will place demands on the same limited resources and performance will be below what Symantec Technical Support deems acceptable for a task as important as updates.

Details are in LiveUpdate Administrator 2.x and Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager on the Same Physical Server 

Thanks and best regards,

Mick

Hi, i don't see the option "Number of content revisions to keep:"  Our company's version is 11.0. Is there any way to solve this problem? Our server's hardisk space is low due to this stupid update (150GB all full!)
