  • 1.  How to upgrade from SEP 11.0 MR3 to MR4?

    Posted Sep 08, 2009 02:35 PM

    We would like to know the simple method for upgrading the SEP clients and SEP Manager for a 100 PCs network we have. Our current version is SEP 11.0 MR3 and we would like to upgrade to the latst version, which is I believe SEP11.0 MR4.

    Please advice.

    Tejas,

    I would hold off for a couple of weeks.  The next release is coming this month.  At that point you can update the SEPM server, then clients.  For updating the clients there are a variety of ways to upgrade them.  If you are using the SEPM for deployment it is pretty much straight forward. 

    Open SEPM Console
    Click on clients
    Select the group you want to update
    Click install packages
    Click Add Client Install Package
    Select the latest package at the time
    Set your features for the upddate
    provide the source (if other than the managment server)
    set the schedule (if necessary).

    Good luck.

    Latest version of SEP is MR4 MP2

     Refer the document below for upgrading to latest version.


    JUst to let you know, upgrading from MR3 to MR4 MP2 directly is not recomended.

    Ideally it should from MR3 to MR4 and from MR4 to MR4 MP2
