    Hi,

    Can I delete or remove some data on the LUA Server? What type of data? Where I can delete the old definition of LUA. Thanks. :D

    LUA has an automated Purge options available - just set the schedule to clean up the definitions older than x days to be deleted and the system will do the rest for you.

    Hello,

    The SEPM and LUA should never be on the same server.  It's unsupported.  Here's an article on the subject:

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

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH105076

    Managing LiveUpdate Administrator 2.x Space Usage

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/managing-liveupdate-administrator-2x-space-usage

    What to do if you have Manually Deleted Files from a LiveUpdate Administrator 2.x Distribution Center?

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH132036

    Please do upgrade to LUA 2.3.2 to take advantage of improvements and fixes.

     

    An "emergency purge" option may be added to a future release of LUA.  There is a Connect Forum "Idea" (proposed enhancement request) that can be supported by those who wish to voice their interest in such an option: "Purge Now" Button for LiveUpdate Administrator 2.x

    The best current solution, if it is strongly believed that an existing DC contains files that it should not:

    1. Backup the LUA 2.x server's settings
    2. Backup the contents of the DC
    3. Delete the DC in LUA's Configure / Distribution Centers GUI
    4. Afterward, re-create the DC with the same location, name, etc

    This will wipe out all of the current contents and replace them with only the current, known-good, valid materials from the LUA server's Manage Updates directory.

    Additional Information

    There are a number of proposed changes to the way that LUA handles its content.  Admins may wish to cast a vote in support of the following enhancements to the way LUA manages updates and displays information about them:

    Hope that helps!!
