Endpoint Protection

Hi

I had current SEPM server runing 12.1 , I just want add one more as additional SEPM with version 12.1RU1MP1. & Set replication between them

Is this possible ?

ND

SEPM has to be on same version for Load balance as well as replication.

No It's not possible

Versions of the Policy Manager have to be the same

Edit.

Replication and considerations

I agree with pete & Ashish.

We need both SEPM on Same versions for replication and LB/FV Configuration.

Hi ND,

"Thumbs up" to the above advice. Different releases of SEP client will be acceptable (though I recommend always updating to the latest version) but all SEPMs have to be at the same build.  Here's the official article on the subject, which applies to SEP 12.1 as well as SEP 11:

Maintain a Consistent RU Level on all SEPMs

If there are multiple SEPMs in an organization, a consistent version of the software should be maintained upon them all. Replication failures and other complications will arise if separate sites are operating with different releases of the database schema.

Hello,

Symantec does not support multi-version manager replication scenarios. Database schemas can change from version to version, and database corruption could occur if the schemas do not match. All Symantec Endpoint Protection sites that replicate should be running the same version.

From Maintenance Release 4 (11.0.4000.2295) onwards, all Symantec Endpoint Protection Managers will check database versions before setting up replication agreements with remote sites.

Does Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager support replication between sites running different versions?

Agree with pete and ashish.. Replication is possible in same version
