    Hi

    As per KB    https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO81051.html

    Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager can incorrectly display an over-deployed license status due to obsolete clients

    There is setting as KB "Delete clients that have not connected for specified time " which by default 30 days

    as per KB if we reduced to 1 days and if some body on leave to three days or one week then its computer objected deleted from

    DB which was correct license then what will happen, if he come back after leave does computer object will be created auto or not

     

    Thanks

    Yes, the object will be auto-recreated and the license count will be updated as soon as it's connected to your SEPM server.

    Hope this helps,

    Connection is always initiated by the client, when the client is back to network, it will connect to SEPM, gets a license and uploads all the logs and will show up with green dot in SEPM console.

    Once the client checks in, it will show up in the SEPM. As long as it can connect, it will always come back.

    Yes, when user come back after leave his computer object will be created auto. SEPM will allocate license from the available seats.
