Help.

For the Symantec Scan Engine, How do you push a rapid release to the Scan Engine v. 5.2.11? How do you verify that the rapid release definition was successfully pushed? How do you confirm the sequence number of the definition you just pushed?

For the SEPM v. 12.1.2, How do you confirm the sequence number of the rapid release definition you just pushd?

Verify that the SEPM content is updated:

1. To verify that the SEPM content has been updated, look in the following folders 
2. For SEP 11.0 - Check the following locations:
   32 bit definitions: "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content\{C60DC234-65F9-4674-94AE-62158EFCA433}"
   64 bit definitions: "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content\{1CD85198-26C6-4bac-8C72-5D34B025DE35}" 
3. For SEP 12.1 - Check for the following locations:
   32 bit Definitions : "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content\{535CB6A4-441F-4e8a-AB97-804CD859100E}"
   64 bit Definitions : "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content\{07B590B3-9282-482f-BBAA-6D515D3855E2}" 
4. Typically, there will be three or more numbered folders present. The folder naming convention is "yymmddxxx". For example "100602034". This is the date and build (revision) number of the definition set installed. Please note that the definition set installed may have been published the previous day and a set for the current day may not yet be available.
5. Looking inside the folder that matches the set downloaded and installed, there should be a folder named "Full" and a zip file named "Full.zip".
6. Looking inside the "Full" folder, there should be the files typically associated with a virus definition set.
