SEPM cannot see new clients after update to MR4 MP2
Updated: 09 Jun 2010 | 20 comments
I have a rather irritating problem, I cannot see new clients in the SEPM after upgrade.
We ran endpoint 11 MR2, but with Win7 out, we have upgraded to version 11 MR4 MP2.
Steps where as follows:
Point 1) Upgrade from MR2 to MR4
Point 2) Upgrade from MR4 to MR4 MP2.
(I found some documents on this (currently I am not in the possesion of the links).
Everything went fine, and everything is up and running, and I have created a new MR4 MP2 package, that I install on our clients (manually), but now this client does not show up in the SEPM.
Please guide me, thanks a lot.

Package creation method.
Hi,
Kindly let us know how you created the package for installation. Secondly are you able to see the group structure which you had before the ugprade?

Just created them by going to
Just created them by going to admin -> install packages.
Right clicked the 11.0.4202.75 client and selected export.
Exported it as an managed client, and marked a group where to put these clients in. These clients are in computer mode.
I can see the group structure as before, so no problems here. Also all the old clients are there.
Did you check communication

Whether your client are having Green dot...? What is the Server name and group showed in client... Check the firewall settings....
Try to search the client ip address in the server.... Go to My company--> Search clients-->Select ip address from the "search field".

Very very strange.

Similar issue here.
Some clients are not visible in the console allthough SEP is correctly installed. When we do a search on that particular client we can find it. So the client is in the database but not all views are seeing this client. Very weird.
Also the views are not consistent: in the view 'protection technology' we aren't seeing clients that are visible in the view 'client status' and I should expect that the number of clients you see should be identical in both views.
Also MR4 MP2
One small difference. If I

After some research I've found what's wrong for my case.
In the dialogbox "set display filter for fat clients" you have the option to choose how many clients you like to see on one page.
Allthough you can enter a value up to 5000 you never see more than 1000 clients!!
I think this is a bug.
Workaround: never enter a value more than 1000 in the box "Maximum number of clients displayed per page".
MR5 ?
