  • 1.  SEPM Clients getting updates before SEPM Server obtains the definiions

    Posted Apr 13, 2013 12:39 AM

    Hi,

     

    We are using SEPM 12.1.x.x version. We have some 2000 Client computers managed by the SEPM Server. These 2000 computers are distibuted in some 300+ groups. The Windows definitions as can be seen from the "Home" page of SEPM is

    Latest from Symantec: 11/04/2013

    Latest on Manager: 11/04/2013

     

    That means all the client computer should be updated till  11/04/2013. But it can be seen that some group has machines updated till 12/04/2013. Can anyone explain from  where did this last update reach from ?

     

    Regards,

    Anish

    Hi,

    Check particular group SEP live update policy.

    uncheck the second mark i.e. "use a liveupdate server". Once changed the client should take the policy and update only from SEPM.

    these clients might be laptop clients.they might have the policy setting to get directly from Internet.

    You should also check their region as there is time difference.
