Try the following steps

The following steps have been shown to resolve this issue. Note that these steps assume the default installation directories for the SEPM:

1) Stop Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Service.

2) Navigate to C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\db\ within Windows Explorer.

3) Locate the sem5.log and rename it to sem5.log.old

4)Open a command prompt  and navigate to the following location: C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\ASA\win32

5)Issue the following command: dbsrv11 -f "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\db\sem5.db
