    Hi All,

    Someone can help me? I noticed that SONAR Content for many computers are Out-of-date this morning? What is the root cause and how to fix this.

    Your prompt feedback will be very appreciate.

    Thanks

    whats the sonar definition on your SEPM? you can view that under sepm-servers-liveupdate tab

    is your sepm getting updates from Luadmin or from internet, if from Luadmin check if you have select SONAR.

    machines which are 8/22 definitions do they get the updates from internet or from SEPM.

    Just want to make sure if SEPM indeed downloaded the updates

    open Liveudpate policy. on the right hand side you will find Liveupdate content. Select sonar. select use a revision. Do you see 8/22 listed?

    Sylink log would have more info. Enable sylink log and run update policy. post the log here

    or run intelligent udpater which will update your sonar defs immediately

    Hi Rafeeq,

    Why i can't see the 'inbox' directory as following paths On the SEP client :

    %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\CurrentVersion\inbox  ?

    Regards

    for inbox to appear you need to check " Enable third party content" in Liveudpate policy. Once done that update the policy on the client. it will create that folder

    Instead of waiting for it to happen you can create that folder manually.
