This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hello, we have recently upgraded Symantec Antivirus 10 to Symantec Endpoint protection 11 and distributed a a preconfigured install client  package to the end users.
However, when I use the client section in Symantec Antivirus management console to confirm that all users have upgraded and report to the server I can tell that some client machines are missing.

The peculiar thing is that I have confirmed and even reinstalled some of the clients and it seems all fine with the exception that they are still not recognized by the server.
Is this problem familiar and how can I make sure that all clients are properly upgraded?

Thank you, the main problem

Thank you, the main problem is however that the clients are supposed to be managed since they all share the same preconfigured managed package. The few ones that I discovered did seem to contact the server at the installation log which makes it even more peculiar that they do not show up.
