  • 1.  Upgrade to SEPM 12

    Posted Feb 14, 2013 03:08 AM

    I'm currently using SEPM 11 (installed at C: partition) on my Windows 2008 server. When I wanted to upgrade to SEPM 12, it rejected because it required at least 6GB space where my C: partition left about 4GB only. I saw the D: partition still got plenty of space, so I follow the first step at here to backup all the required files before uninstall SEPM11 & decided to reinstall it back to D: drive, restore backup & perform upgrade. Before I begin all these, I inserted the SEPM 11 installation CD to make sure it's still working & I got this error "Installation of Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager is not allowed on Windows Vista".

    Now I'm stuck. Anyway I can download latest version of SEPM 11 that can install on Win 2008? Or any solution to solve this?

    My SEPM version is 11.0.4014.26.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    So, you have a bacup of SEPM 11.0.4014 database, correct?

    You are trying to install the same version of SEPM on Windows 2008 again correct??

    If yes, then you may need to install the same version of SEPM of which you are carrying the backup of.

    Is the previous SEPM from the Windows Server 2008 been uninstalled??

    If not, I would suggest you to Download the Latest version of SEPM 11.0.7303 OR SEPM 12.1 RU2 from the  https://fileconnect.symantec.com/
