  • 1.  SEP 11 Updates via SEPM 12.1

    Posted Sep 06, 2017 07:41 AM

    Hi All,

    We are just going through our evaluation for SEP14 and we have identified 5 v11 clients running on Windows 2000 server.  Obviously we can't bring them up to 12.1 due to compatibility and we can't change the OS at the moment as this would cost a lot of money as they are manufacturing systems.  I'm aware that support for v11 has ended and definition updates haven't been available from Liveupdate for quite some time but I was under the impression that updates were still delivered via SEPM.  Can anyone tell me if this has also stopped now as I can't find anything definitive searching Google.  These clients haven't updated since December last year.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Content is no longer created for 11.x clients. I've seen on occasion where they randomly update but it's not been tested and shouldn't be considered reliable.

    Thanks for the reply.  Do you have any idea if this was announced officially somewhere?

    Also, it's weird because I have a lot of other v11 clients which we are in the process of updating which are updating just fine.  Albeit they are not Windows 2000 machines.

    Yep, it can still happen. Again, not reliable though.
