    Posted Feb 08, 2018 03:57 AM

    i have a problem that symantec clients are getting policy very late even if i go to client and update policy after that it takes 5 to 10 mints or more some time

    In SEPM console. i made  Communication settings in Pull mode and Change the HeartBeat Interval 5 mints / Download Randomization also 5 mints but still i am facing that clients are sending logs after 1 hours and getting policies same 1 hours

    Enable sylink debugging on the client and review:

    You may be best getting a support case open as there may be specific conditions/factors on the SEPM that need to be looked at.

    Hi, 

    which version of SEP 14 did you run?

    Did you open a ticket with support?

    There is a fix in SEP 14.0 RU1 MP1 which could address this:
    Slow processing of .dat files in AgentInfo
    Fix ID: 4099486
    Symptoms: AgentInfo .dat files are slow to process.
    Solution: Resolved an inefficient database call in AgentInfo processing.

    There is also a change within the http.conf of the SEPM apache server. 
    The "ConnectionsToQueuePerChild" has been adjusted to achive a more stable SEPM.

    At the end, Support will help you to determine the root cuase of the issue.

    Please think also about some tuning options for the underlying server OS.

    Avoiding TCP/IP Port Exhaustion
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa560610(v=bts.20).aspx

    This will help to reduce the amount of open TCP connections and also help to close TCP connections where the transmission was successfully, but the ACKNOWLEDGE wasn't received by the SEPM.

    How many clients do you have? How many SEPMs?  Replication in play here?  Are you using Embedded database or Sql?
