All you have to do is reboot one of the computers as a test to see if they are facing the issue that was addressed in the latest build. A reboot would fix the hang and the client would then be updated.. We have an alternate workaround as well.
Regarding this case we have a workaround in the kb link below.
Symantec Endpoint Protection definitions stop updating
https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH235075.html
Please reboot the system before upgrading so the service is not hung.
SepMasterService stops and definitions do not update until system is restarted
FIX ID: 3980481
Symptom: The SepMasterService is stuck in a Stopping state, which causes the definitions that the management server hosts for its clients not to update. If you restart the server that runs Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager, then the service runs as expected and definitions start updating.
Solution: Modified code to prevent SepMasterService from shutting down.
