A few observations with my upgrade from 14.3 MP1 to RU1 on a PROD clone.
- if you have changed domain policy on passwords between original SEPM install and this install expect to change the password through the server management configure tool first, when prompted through RU1 it fails on error.
- If you do change the password above make sure to update the local "admin" account to match
- RU1 forces ODBC and SQL Express encrypted channel yet no cert exists so the console will error out with 0x10010000 - Either attempt to reconfigure SQL to run under an account so the permissions can be set for it access certificates or reconfigure the ODBC and SQL protocol to not force TLS until its setup.
- If you harden your Windows servers and restrict privileges this update requires the user to have the "SEeSecurityPrivilege", with out it you will receive an error in the DB upgrade section on not being able to access/update audit events.
- Expect this RU update to take 1-2 hours to complete, a DB backup and restore must happen, unlike previous updates where it could be done easily under 20 minutes.
This is the first update I would not attempt a prod only install first!

Which SQL server do you have in place for the failed upgrade in your test environment? That's hilariously sad that they want you to try it in production next.
We have a Test environment that we're preparing to upgrade to 14.3-RU1 from 14.3-MP1 (14.3.1148.0100) and MSSQL 2014. Can you provide feedback on the issue as it is diagnosed by Symantec Support?
Thank you.

Anyway have some idea how to help on this? I submit a case ( 32422422 ) with Broadcom, it seems they have no idea what is this about. I told that is happening in DEV env and believe if you can, they suggested me to try in Prod, even without having any idea what is causing the issue, root of that. They are too resistant to get cases escalated and not give a satisfactory answer. Man, that support is became painful.
Please let me know if anyway can help me on this. I really would like to figure out what is happening before trying in Production
Thanks
