We want our Symantec Endpoint Protection client has update schedule by Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager, so they can update virus definitions from Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager policy schedule.
My question is how to setup LiveUpdate policy that meet my requirement ? we don't want our client update from LiveUpdate server, thanks.
- It's not possible to use schedule for downloads from SEPM, SEP client will download virus definitions from the SEPM by either its heartbeat (client pull mode) or when if in push mode - take the definitions as soon as these are available on the SEPM.
....the schedule option you see in the Liveupdate policy applies only to updates from Symantec Liveupdate Servers or from LUA administrator server.
The only possible options for you would be:
- set the clients to update from internet -> then the schedule will be honored
- set the schedule for the SEPM downloads from internet server itself as desired -> clients won't download any update until SEPM gets them first (its not best solution though)
- use LUA in the environment - all kind of scheduling is possible with it
