This is what I was originally trying to post, and still cant for some reason
I have an odd situation, a bit hard to explain. We manage several remote partner companies. Most have a local SEPM, some are managed by a SEPM in our office. We have 4-5 servers, where the client software stops getting defs regularly. In the case of SEPMs, the other clients that are managed are not affected, they stay current of defs. It just wont update itself. When we see that the server's SEP client is out of date, nothing we have tried on them to update (LU, manually download defs...) works. If you try to stop the service (start smc -stop), the service hangs at the stopping phase and will never fully stop. Only a reboot will clear that, as far as what we have found. Once the system is rebooted, the service is started, and defs are up to date once again. A few days later it will occur again. This is only on server 2012 R2 servers. All are the office DC, most are running a local EPM for their office, though one is not running SEPM, but is managed by our SEPM. They are all set to go to their SEPM firswt for defs. Any suggestions?
