    Hello,

    Are the rapid release downloaded automatically on LUA/SEPM servers ? or is there a way to be sure to only download Certified released (once Rapid released are validated against false positive) ?

    Regards

    Hello,

    Only Certified Definitions gets downloaded to the LUA & SEPM server.

    The Rapid Release Defintions needs manual download and installations.

    Download the RapidRelease Manually from the site provided below in .jdb format.

    http://www.symantec.com/security_response/definitions/download/detail.jsp?gid=rr

    FTP link to RR defs, if needed:

    ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus/rapidrelease/

    and 

    Check these Articles to work on the steps provided below:

    No, SEPM or LUA do not update/download Rapid release defiition.

    SEPm and LUA only downloads certified definition.

    Hi Xtof,

    If you think it would be a good enhancement for SEPM or LUA 2.x to download and use RR defs, please support these:

    Add a rapid release button to the SEPM.
