steps for setup child server

Hi,

We just setup Sophos Enterprise Console 4.5(replace symantec) The structure==> one primary server as parent server  updated from Sophos website. 4 Site servers as child server updated from parent server.

Anyone knows the detail steps to setup child server? Because after copy SUMInstallSet folder from parent server to child server, run setup.exe, configure this child server (source from parent, subscriptions as recommended, distribution as update to share \\child server\Sophosupdate). Got the error  'threat detection data update failed" and last updaed "never". What's wrong? Can anyone provide the detail steps with screen shot.

Thanks

  • Thank you jak for your detail guide.

    I assume the configuration of the child is with regards to the "Sources" tab is:  \\childserver\SophosUpdate

    ==> this is default setting and can resoulve . Do we need fully qualified name?

    On the child, is there anything in?

    \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sophos\Update Manager\working\?

    ==> yes, on the child server, under this folder , can find Decoded-SDDM and Decoded-Sub0 folder.

    Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sophos\Update Manager\Update Manager\

    Contain a CIDs and Warehouse directory and they are populated

    Other than that to get a feel for what has happened, looking in the log files is worth a glance.There are 2 types of logs:

    1. SUMLog[timestamp].log
    2. SUMTrace[timestamp].log

    Caputed part of logs from SUMTrace[timestamp].log
