Large Update in progress today?

About 6:00 AM PST there seems to have been a large update of some kind for endpoint clients going out.  Anyone else seeing this?  Doesn't really make sense to me as I have my update manager set to only check for product updates between midnight and 1:00 AM.  But network monitoring shows a big spike in traffic starting at 6:00 AM.  What's also weird is that the machines I see generating all the traffic show a downloading status (little yellow arrorw) in the Enterprise Console.  As if they have been re-protected, which no one has done.  And as usual, I can't get through to support.  20 minutes on hold so far.  All the endpoints show the same A/V version, 10.3.12 VE3.55.0 whether they are showing a downloading status or not.  Not too sure what's going on but it's hammering the network.

  • So did you notice if endpoints were showing a downloading status in the enterprise console at any point?  I don't have any that are doing that now, but they're still downloading something. Can't quite sort out what it is exactly.  I actually had to limit the number of connections to the update share through windows just to get things under control, so that's throwing up errors for the machines that can't connect now and makes things a little more confusing.  I think they'll all get through and finish eventually but it would be nice to know what's going on. 

    Also of note, in our endpoint's updating policies, we have them set to limit the amount of bandwidth they can use.  Whatever is going on, that limit does not appear to be applying.  Which happens if I do a re-protect, or maybe if it's going through whatever you described with regard to the RMS update.
