Optimize gradually Update Endpoint Upgrade

stvoglio

Hello everybody!

One of our customors has over 3000 clients on Windows 7 placed all over the country. That means that some of the clients have a better Internet connection some of them have a really bad one.  

Our customor inists that we update the AV Subscription manually every time its released. The problem here is that we can do that procedure only on weekends when nobody is working anymore, but we can't wake up all of the computers via WOL. That means that some offices can't nearly work anymore on Monday because some clients are getting the new Subscription that we released on the weekend before. 

Now my question is: 

Is there a way to set up some sort of neighbor cast so clients who are not up to date get their subscription update from some machine in their subnet? Or is there any other solution that you reccommend? 

Edit: We are working with Enterprise Console 5.1

Thank you in advance!

    Hi Christian!

    Thank you for your answer. 

    No we don't update every single Update just the Software Subscription. 

    So we go on Update Managers, Add SoftwareSubscription... etc. The Main Reason we do it manually is that we have to Test the new Subscriptions always for 2 Weeks in a Testenviroment before we update the Poliy for the rest of the clients.

    The thing  with the Update Manager is that a lot of our customers offices don't have a Server where we can install the Update Manager (NAS Devices as Fileserver). And installing it on a productive Windows PC is an absolute nogo
