Optimize gradually Update Endpoint Upgrade

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!

  • Hello stviglio,

    "Software update" is library, engine, product version - i.e. everything that requires a larger download and a major install. You can set it to manual (with a no-update schedule) - this is perhaps what you want for Production.

    If you mirror by pulling from the NAS side then only the NAS knows (and clients will pester you with download errors). You might encounter endpoint download errors when mirroring is in progress but they should be transient. If you'd write to the NAS from the server (security implications aside) its SUM would verify the CID but it'd take quite some time even for a small IDE update.
