Deploying SAV 10 best practices

RogueViper

Wonder if anyone can share some insight in how they upgraded their clients to the latest version of Sophos. 

Currently I have upgraded the console to version 5, created a new subscription and share to SAV 10 recommended. Currently endpoints are running 9.5.6. 

I then placed my two desktops and my own server into a special test group. Spent a good 2 weeks using it and going about my daily business. Last week I started adding more XP desktops into the test group and so far today I'm up to 32 from a mixture of departments (total workstations and laptops ~250+)

I'm just trying to be really cautious before going along and upgrading all other desktops and then laptops. I'm going to leave servers until last and then move onto the other office site. 

Do you think I'm being too cautious? I'm just worried that il end up breaking something and causing widespread disruption .

    Hello Mike,

    as regular reader of and contributor to this forum you're aware of the issues with Web Intelligence/LSP. Don't think that anything else could cause widespread disruption . Made the move (actually first 9.5 to 9.7, then 9.7 to 10.0) a long time ago. Usually what can be upgraded can be downgraded as well (requires at least one reboot though) so you might want to test this just in case (yes, the paranoid part of me says that if something breaks it will also prevent the downgrade :smileywink:).
