Large Download Notification for April

Jonathan_IT

In regards to:

Advisory: Sophos Endpoint Security and Control version 10.3.7

http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/120492.aspx

Will (for example) the AntiVirus 59MB download mean 59mb synced to each endpoint? Other than throttling on Sophos update policy side of things is there a way to schedule roll out so that I don't kill my WAN?

Or any heads up we may need about the traffic, install, etc? I am just trying to get a heads up on what I should be expecting if there are any known caveats others know to look at for, etc.

    Darrens advice is better than that supplied in the KB - http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/120492.aspx

    I stupidly followed this bit of advice...

    • Change the 'Recommended' package to the 'Previous Recommended' package before April.
    • Before May revert this change to upgrade to 10.3.7.  The 'Previous Recommended' package will also be upgraded to 10.3.7 in May.

    Then ended up with 2000 PCs not complying with policy because the Recommended subscription is using VDL 4.8 whereas Previous Recommended is using VDL 4.7.  I reverted back to Recommended and 48 hours later I'm thankfully down to ~120 not complying, but SAV has reinstalled twice on all those PCs.  So much for reducing WAN usage!

    Going down the Preview route now, which is usually the route I follow, but I keep having to clear out the servers as we end up with loads of CID Sxxx folders with old subscriptions.
