Automatic upgrade to v10??

Jezza

We are using Sophos Enterprise Console 4.7.0.13 and v9.5 for the endpoints.

On Friday just after 7pm, the entire group of endpoints in the v9.5 bucket were upgraded to 10.06 VDL4.79G.  Every one of them now has a warning as they all need to be rebooted.

We don't keep v10 updates on our Enterprise Console.  I'm trying to sort out what would trigger them all to update seemingly of their own accord? 

Ideas?

Thanks

    Interesting that you stopped getting updates.  The same thing happened to us.  The reason was that the new v10 updates matched a signature on our IPS.  We had to create exceptions for that and all was well. 

    I'm also building a new Enterprise Console server and want to move the endpoints across.  Again, no easy task.  As per the doco, the new EC server will want to reprotect the endpoint.  In order to prevent this, Sophos suggested that we run a vbscript on each endpoint.  Don't think I'm going that way.  I'll probably just get the server team to hold off on the reboots, create the database and setup from scratch on my new EC server as opposed to migration.
