Hello All , I hope everyone is doing . I have a requirement would really appreciate if you can help. Following is my envoirement.
- 2 SEPM's running which are both upgraded to the latest version 12.1.4 MP1
- The group structure hierarchy have diffrent groups which included respective endpoints residing in them
- I have about 2600 endpoints running on the version 12.1.3. Initially they were deployed using SCCM.
- Now I have a decision to make whether upgrade them via SCCM or SEPM Autoupgrade feature
The problem which I feel I Would have if I use SCCM is that the clients would go to the same group which was exported from SEPM that includes the policies. So eventually all the endpoints will be go the same group. It is not like that SCCM wont effect the group hierachy and endpoints will be updated gracefully in
their respective groups.
Now I intended to upgrade the endpoints via SEPM Autoupgrade feature becuase it is more feasible in my current scenerio. It will gracefully upgrade the endpoints and wont have any adverse effect on the group hierachy meaning endpoints will remain in their group they wont bounce among the groups.
Now the clients of mine is requiring the apporach or methadology that should be used to carry out this process of endpoint upgrade as per Symantec Best Practices that fits best in my current scenrio .
So I would be really greatful if you can kindly share an approach with me regarding the upgrade. Againt there are about 2600 endpoints so would it have any impact on the bandwith using AutoUpgrade. Please share your suggestions in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
