Environment

LiveUpdate Administrator 2.3.x

Symantec Endpoint Protection 14.x

Cause

Since SEP 14 RU1 MP2, definition update sizes have increased, the download size for the product has increased stress on the LUA server's system resources

Resolution

The stress to the LUA can be relieved by breaking up and staggering the content download for a single product (Example: SEP 14.0 RU1) into multiple groups.

  1. Open the LUA console and Sign In 
  2. Go to the "Download & Distribute" Tab
  3. Choose "Add Download"
  4. Configure the Download Schedule
    1. Update the Download schedule name to reflect your product selection. (Ex: SEP 14.0 RU1) Client Updates
    2. Confirm "Status" is set to "Enabled"
    3. Update Description
    4. Select Test Status 
    5. Select Schedule
  5. Add Product
    1. Select "Add" next to "Product"
    2. Expand the desired product (Click on the "+" symbol)
    3. Choose the desired content
    • NOTE: It is recommended to split the product into three different download schedules.
      1. Client Updates.
      2. Content updates - all options starting with "Client -" and linux definitions.
      3. Content updates - all options starting with  "Manager-"
    • Once the options are selected for the single distribution schedule, select "Add"
  6. Select OK
  7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 for each content group (see NOTE above)
  8. Add corresponding Distribution Schedule
    • Choose "Add Distribution"
  9. Configure the Distribution Schedule.
    1. Update the Distribution schedule name to reflect your product selection (Ex: SEP 14.0 RU1) Client Updates
    2. Confirm "Status" is set to "Enabled"
    3. Update Description
    4. Update "Distribute Content To:" 
    5. Select Schedule
  10. Add Corresponding Product.
    1. Select "Add" next to "Product".
    2. Expand the desired product. (click on the plus symbol)
    3. Choose the content that corresponds with the desired Download Schedule. 
    • NOTE: It is recommended to split the product into three different distribution schedules.
      1. Client Updates.
      2. Content updates - all options starting with "Client -" and linux definitions.
      3. Content updates - all options starting with  "Manager-"
    • Once the options are selected for the single distribution schedule, select "Add"
  11. Setup "Run Selected Distribution Schedules automatically after this download completes."
    1. Select desired Download schedule
    2. Choose "Edit"
    3. Check the box next to "Run Selected Distribution Schedules automatically after this download completes"
    4. Select the Corresponding Distribution Schedule
    5. Select "Add"
