How to check if Sohos is updating correctly in Ubuntu.

Hi,
I am testing the Sophos Freetool in Ubuntu Mate,I come from Windows and I am newbie in all this. My sophos is set for autoupdate , and looking for the way to check if was updating correctly I am not sure if is ok or not,since when I do "/opt/sophos-av/bin/savdstatus --version" I dont see the end line with the date of the last update.I have forced a manual update and looks that is correctly updating ,but not sure.From the Ubuntu terminal:
carlos@carlos-VirtualBox:~/Descargas/sophos-av$ /opt/sophos-av/bin/savdstatus --version
