Event ID 8001: The Sophos Management Communications System client service has received an HTTP status 503 from the server. This might indicate that action is necessary.

Hi Everyone,

I am having the same error as well, what does this mean and what do one have to do to clear this up

Just to let you know. Nobody answer or even suggest something about this event. The Sophos community isn't the greatest I've seen.

I think this error can be ignored. Probably not a bug, but a feature -_-

Hello Christian Adole 

To add to what Pier-luc Tellier wrote, this message isn't necessarily an issue and would come up if the client is not able to communicate to Sophos after the set time limit. If the client is eventually able to connect to Sophos then it could have been some temporary network connectivity issue. If this appears to be widespread or lasts a continuous amount of time, it will be worth checking to see if Sophos Central is experiencing an outage from the link below:
