Enterprise Console on 2 Servers

Hi there,

I have recently updated Enterprise Console to version 4.5. I Would  ideally like to have 2 Servers running Enterprise Console so if 1 of my servers went down that all the clients would keep being updated with any new IDE's. Is it possible to have 2 Servers running together for redundacy.

Thanks

  • Hello bold_defender,

    there are two distinct features in SEC - one is the management server (if which you can have only one), the other is the update manager (of which you can have many).  As you want both SUMs to update from Sophos I suggest you read How to specify an authoritative/master update manager carefully. Of course you'd have to configure your updating policies accordingly.

    Backing up your database regularly is a good idea, especially If you "expect" your server to go down for a longer period.

    Another option is to specify Sophos as secondary source in your updating policy - thus "in the unlikely event" the clients will keep being updated.  

    Feel free to ask if you have more questions
