Installing Sophos Update Manager in locations with Low Badnwidth

Hi

I have installed Sohpos Update manager on a good few of our sites and all is working okay.I was installing the update manager directly from the server where Enterprise Console is set up.Then it would download all the binaries, seems to copy over around 300mb or there abouts.

Just wondering If I needed to set up Sophos Update Manager on some of our locations, which have satellite links, is there any way around having all this data copied over the satellite link the first time.

I was thinking of copying the install files from main server to cd, and then copying Update folder from another Update Manger onto cd, then installing update manager.

In the hope then that when it updates the next time, it will already have bulk of data so would need a large copy the first time

Any thought, or has anyone done this before

Thanks

  • Hello KMD,

    no pain, no gain :smileywink:. Indexing service or something like it are usual suspects but it on the rare occasions I've encountered a similar error they weren't involved

    Just deleting all and everything (CIDs and Warehouse) would foil your efforts, but emptying only the affected CID (you don't have ESCOSX, do you?) might be sufficient and shouldn't result in a complete download, SUM will only re-decode the files. Before doing that you should check the SUMTrace logs for lines containing boost::. The preceding or following line usually tells you for which file and CID the error occurred.
