Sophos Enterprise Console - Secondary Update Server

Hi All,

 

Currently having an issue where we have the Primary and Secondary Update servers listed on the SEC.

The primary, which is our on-prem server shows up on client machines but the secondary does not (this is linked to the account username and licencing key).

Is there a reason the secondary is not showing up?

 

All help appreciated.

 

Kind Regards

Stephen

  • Hello Stephen,

    you did reprotect them and they did connect after install, i.e. the down-arrow and the hourglass disappeared from the computer icon and there are no error messages?
    You can in addition check from the Computer Details view, column Last message time.

  • Hi Christian,

    I reprotected them, got the hourglass, then they went back to a cross next to the machine

     

     

    Above is what I am currently seeing

     

    Kind Regards

  • Hello Stephen,

    guess the error reported are install errors, could you check the Alert and Error Details view, the Update errors column is on the far right. Or double-click a computer to view its details.

    Could it be that a firewall (network or server-local, unlikely on the endpoints) is blocking the connection? Simple test is to try to telnet to port 8192 on the management server from an endpoint.

  • Hi Christian,

     

    I get the following on the install error section on most of the endpoints.

     

    Kind Regards

  • There's also nothing blocking ports as far as I can see

  • Hello Stephen,

    the could not be started can have several reasons, but it seems the install has run on those not yet managed. This usually means that the install task has been run the endpoint has not yet "called back".
    Can you confirm that a telnet connection from one of these endpoints to the server's 8192 succeeds?

  • Hi CHristian,

     

    I have tested this and it is not getting blocked

  • Hello Stephen,

    so you do get back a string that starts with IOR: followed by quite a number of hex digits?

  • IOR:010000002600000049444c3a536f70686f734d6573736167696e672f4d657373616765526f757465723a312e300000000100000000000000a4000000010102000e0000003139322e3136382e312e3134310001204100000014010f004e5550000000210000000001000000526f6f74504f4100526f7574657250657273697374656e740003000000010000004d657373616765526f757465720000000300000000000000080000000100fc00004f415401000000180000000100fc00010001000100000001000105090101000000000014000000080000000100a60086000220

    Connection to host lost.

  • Hello Stephen,

    guess I don't disclose any secret information here. The IOR advertises 192.168.1.141 as the management server's IP, is this the correct address?
    If so, and if this endpoint does not appear connected please restart the Sophos Message Router service on the endpoint and then check the latest Router-202001....log in %ProgramData%\Sophos\Remote Management System\3\Router\Logs. It should help to determine why the endpoints don't talk to the server.
