SCEP 2012 definitions not updating on few clients

Hi!
The SCEP 2012 definitions are not updating on few clients. It works for all other machines.
In MPLog i can only see that Signature update on date but not a line saying Signature updated via ...
Its not telling me where it got the updates in past and why its not updating now..
The definitions are pushed via SCCM, WSUS and MS not unc shares.
Which log file i should look for to get some answers why its not updating.
Thanks

Hi,
You can check C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log file to find the related error information.
In addition, did you configure an automatic deployment rule to deliver definition updates? If yes, I recommend you to make sure that all the clients are in the collection.
Best regards,
Susie

SCEP 2012 Definitions only updating 50% of servers

Hiya,
We have SCCM 2012 R2 installed with a SUP and use an ADR to deliver Definitions 3 times a day. We're gradually migrating servers from our existing WSUS infrastructure to SCCM for monthly patching/AV defs.
Since 27.04.14 about half the servers (around 200) have failed to update their AV definitions and are stuck on version 1.173.658.0 (the majority, but not all). I've been comparing servers with up to date defs and those without but I can't see why they're
not working. In C:\Windows\CCMcache I just see a folder created for 28.04.14 for the next def but no file in there.
The non-working servers have;
1. The same AM policies applied
2. The same client settings applied
3. They're in the same site/use same DP
4. The same SCEP version (4.3.220.0)
5. The same SCCM client (5.00.7958.1000 - SP2 client)
6. Checked they're in the collection the ADR applies to
7. Log files show they're pointing to SCCM server and have same GPO settings as working servers
8. WUAgent is the same version
I've trawled through the SCCM client logs, used MpCmdRun.exe
-getfiles and looked through those but can't see any errors.
Of note, the WUAHandler.log shows the last update getting installed but then subsequent scans run, complete and there are no further "Update (Missing): Definition Update for Microsoft Endpoint Protection" entries.
Any help gratefully received!
Thanks

Ok still no joy unfortunately.
Checked the CAS/ContentAccess/ContentTransferManager/DataTransferService logs on an updated server and non-updated server and the only difference I see is this on the non-updated server;
DataTransferService.log
QUEUE: Error restarting queued DTS job {0A28D485-63C0-4C43-B942-7ECD4BFAE938}. Code 0x87d00215

I Couldn't find much on the "Failed to find update" error but from this point i don't see any "1. Update (Missing): Definition Update.." entries since 26.04.14 for the non-updating servers, but it does show the async searching and scans
completing.
Also, working machines have 2 or 3 folders per ADR deployment in the C:\Windows\CCMcache containing files called AM_Delta_Patch_1.173.1491.0.exe etc. but non-working ones have folders with one AM_Delta.exe and 5 or 6 empty folders with the same date.
Was thinking i'd locate the old defs in All Software Updates but they only go back as far as defs released on 30.04.14 so am a bit stumped!
Thanks

Forefront Endpoint Protection Definitions Not Updated via SCCM (SCCM 2012 SP1)

Hi All
We have an issue of FEP definitions not updating correctly.
1. Clients getting definitions updates from the internet, not SCCM. Any solution?
2. Currently, we have around 20 workstations installed with FEP but having more than 7 different definitions versions within those. Waited for a couple of days but still not updating.. kind of random.
Any advice where to check or what is to be done?
Regards,
Xavier

(Assuming you are using ConfigMgr 2012)
Part of the Antimalware policy is the tab Definition Updates, in this tab you can define the update location(s). Also, in the normal client settings you can disable the client from going online for their initial definitions.
Make sure you are deploying the latest updates via ConfigMgr (either via an ADR, or a custom Software Update Group).

Status for the transferred Suppliers is not updated in ROS client!

Hi all,
We are running on SRM 5.0(Sp6).After i transfer the propects from ROS to EBP and when i convert them to VENDOR in EBP,then the status of the suppliers become "RELEASED" in EBP but the status is not updated in ROS client.
What is to be done so that once the prospect is saved as a VENDOR in EBP,its status should be updated /set as RELEASED in ROS client too?
Any help is appreciated...Points will be rewarded.
BR,
Disha.

Deepti / Ramakrishna,
As per Rama's comments, the BP status is released only when we use SUS and the information is passed via XI. However in our case we have ROS (without SUS) and EBP in same client. In this scenario XI is not required to transfer the Business partner status as per OSS note 1134978.
So any idea how do we change the status from ACCEPTED to RELEASED?
Deepti - in one of the thread you did mention about a workaround to update the status? Did you manage to crack it?
Do you recommend having separate client for ROS, so that system automatically trigger XML message by standard?
Regards,
Sandeep Parab

SCEP 2012 definition updates makes no sense

Hi, i´m trying to figure out how SCEP updates are working, we are evaluating SCEP on some servers and workstations at the moment and some clients have the latest updates, some have one version old, and som have even older.
For example.
This morning at 04:00 we had an SUP sync and a ADR was created at 04:02 with definition version 1.169.1999.0.
Today at 10:27 one of the clients updated its definition, but to version 1.169.1904.0. Why did it choose an old update? Several clients had already updated to the .1999 version. And why so late? Our antimalware policy is set to check for updates every 1 hour.
The computer powered on at 07:45.
I have looked in the MPlog.log file, but it doesnt make sense either, according to one machine it updated to definition v.1.169.1258.0 mars 31. it is the latest record, but when i check SCEP gui on that machine it have updated to 1.169.2028.0 today.
What am i missing?
Regards Erik

1: And with this configuration all your clients gets all definitions that MS releases during a day?
It looks to me with that config that you will only get definitions that releases before 5AM and then if it arrives 2 more definitions that day you will not recieve them until the next day. is that correct?
2&3: Yeah, i need to do more trouble shooting, yesterday before I went home i made sure that we used Client Notification and that the FW port was open. I set antimalware policy to: update interval: 0. Two sources (configmgr and ms update). Daily update
check at 12 AM. And force to look outside ConfigMgr if no definitions have come within 24 hours from the last update.
It still goes outside to update definitions from MS Update.
I have now set "If ConfigMgr is used as a source for definition updates, clients will only update form alternative source if a definition is older than _ hours" to 720, so hopefully it will start getting updates from only ConfigMgr so i see that it
works.
5: The SCEP ADR is targeted to a collection that includes two other collections.
Client collection: A query that gets all windows 8.1 workstations.
Server collection: A query that gets group membership from Active Directory
6: One more thing, how is it about multiple antimalware policys? we have the default policy at order 10000 and then we have an others at order 1 and 2. For server the default and the one at order 2 active. both have different definition updates entries, but
the one i want to win is in the policy with order 2. the policy with order 2 will always win, right?

SCEP 2012 Definition Updates for Linux machines thru SCCM

We have a situation where SCEP definition needs to be updated on Linux machines which don't have access to internet.
All I have read is that SCEP functions as stand alone for Linux & Mac machines. Can someone guide thru how do SCEP definitions get updated on Linux machines that are not connected to internet.

Pls check the below link

SCEP 2012 and GP Update

SCEP 2012 Client settings currently have "Install Endpoint Protection client on computers" set to Yes. This is deployed to quite a few machines. The client installs just fine, everything updates, and we are set. In the Endpoint Protection Agent
log shows periodic checks for if SCEP needs to be installed. Which technically isn't an issue and eventually I'll flip this setting to No and leave it Manage only.
However, around the times it checks the client I notice a GP Update kicking off. Does anyone know if installing SCEP or having the client check to see if it is installed kicks off a GP Update?

Interesting. I didn't think to check that specific log. I do see activity in there for other GP objects besides SCEP. Perhaps it runs the equivalent of gpupdate /target:computer
I don't think I see any user items in there.
This reminds me of an issue I ran into before. Take the scenario of a domain joined machine that is currently connecting via the Internet. You have an IBCM server set up, so Internet connected machines are able to receive policy and software. You would think
that would include changes to SCEP policy too. However, if you make a change to SCEP policy and then try to update policy on the client, it won't actually apply the SCEP policy changes until it's back on the domain. I guess that's because whatever ConfigSecurityPolicy.exe
is doing requires a connection to be made to a domain controller and even though the SCEP content is stored locally in an XML file, it can't finish the process of getting it into Registry.pol and then into the Registry itself until it can connect to the DC
again.
Seems like it would make more sense to just import it directly into the Registry and bypass the GP client entirely. Anyway, I don't mean to hijack the thread but it would be nice to see Microsoft clarify exactly what's going on in both cases :-)

Norman Virus Control Definitions Not Updating

Hello,
Running Forefront Protection 2010 for SharePoint and the Norman Virus Control engine and definitions have not updated since the 29th January. The logs show that an update check is being carried out but that Forefront does not think that there are any new
definitions.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Thank you.
Kind Regards,
Stephen

Hello,
According to this page
http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?LN=en-us&c2=12300&x=16&y=20 both Forefront for SharePoint 2010 and Exchange 2010 will be supported until Dec. 31st 2015.

SCEP 2012 definition flow check via client logs

Hi!
I am looking for some documentation that contains detail information how definitions looks in the logs when client is updating definitions.
Thanks

Here's a recent blog post that gives a high-level view of the Windows Update process from a ConfigMgr client's view utilizing a software update point. It's relevant to any software update, but the specific example used in the screenshots is for a SCEP definition
update, so it might be more along the lines of what you are looking for:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrdogs/archive/2014/06/30/configmgr-2012-windows-update-client-process.aspx
The key log is the WindowsUpdate.log because it will show you the source of update, whether it is coming from ConfigMgr or directly from Microsoft via the Internet (for example).

SCEP 2012 definition source location

Hi!
Where i can find the exact log entry from where my client updated its last definition.
I saw some documentation where its pointing to MPlog and in that log i need to search for "signature updated via" in the MPlog but i dont have anything like that in MYlog. I want to see if my clients updated from my internal definitions server,
Ms site etc.
Thanks

Try C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log and search for "Definition Update for Microsoft Endpoint Protection" (or just "endpoint", for example). If it's coming from ConfigMgr, you should see something like
Agent: Installing updates [CallerId = CcmExec
and if it's coming directly from Microsoft, you should see the URL it's downloading from.

Exchange2010 not updating OAB/Outlook clients not downloading updated OAB

I have been trying to figure this problem out for a month.   We have Exchange 2010 running on Server 08 (SP2).    For over a month, any change made (IE: New User, Removed User, Name Change, etc) will not show up
on the client side address book (Outlook 2007 or 2010).
There are A LOT or other forum topics like this and I've probably read them all. None of them solve this issue for me, but they do help me find workarounds, which I hope can useful in finding a fix.
What I've learned:
- OWA is not affected at all. All changes are instantly reflected in OWA.
- Disabling Cached mode on client manually fixes the problem (but I dont want to diable cache mode on 100+ clients)
- Deleteing the .oab files in the user app data folder fixes the problem, but again, this is not a real solution.
What I've tried:
- The obvious, updating the default OAB.
- Restarting the server 100 times,
- Restarting the Microsoft File Distribution Service,
- and gently caressing the server with love.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

Thanks for all of your update and sharing. For your reference, you may learn more about OAB from the articles below:

After upgarde Nexus 1000V the product Name still not update on vSphere Client

Hi All,
I encounter the problem after i upgrade the Nexus 1000v to new version 1.1a, but the vSphere Client console sill remain the old version Nexus 1000v 4a. Anyone know how to change it?
Attached screen capture for your reference.
Regards,
Jason

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
From your description it seems that you are facing issue only with windows 8\8.1. So firstly suggest you to check with application support team, whether they have whole support for application with newer version. Also check once with application support team
regarding this issue.
This issue occurs because the local taskbar does not receive the EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE event from the system due to a timing issue. The EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE is needed to update the taskbar title information.
More information (For reference).
The taskbar may not show the application name correctly when using a Terminal Server RemoteApp
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Exchange Server 2013 Management Pack in SCOM 2012, can not update healthset status automatically

Hi, all
I have Exchange Server 2013 and SCOM 2012 installed. I have imported Exchange Server 2013 Management Pack to SCOM 2012. Now I have a question that when there is a service not healthy, I can find the red alert in my alert view with the Exchange 2013 server,
but after the service is healthy automatically, the red alert is still there. I can only make it become green healthy status after reseting the healthset status in the healthset explorer.
Does anyone know how to make the server become green healthy status automatically after the monitor is healthy?
Thank you.
Nile

Hi,
How many Exchange Servers do you have? Does this issue only occur on one Exchange Server?
Please check the application log on the problematic Exchange server and see whether there are any related event error.

Exclaimer manager signature does not update sent items for outlook 2013 clients when using cached mode

Hi
I have Signature Manager Exchange Edition 2.0.3.0 installed on the hub servers.
I have enabled Sent Items update.
some clients are not getting signature update in the sent items of outlook while using cached mode.
from OWA, and MS Outlook when connected online, the signature is updated in the sent items.
I have two CAS servers and two mailbox servers. all with Exchange 2013 SP1
I tested each CAS server for the URLs of Autodiscover and EWS, with no errors or warnings.
I also test Autodiscover through
https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com . I go successful result.
Outlook clients are updated to the latest version 15.0.4701.1000
for outlook clients; I deleted outlook profile, deleted outlook folder in the user profile, re-created the outlook profile, with no luck.
from Exclaimer event logs on the Hub servers. the sent items update is successfully updating clients. below is the screenshot of an event for one email message which is successfully updated from exclaimer but it did not update on the client outlook while
using cached mode.
Since the issue is with multiple users, I am searching for a centralized solution
Mashhour Faraj

Dear Mashhour
Here you go
Employees can see their email signatures and disclaimers
With Exchange 2013, a Microsoft Outlook user can’t see any added email signatures or disclaimers as they are added to an email when it passes through the Exchange server.
Signature Manager Exchange Edition lets email users see their email signature and corporate disclaimer within the Sent Items of their inbox, giving them visual confirmation of the processed email
Source -
http://blog.exclaimer.com/exclaimer-signature-manager-vs-microsoft-exchange-2013/
Updating to the latest version of signature manager exchange edition will help you to resolve this problem for sure
Or you need to contact them to find a solution on this .
I'm pretty much sure that this problem is related with some version mismatch on their s/w on exchange 2013 which is causing this issue.
Remember to mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question.That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you Check out my latest blog posts on http://exchangequery.com Thanks Sathish
