Environment
- Endpoint Standard CBC Console: All versions
- Endpoint Standard CBC Sensor: All versions
- Microsoft Windows: All supported versions
- Local Mirror: All versions
- Linux OS: All supported versions
- Microsoft Windows: All supported versions
Symptoms
Cause
The Sensor is updating from both CB's update server and an out-of-date local mirror server
Resolution
Set up a scheduled task or cron job to run the update scripts on the local mirror server
Additional Notes
- If the Sensor's policy is configured to use both CB's update server and the local mirror, the Sensor will check both servers and use the server with the fastest response time
- If the Sensor connects to the local mirror server and it is out-of-date, the Sensor will roll back definitions to the Signature pack available on the local mirror
- To explore the idea of changing this behavior, please see this post on Idea Central
- The update process on the local mirror must be run manually or set up to run on a schedule using OS tools such as Task Scheduler in Windows or cron in Linux
- See the Local Mirror troubleshooting KB if the scheduled task is setup and running and updates are still not occurring
