Robocopy job for distributing Forefront virus updates
Robocopy job for distributing Forefront virus updates
- Hi,
We have three geo locations and three very large MOSS farms. Forefront was chosen for MOSS. Because of reasons beyond our control there is one FSSMC for all the farms. Currently there is lot's of latency to the farms and in the future we plan on deploying remote MOSS servers we will manage as well with even more latency expected to those locations. The Out of the box htttp distribution to the FSSMC and then to the other locations wasn't working until we set the timeout to 30 minutes. We are testing the Redistribution server now but my question is can I just pull the file to the FSSMC and use a robocopy job to send the updates to the other hubs and servers? Before I even started I thought I would ask here.

- Hi Anon,
This would not be a good idea, because if the engine that you are trying to update is being used, which often happens, you will probably find that some of the engine files are update by robocopy and others are skipped as they are locked. This will then lead to version variations between engine and definition files which will cause the engine to become unstable. The FSSMC utility (and the update utility within Forefront) has logic built in to deal with these sort of situations. - Thank You Alex! Looking forward to Stirling!
