A Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) administrator receives multiple reports that machines are experiencing performance issues.

To minimize I/O impact when LiveUpdate occurs, theLiveUpdate scheduleshould be adjusted. Here’s why this solution is effective:

Reduced System Impact During Peak Hours:By scheduling LiveUpdate during off-peak times, system resources are freed up during high-usage periods, reducing the likelihood of performance issues.

Efficient Resource Allocation:Adjusting the schedule allows LiveUpdate to run at times when endpoint resources are less likely to be needed for user activities, minimizing its impact on performance.

Maintaining Regular Updates:This approach ensures that updates still occur regularly without impacting endpoint performance during work hours.

This method is optimal for managing resource load and maintaining smooth performance during scheduled updates.
