Update failed to version Engine: 5301.4018 DAT: 5597.0000 - SOLVED

Same here.
Running 8.5 and 8.7 .
About 20% of PCs not taking new engine.

Even tried upgrading 2 nearly identical PCs that were on 8.5 to 8.7 .
PC #1 had the engine update issue, went to 8.7 all was fine.
PC #2 was fine, but due for an upgrade to 8.7 too. Once on 8.7 it got the engine problem.

Noticed that the the engines available here,
http://www.mcafee.com/apps/downloads/security_updates/engines.asp
Are all 5300, expect the "EPO only" versions.

We are not EPO, but plan to test with some of these soon.

Found this info on 5301, should be some answer here, but have not had time to digest it yet.

VirusScan Enterprise + AntiSpyware Enterprise 8.8 Engine Version 5400 for storage

We have 2 servers which is running with VirusScan Enterprise + AntiSpyware Enterprise 8.8  Engine Version 5400 for storage. Those servers are in unmanaged from ePO. Till Yesterday we updated DAT file using Sdat.exe  manually.But Unfortunately from today It has stopped by Mcafee.

We have plan to convert unmanaged to managed with next cycle window.Mean while I have below questions

1.Shall I Install  7146xdat.exe  instead of SDAT on locally to the Net App Storage servers for running DAT up-to-date.

2.Is that reboot require after installation?

3.7146xdat.exe  is compatible with Engine Version 5400 which is currently running to the NAS server.

4.Is there any impact for installation of  7146xdat.exe?

Please revert back ASAP.
