I've seen many posts regarding this exact problem, but not once have I seen a resolution here or anywhere else on the internet. Surely Symantec must have anticipated people installing SEP & Live update on the same servers. As many know, the problem with LiveUpdate is it will frequently reboot after hotfixes are installed without user input. We can't afford to have our production backup server going down at random times (or, more frequently, crashing because of LiveUpdate errors).
I've disabled liveupdate in the Tools>> option menu on BackupExec12, but of course its enabled on SEP for the latest virii definitions. Despite this seemingly obvious setting, BackupExec12 refuses to listen. Live Update sitll does it thing, still fails, crashes or reboots. The only time I'd EVER want Live Update to run is when we do our monthly Maintenance, but Symantec refuses to listen.
Surely, someone, somewhere has figured out this problem? Is there a registry setting that can be modified? I prefer to find answers without opening a ticket with symantec (because, usually, its quicker), but I might have to in this case.
Can anyone point me elsewhere where a productive discussion about this is occuring ? I'm lost!
