How to change the number of downloaded content revisions that are retained by the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager

In Symantec Endpoint Protection version 11.0.2000 (MR2) or later, and in SEP12.1, the number of content revisions stored is configurable through the console.

• If you select Simple as an installation parameter, then the stored content revisions will be set to 3.
• If you select Advanced as an installation parameter, then the number of content revisions retained by default is directly related to the number of clients associated with the SEPM:
  • Fewer than 500: 3 revisions
  • Between 500 and 1000: 10 revisions
  • More than 1000: 30 revisions
  
   

If the SEPM was upgraded, the previously configured settings will be preserved (For versions prior to 11.0.2000 {MR2.EN_US} the default was 10).


To configure the number of content revisions retained in SEPM follow the below steps:

1. In the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager console, click Admin > Servers > Local Site.
2. Right-click Local Site and select Edit Properties.
3. Click LiveUpdate.
4. Under "Disk Space Management for Downloads", select the number of content revisions to be retained.
