I have 200 mobile users with laptops that I'd like to upgrade from 12.1.4013 to 12.1.6. These users connect via VPN using their cellphones as hotspots which all draw from a shared pool of data we pay for monthly. To prevent going over our monthly data cap I plan on rolling out the upgrade over the next 3 months. I can think of 2 easy ways to do this and would like input on each.
1. Attach the upgrade package to the root of our Remotes client group in SEP Manager and set it to distribute the package over a period of 90 days.
2. Create a temporary client group and set it to upgrade immediatly. Then move 1/3 of our remotes into it next month, 1/3 more the following, and the remaining 1/3 the month after that.
Which approach seems best or are they a horse a piece?
I'm leaning towards #2 because I don't know exactly how SEP Manager spreads the upgrade throughout the date range specified. Anyone here know how this works or can link me to further info?
Thanks,
