Most of the discussions I've heard, talk about managing your deployment with something other than the firewall (so thousands of users aren't hitting the firewall during an update). I have questions in two areas:
1-How do you handle updates when getting pushed from a centralized manager to windows clients (assuming your clients are internal only during the update, and the firewall is NOT doing the agent update)? Are you completely uninstalling the client and then updating with the new version?, or are you simply pushing out the update and installing over the old installation? Anyone have issues/problems that have arisen from this?
2-If transparently allowed to update from the firewall, how is the firewall natively handling the GP agent client update - is it just installing new files in specific directories that the overall agent is referring to, or is it completely uninstalling the old agent, and installing the new version?
