If the Checking new repository content interval has expired since the last time updates were requested, the
SuperAgent downloads updates from the Master Repository, processes them, and completely
flushes the cache if any new content is available.
When a global update occurs, SuperAgents receive a wakeup call that flushes all content in the
cache.
SuperAgents are flushed every 30 minutes by default. When the SuperAgent flushes its
cache, it deletes every file in its repository not listed in Replica.log. This includes any
personal files you might have put in that folder.
SuperAgent caching in conjunction with repository replication is not recommended.
How communication interruptions are handled
When a SuperAgent receives a request for content that might be outdated, the SuperAgent attempts
to contact the McAfee ePO server to see if new content is available. If the connection attempts time
out, the SuperAgent distributes content from its own repository instead. This is done to ensure the
requester receives content even if that content might be outdated.
SuperAgent Caching should not be used in conjunction with global updating. Both of these features
serve the same function in your managed environment; keeping your distributed repositories
uptodate. However, they are not complementary features. Use SuperAgent caching when limiting
bandwidth usage is your primary consideration. Use Global Updating when quick enterprise updating is
your primary consideration.
SuperAgent and its hierarchy
A hierarchy of SuperAgent can serve agents in the same network with minimum network traffic
utilization.
A SuperAgent caches the content updates from the ePolicy Orchestrator server or distributed
repository and distributes it to the agents in the network reducing the wide area network traffic. It is
always ideal to have more than one SuperAgent to balance the network load.
Ensure that you enable Lazy caching before you setting the SuperAgent hierarchy.
Creating a hierarchy of SuperAgents
You can use the Repository policy to create the hierarchy. It is recommended to have a three level
hierarchy of SuperAgents in your network.
Creating a hierarchy of SuperAgent avoids repetitive download of the content update from the ePolicy
Orchestrator server or distributed repository. For example, in a client network with two SuperAgents
(SuperAgent 1 and SuperAgent 2) and a distributed repository, configure the hierarchy in such a way
that the client systems receives the content updates from the SuperAgent 1. The SuperAgent 1
receives and caches updates from SuperAgent 2, then the SuperAgent 2 receives and caches updates
from the distributed repository.
The SuperAgents cannot cache content from McAfee HTTP or FTP repositories.
When creating a hierarchy, ensure that the hierarchy doesn't form a cycle of SuperAgent; for example
SuperAgent 1 is configured to pull updates from SuperAgent 2, SuperAgent 2 is configured to pull
updates from SuperAgent 3, and SuperAgent 3 in turn is configured to pull updates from SuperAgent
1.
