Using your new pull task, your ePolicy Orchestrator server is configured to
automatically update the master repository with the latest updates from the source
repository on the McAfee web site. The task runs once a day and keeps your master
repository current.
But an up-to-date master repository won't be of any use to those client systems on your
network that get their updates from a distributed repository, such as the systems in the
Container1
site in our sample test network. The next step, therefore, is to make sure the
updates added to your master repository are also automatically replicated to your
distributed repository. To do this, create a replication task and schedule it to occur every
day after the scheduled pull task you already created.
