Name the three branches in the ePO Master Repository.
Answer:
- Current
- Previous
- Evaluation
From the McAfee Community:
Current - All the Packages you want to deploy to your Client Machines are in this branch and, by default, McAfee Agents take updates from this Branch.
Previous - This is the branch where you generally keep your old version of McAfee Products or old DAT. Whenever there is a new McAfee Product Version released you check-in the package into the Current Branch of the Master Repository, and move the existing one into the Previous branch, so that you have the old version of the McAfee Product as well. There is no hard and fast rule to move the old version of McAfee Product to the Previous branch, and you can delete it as well. But some ePO admins want to have the old versions as well, so they move it to Previous branch.
Evaluation - This branch is generally used for Testing Purpose. Suppose in your environment, you don’t want to push an update to the production machines unless you test it and monitor the behavior of the new McAfee Product or updates before testing it. Then you can check-in the McAfee Product or updates into this branch, change the McAfee Agent policy for the test machine to get the updates from Evaluation Branch instead of Default Current branch, let the updates be pushed to Test Machines, and then monitor it. Once satisfied, change the branch of the Product or update to Current branch, so that it can be pushed to all the machines in the Production Environment.
