Hello,
Our Virtualization team wants to deploy a Citrix based VDI environment with Non-Persistent VM's. The VM's will basically get reimaged, or refreshed every couple week or months. With this in mind, we do not want the VM's to request old (big) defination updates every time they are refreshed.
I have already read through the following documents:
Best Practices for Virtualization with SEP
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH173650
Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 - Non-persistent Virtualization Best Practices

Virtual Image Exception Tool

We have actually created a group in SEPM following all the recommendation and assigning the policies, however non of the links above seem to answer one question clearly, how does updates actually gets handled? Do we assign a GUP to the VDI group, but how often will they ask for defination updates when they are refreshed and will they ask for delta or full updates? How can we avoid full updates?
