Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 Group Policy Tool; Import Failed

Asked By charmane_fain 0 points N/A Posted on - 09/24/2012

I was importing a policy file that came from System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection and the Import failed.

The xml file seemed to be missing in the said directory.

Where can I download this file so that I can place it in the said directory?

 

Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 Group Policy Tool

Policy Import Failed

Unable to validate policy file ‘C:FEP Group Policy CorrectorSCEP2012scep2012-Antimalware.org.xml’, please check that the file is a Forefront Endpoint Protection policy.

Details: Unrecognized file format.

Hello Charmane,

You will need to do the following:

• Document the policy settings that you need to preserve from FCS to FEP. There is no policy migration between the two versions.
• And then go to WSUS and then unapprove all the FCS v1 client installation packages.
• In case you don't remember to do this, you may end up with FCS v1 reinstalled.
• After that you will need to install FEP on your Config Mgr installation, and then go ahead  with the FEP client deployment.

Regards,

Nicke
