Updated from 12.1.4 to 12.1.5 this morning. Took forever. A lot of cleaning and optimizing databases apparently. The databases (we keep two) dropped 30GB. Must be optimized now.
Super slow for logging in, but we can eventually log in. Nearly all the client machines were yellow, but they're coming back. Manually checking for updates and updating the policies worked from the client machines.
SEPM listed the wrong NIC again. Went into Policies -- opened up Policy Components -- Can't change the default Manager Server List policy which had the wrong NIC listed (although it was listed second/after the correct NIC), so we made a copy of that policy, changed the policy, and applied that to all the clients.
Now we're waiting for everything to filter through. Fingers crossed. I see last time it took a few days before everything was correct.
Login time is about 5 seconds, down from 20 seconds earlier which was done from 10+ minutes the very first time we logged into SEPM after the 12.1.5 upgrade.
