Endpoint machines have the same status:

Symptoms:

Manual Updates (from Kaseya Console) and Scheduled Updates (using KAM profiles) execute the following command on the endpoint machines:

 [[mbam-msp.exe" /update -silent]] 

However, after a few seconds nothing happens:

Scheduled Task shows the following error message in LOGs:

These LOGs can be found in the <kworking>\KAM\MbamLogs folder

 

 

Executing Update on Endpoint machine shows the following message:

SOLUTION

This issue happens when the an endpoint machine with KAM is unable to reach Malwarebyte Servers to perform update of the database definitions.

To fix this issue please make sure that your Network Firewall has exclusions/allows the following URLs:

data-cdn.mbamupdates.com

static-cdn.malwarebytes.org

 

As an example see Kaspersky Firewall Settings:
