Hi,

We do suggest to install only Virus & Spyware protection on server instead of all three features (Virus & Spyware , Proactive Threat Protection & Network Threat Protection).

For Fileserver or any other server we do recommend the same article.

Hi,

I am Chetan Savade from Symantec Technical Support Team.

Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) client should be installed on all computers on the network, including servers. On servers, SEP should be placed in appropriate client groups so that specific management policies and associated exceptions can be applied. Depending on the server's role, creating and applying the correct policies is critical for system performance in the areas of disk I/O and CPU usage.
