Weird problems in Windows 2012 SEPM installation

I have 2 issues regarding my Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1.2 management server running on Windows 2012 server.

1. About twice a week I have to restart the "Symanect Endpoint protection Manager" service and the "Symanect Endpoint protection Manager Webserver" service on the server in order for users to logon to the SEPM management console.  Otherwise it just hangs on a progress bar after you enter the credentials.  Restarting the server also resolves this.
2. When I open the SEP Management Console (primarily from the java-based console), the majority of my servers show as OFFLINE.  Sometimes after waiting a couple minutes, they will change to ONLINE.  I have applied the following fix but it didn't resolve the issue.  This isn't as big an issue as the first item I listed.
