Creating a Profile

  1. Create a profile that is based on the IGEL OS 10 firmware (10.08.800 or higher). Find a suitable name for the profile, e.g. "Firmware upgrade to IGEL OS 11".
  2. In the profile's configuration dialog, go to System > Update > Firmware Update and change the settings according to your environment:
    • If the UMS and the devices are in one and the same network and no IGEL Cloud Gateway (ICG) is used:
      • Select "HTTPS" as Protocol.
      • Activate Automatic Update Check on Boot.
      • Ensure that Automatic Update Check on Shutdown is deactivated. Otherwise, the device will shut down when the update is finished.

    • If IGEL Cloud Gateway (ICG) is used:
      • Select "FTP" as Protocol.
      • Activate Automatic Update Check on Boot.
      • Ensure that Automatic Update Check on Shutdown is deactivated. Otherwise, the device will shut down when the update is finished.
  3. Go to System > Update > OS 11 Upgrade and change the following settings according to your successful upgrade test (for details of the settings, see Adjusting the Setup):
    • Activate Upgrade to OS 11.
    • Set Upgrade to OS 11 even if PowerTerm is enabled according to your needs.
    • Set Upgrade to OS 11 even if a previous upgrade attempt failed according to your needs.
    • Set Require an Enterprise Management Pack license to upgrade to OS 11 according to your needs.
    • Ensure that the Timeout waiting for OS 11 license to start automatic upgrade is set to 10 Minutes.


  4. Go to System > Remote Management and change the settings as follows:
    • Deactivate Display 'Apply changes' dialog on boot.
    • Set Default action on boot to Apply changed configuration immediately.
  5. Click Save.

When the profile is created, continue with Deploying the Licenses.
