IGEL OS Automatic Update Service for Device Evaluation
Overview
The automatic update service checks for available firmware updates periodically; if a firmware update is available, the user is prompted to start the update. The firmware is provided by IGEL via a download server that is known by the automatic update service. Alternatively, you can use a download server of your own.
The automatic update service is only available for devices with an evaluation license; when the device receives a Workspace Edition license, the service is deactivated.
Environment
Endpoint device with IGEL OS 11.06.100 or higher
Configuring the Automatic Update Service
In the UMS configuration dialog or the local Setup, go to System > Registry > update > auto-service > enable and ensure that Enable automatic update service is set to "During evaluation only".
Set the following parameters according to your requirements:
interval: Time interval in hours in which the device should check for firmware updates during runtime. When the value is 0, the device only checks on boot.
max_delays: Maximal times the user can postpone an update. Example: When this value is set to 9, the user can postpone the update 9 times before the update will be forced. When the value is 0, the update will be forced immediately.
randomized_delay: Delay time that is added to the interval to avoid an excessive amount of requests to the server at the same time.
server: If you want to use an update server of your own, enter its address here. If the field is empty, the public update server provided by IGEL will be used.
user_dialog_timeout: Timeout in seconds before the user dialog is closed and the update is started. When set to 0, the dialog remains open until the user closes it.
version: The target version to which the device should be updated. If the field is left empty, the current version will be used. Example: "11.05.133"
