Updating the Firmware Using a USB Storage Device
Issue
You want to update the thin client's firmware locally (without IGEL Universal Management Suite or HTTP/FTP server).
Solution
You can use a USB storage device to update the firmware locally. This method is particularly suitable if only one device or only a few thin clients are to be updated and it would not be worth installing an FTP or HTTP server purely for the update.
Unpack the update file. A snapshot file (.snp) is created.
Save the snapshot file (.snp) on an NTFS-formatted USB storage device.
Configure the firmware update in the local setup underSystem > Update > Snapshots > Download:
SelectFiletheProtocolselection box.
Enter theFile nameof the snapshot file (.snp) you want to download and install.
[optional] EnableReset IGEL configuration settingsin order to reset all configuration parameters to the factory default settings.
[optional] EnableReset User partitionin order to delete all files on the user partitionE:
Applythe changes so that they are effective for the thin client.
Connect the USB storage device to the thin client and wait until the device has been detected.
Launch the update process viaDownload Snapshot. Download and installation of the update will begin.
Do not interrupt the update process when it is in progress. This can result in system inconsistencies. Do not remove the USB device until the update has finished.
