Version: OpCon 21.0 (On-Prem)

Setting Preferences for Update Sites

The Enterprise Manager can automatically check for updates. The OpCon administrator should define the update site(s) allowed for the environment. EM supports update sites through an http site, FTP site, or a local network directory.

caution

If choosing a local directory, do not place the Update directory inside the directory structure for an EM that will be updated. If the update location will be on the SAM server, SMA Technologies recommends using a path similar to the following: C:\EM Updates\

The repository will exist inside this directory after extraction from the zip file provided by SMA Technologies.

When the administrator receives a new version from SMA Technologies, they can update the repository locations to distribute it to all EM installations in the network. If database updates are also required, the administrator should update the database before updating the EM repository.

note

On some Windows 7 machines and Windows Servers, the automatic updates will fail because of lack of privileges on the machine. If this happens, modify the privileges on the EnterpriseManager folder to grant "Full Control" to "Creator Owner," "Users," and "LogonUser."
