Schedule system software updates

System Update lets you schedule regular inquiries to an update server on the Internet for available Fiery server updates. The Fiery server checks automatically for updates by contacting an update server periodically over the Internet.

Note: Your Fiery server may not support the System Update feature or some of the update methods.

System Update can notify you when updates are available. Notification is provided on the Fiery server control panel and the monitor connected to the Fiery server (if supported).

From Configure, choose Fiery Server > System Updates.
Select Enable System Updates.
Specify when the Fiery server should contact the update server.
If supported, choose a method for updating the Fiery server system software (Fiery System Updates) and utility software (Fiery Application Updates):
- Automatically download and install updates (recommended) - Automatically downloads and installs updates on the Fiery server. Your intervention is not required unless a particular update requires the Fiery server to reboot.
- Download updates and send notification - Automatically downloads updates to the Fiery server, but does not install them. A notification that updates have been downloaded is sent. After the updates are downloaded, they must be installed manually.
- Send notification when updates are available - Displays a message on the Fiery server when new updates are available. You must retrieve and install the updates.
If you use a proxy server to connect through a firewall to the Update server, click the HTTP Proxy Settings link. In the Proxy dialog box, select Enable HTTP Proxy, enter the following information, and then click Save.
- Address - Proxy server IP address
- Port - Port used by the proxy server
- User name - User name for accessing the proxy server
- Password - Password for accessing the proxy server
Save your changes.
