3.20.1. Management Center Updates

The Management Center checks for updates daily. Available updates are shown automatically in the Updates section.

As soon as an update is available, the Upgrade from ... to ... button appears. Click this button to start the update process. The Management Center service restarts and the user must log in again. In general, update the Master Management Center before connected Management Centers.

3.20.2. Version Pinning

The Version Pinning section allows you to create constraints to "pin" a specific version of THOR, Aurora, or any signatures. This allows you to stay on specific major or minor versions of our products.

By default, the Management Center will search for signature updates every hour and for THOR/Aurora updates every day. You can change the update interval if needed, though the default values are usually sufficient for most cases.

To manually check whether a new update is available, click Check for Updates. This does not download new versions. It only checks whether new versions are available according to your pinning constraints.

If new updates are available, you can manually download them via the Update Products Now button.
