You can update all the policies and packages that are currently
deployed to selected nodes and
node groups, including the agent package. This upgrades the
packages without removing the current version and updates all the
policies on
the node to the lastest version.
To update all
In the console tree, select the nodes or node groups on which
you want to update policies and packages.
Right-click your selection, and then click All
TasksReinstall/Update.... The
Reinstall/Update Node dialog box opens.
Select Update.
In the list under Scope, select All.
Optional. Select the Ignore missing
policies/packages check box. If the node inventory contains
policies and packages that are not available on this management
server, the management server updates only the policies and
packages that are available. Otherwise, if you clear this check
box, the job succeeds only if all the policies and packages in the
node inventory are available on this management server.
Optional. If another management server has already
deployed a version of a policy to a node, that management server
owns the policy on that node. If you want to update the policy from
this management server, and transfer the ownership, select the
Ignore policy owner check box. You must have the user right
to ignore policy ownership. The management server that you are
connected to must be a primary or secondary manager of the node. If
you do not select this check box, the management server updates
only the policies that it owns.
Optional. If you want to deploy policies and packages to
nodes that already have a newer version of the policy or package,
clear the Update only if version is newer check box. If you
do this, the management server deploys the latest version of the
policy or package that is available on the management server, even
if the node already has the same version or a newer version.
Click OK. The management server creates a deployment
job, which updates the policies and packages.
