Update all


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

  1. In the console tree, select the nodes or node groups on which you want to update policies and packages.
  2. Right-click your selection, and then click All Tasksarrow Reinstall/Update.... The Reinstall/Update Node dialog box opens.
  3. Select Update.
  4. In the list under Scope, select All.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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 If you want to deploy policies and packages to nodes that already have a newer version of the policy or package, clear the Update only if version is newer check box.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.
  8. Click OK. The management server creates a deployment job, which updates the policies and packages.
