18.13 Client Upgrade Management
After the server is upgraded, the client upgrade packages are updated. Once the server distributes the clients and upgrade packages, clients will automatically install the updates. After a restart, the upgrade is complete.
By default, clients do not upgrade automatically, meaning the server will not distribute upgrade packages automatically. Settings for automatic upgrades must be configured through Client Upgrade Management.
Select "Tools -> Server Management -> Client Upgrade Management" to view the current client upgrade package version on the server. Through the upgrade settings, clients can be set to automatically upgrade or downgrade to match the server version.

Description |
| Upgrade Settings |
|
| Package Version |
Displays the current upgrade package version. The dropdown menu on the right allows selecting the upgrade setting. |
| No Upgrade |
Selecting this option prevents all clients from upgrading. |
| Auto Upgrade |
Selecting this option enables all clients to automatically upgrade to the latest version. |
| Only Upgrade to XX Version |
This option locks the upgrade version and will display the specific version based on the current upgrade package on the server. Once a specific version is locked, clients will only upgrade to that version.
- If the server's upgrade package matches the locked version (e.g., 3.59.127.0), the dropdown menu will show "Only upgrade to 3.59.127.0."
- If the server's upgrade package is a different version (e.g., 3.59.228.0), the dropdown will display both "Only upgrade to 3.59.127.0" and "Only upgrade to 3.59.228.0."
- Once "Only upgrade to 3.59.228.0" is selected, the next time the dropdown is opened, only that option will appear because the locked version matches the server's upgrade package.
|
| Distribution Time Range |
Upgrade files will only be distributed to clients during the specified time range. |
| Allow Client Downgrade |
If the client version is higher than the server's upgrade package, selecting this option allows the client to downgrade; if unchecked, the client version remains unchanged. |
| Search |
Enter Name, Computer, IP, or Last Logged-in User to find clients. Supports keyword search but not wildcards. |
| Scope |
Upgrade files are only distributed to clients within the selected scope. |
| Status |
Displays the status of clients within the selected scope, including computer name, IP address, current client version, and upgrade status. |
