Update Check Service

Update Check Service allows you to control the process of updating Xinnor xiRAID packages to newer versions. After installing Xinnor xiRAID 4.0.1 or updating Xinnor xiRAID products, this service locks the current version of the packages, preventing it from being automatically updated on general system update commands (apt/yum update).

To check for an available update, run:

# xicli update check

Disable the Update Check Service to update Xinnor xiRAID 4.0.1 to a new availavle version.

Warning:

Please, follow the instructions provided at xinnor.io to safely update your Xinnor xiRAID. Ignoring these steps may result in filesystem panick and even data loss.

To disable the Update Check Service, run:

# xicli update prepare

Warning:

Please, do not run this command unless there is a new available Xinnor xiRAID version. Otherwise, the proper functioning of Xinnor xiRAID cannot be guaranteed.

Tip:

The Update Check Service will inform you of any detected mounted xiRAID devices. Please, unmount the devices before continuing the update process.

We recommend setting up email notifications using Xinnor xiRAID Administrator’s Guide, so we could inform you about the latest Xinnor xiRAID releases. The notifications will be sent to you once every three days. The corresponding messages will be created in the log file regardless of your notifications settings.
