Use the Appliances page in the Helix Enterprise Web UI to update one or more eligible appliances with the latest system image. You can update multiple appliances at the same time using this method.

Eligible appliances with the HelixConnect client enabled include Network Security and Email Security — Server appliances running Release 9.0.0 or later and Endpoint Security (HX) appliances running Release 5.1.1 or later.

Note

This method updates the system image only, even if newer guest images and security content are available. To update guest images and security content, use the Updates page method described in the previous section.

The Updates column on the Appliances page shows whether updates are available for the appliance. Hover over the icon in the column to view which updates are available and the installed versions.

To update the system image on appliances from the Appliances page:
  1. From the main menu, select Manage > Appliances.

  2. Select the checkboxes for the appliances you want to update. You can only select checkboxes for eligible appliances with available system image updates.

  3. Click Upgrade.

  4. In the Update Appliance dialog:

    1. Select the Reboot appliance(s) checkbox if you want to reboot the appliance after the system image is installed.

    2. Click Confirm to proceed with the upgrade.

The status of the upgrade is displayed in the Updates column.

Note

If the upgrade fails, the cause of the failure for each affected appliance is displayed.
