Chapter 1. Updating Satellite to the next patch version


You can update your Satellite Server and Capsule Server to a new patch release version, such as from 6.17.0 to 6.17.1, by using the Satellite maintain tool. The patch releases are non-disruptive to your operating environment and often fast.

Always update Satellite Server, Capsule Server, or the operating system by using satellite-maintain update. If there are pending Satellite Server updates, updating the operating system will update both.

Important

Perform updates regularly to resolve security vulnerabilities and other issues.
