no more command line updates?
no more command line updates?
(OP)
Hi everybody - I did a command line update last week as I upgraded the shell. I usually check via telnet once in awhile. I like doing updates via the cli as I can see the progress of things as they are installed.
I tried to do an update today, and the shell wouldn't let me run it. After I typed the update command, it asked for the admin password, which I put in. It said that I couldn't execute the command as root on the system. Not sure if other people were having this problem.

With this new implementation, you can check the progress of a running update by going to Support - Log Files and select the swupdate.log. It's not the same as running it from the command line, but at least something.
Kernel updates could always be done (as far as I remember) from the GUI and E-MetroTel recommended using the GUI to make sure the updates would not get interrupted (by users closing their window, the loss of network connection, etc.).

I've seen what you mean with the web GUI hanging during an update. Normally I just walk away from them for 30 mins or so and then refresh on the support log's "swupdate" section for a readout.
