Once the IncrediBuild Environment is set, IncrediBuild Linux enables you to automatically upgrade your current version. This automatic upgrade allows you with a few simple steps to upgrade all the connected Agents in your Environment, without needing to upgrade each Agent separately. At the beginning of the upgrade process, the Upgrade file you receive from IncrediBuild is saved and extracted on the Coordinator machine. By default, on a regular basis all the connected Agents check with the Coordinator if a new IncrediBuild Linux version exists. Once the Agents detect that another version exists, the Agents automatically pull the new version and install it on their machines. Upgrades are not pushed to your machines by IncrediBuild. If you want to upgrade your IncrediBuild Linux version, you need to initiate the upgrade process by obtaining the Upgrade file and running it on your Coordinator machine. Before performing the automatic upgrade, take into consideration the following: - Before activating the upgrade procedure, verify that there are no running builds. If there are running builds during the upgrade, they will be aborted.
- [For version 0.96.58 and older versions] An Agent must be installed and running on the Coordinator machine for the operation of the automatic upgrade. This Agent does not have to contribute its cores to IncrediBuild Environment, and it can be unsubscribed. However, the Agent service must run on the Coordinator machine for a successful upgrade.
