If the upgrade method is selected as Self-Managed FTP Server, the following options will become
available:
FTP Server
: hostname or IP of the FTP server which contains the upgrade files
Username
: username to log into the FTP server
Password
: password to log into the FTP server
Software directory
: the location within the server where the software upgrade files will be
stored for the hydrospider2 to download
Response directory
: if the hydrospider2 finds a new software file, it will attempt to
download and install it. On completion, a response file will be uploaded to the nominated
response directory. This response file will indicate whether the hydrospider2 was successful
in installing the software file, and will detail any errors it encountered if unsuccessful. If the
response directory is left blank, the hydrospider2 will upload response files to the chosen
Software directory.
Note
: Automatic software upgrades will not be attempted if reporting is disabled.
At the bottom of the page, there is also a
Save and Upgrade
button which will save the current
settings and attempt to do a software upgrade. This is useful to check if the entered settings are
correct.
