Updating GSX Server Software Automatically
GSX Server checks automatically to see if updates for the product are available. By
default, it checks once a week, and if an update is available, displays a message when
you launch a console. You can check manually at any time by choosing
Help > Check
for Updates on the Web . You can change the interval for the automatic check, or
switch to manual checks only.
Choose Edit > Preferences > Workspace . Select the interval in the Check for
software updates drop-down list.
You can set the interval to never, manual (you check for updates manually), daily,
weekly or monthly.
If you are running GSX Server on a Windows host behind a proxy server, make sure
your browser is configured to connect to the Internet through your proxy server.
If you are running GSX Server on a Linux host behind a proxy server, make sure you
configure
http_proxy
with the name of the proxy server and the port number the
proxy server uses.
