About Software Updates
This section describes the ClearPass server software update process.
ClearPass checks for available updates to the ClearPass Webservice server. The administrator can download
and install these updates directly from the
Software Updates
page (depending on the Cluster-Wide
Parameter settings for those parameters). Use the
Software Updates
page to configure and receive live
updates for:
l
Posture Signature updates
These updates include AntiVirus version updates. The ClearPass server uses these updates to check if the
versions of the AntiVirus and the DAT file are the latest version.
l
Windows Hotfixes updates
These updates include a list of available Windows Hotfixes for supported Windows operating systems. The
ClearPass server uses these updates to show a list of the available hotfixes in the Windows Hotfixes health
class.
l
Endpoint Profile Fingerprints updates
These updates include fingerprints and are used by ClearPass in profiling endpoints.
Automatic download and installation for these three types of updates are not enabled by default.
You can also:
l
Reinstall a patch in the event the previous installation attempt fails.
