Step (1/4) — Get the installer

  1. Go to PAM Solution.
  2. Select the agent version compatible with your version of the Segura platform.
  3. Download the installer with the new version of EPM Windows.

Step (2/4) - Register the installer for an update

  3. Click the (⁝) icon and choose the New option.
  4. Select the official EPM Windows MSI file in the Installation File field.
  5. Click Save.

Step (3/4) - Approve an installer

When you approve an installer, it means you state your awareness of the latest version and the changes, features, and impacts it will bring to your business.

  1. On the Segura platform, access the menu EPM ➔ Settings ➔ Installers.
  2. Click the (⁝) icon and choose the Approve Installation option.
Attention

Approving a version does not automatically make it available for upgrade. You need to register a schedule to complete the process.

  • The records also allow you to disapprove a version of EPM Windows.
  • A deprecated version will prevent its use if it is already installed on any workstations.
  • After banning, the user will be alerted with the code 2028.
Alert

Banning a version will disable it completely. You cannot reverse this action.

    Attention
    • Non-mandatory updates allow the user to decide whether to install the new version.
    • Mandatory updates do not allow the user to use the previously installed version.

    • Define if there will be an installation date/time limit. This field is only used for mandatory updates.
