Update Segura™

Prev Next

Keeping your Segura™ application up to the latest version ensures a more secure environment with enhancements. Refer to the Changelog of our latest version for details about new features, fixes, security enhancements, and usability improvements.

Caution

In order to perform the update, you have to indicate the location of the repository. For information on how to perform this action, access the How to manage repositories with Orbit CLI document.

You can update your application in three ways:

Disk space requirements

Every update checks the disk space of the appliance before it changes anything. Check these requirements before the update window:

File system Requirement
/usr At least 12 GB in total. If you expand it, use 16 GB or more when possible.
/var At least 10 GB free, to download the update packages.
/usr At least 1 GB free, to install the packages.

To check the size and free space, start an SSH session as an administrator user and run:

df -h /usr /var

The Size column shows the total size, and the Avail column shows the free space. A 12 GB /usr can show slightly less than 12G because the file system reserves part of the volume. The check accepts it.

Appliances with a small /usr

Appliances installed from the 3.29.1 image have an 8 GB /usr partition. The partition keeps this size after later updates, so these appliances cannot update until /usr is expanded.

If /usr is smaller than 12 GB, plan the expansion before the update window. Contact Segura™ support team.

If the update does not start

If a requirement is not met, the update stops at the start and shows the reason in the terminal. Nothing is changed on the appliance. Free up space or expand the file system, then run the update again.

The message appears only in the terminal and is not saved in the update logs. Keep a copy of the command output, especially if you contact support.
