Configuring agent upgrade settings

In Citrix ADM, agents running on software version 12.0 build 507.110 and later are automatically upgraded to newer and recommended versions by Citrix ADM. The agent is upgraded either when a new version is available or at a time specified by you.

Note

If your agent is running on a version earlier than 12.0 build 507.110, you have to first manually upgrade your existing agents to the latest version of Citrix ADM agent. For instructions on manually upgrading an agent, see How to Upgrade a Citrix ADM Agent.

You can view the current version and the recommended version of your agents by navigating to Networks > Agents.

By default, an agent is upgraded automatically when a newer version is available. However, you can specify the time when you want the agent upgrade to happen.

If you select a specific time, the agents are upgraded at that specified time, but in the time zone where your agents are deployed.

During the upgrade, there might be a downtime of approximately 30 minutes.

To configure agent upgrade settings:

Navigate to Networks > Agents, click Settings.

Specify when you want the agent upgrade to start. You can choose to upgrade when a new agent is available, or you can set a specific time when you want Citrix ADM to implicitly upgrade the agent. The time you set is specific to the agent time zone.

Click Save to save your settings. These settings persist for future agent upgrades until you change the settings.
