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.

You can view the current version and the recommended version of your agents by navigating to Infrastructure > Instances > 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:

1. Navigate to Infrastructure > Instances > Agents, click Settings.

   

2. Specify when you want the agent upgrade to start.

   You can choose to upgrade when a new agent image is available, or you can set a specific time when you want Citrix ADM to automatically upgrade the agent.

   

   Note:

   The time you set uses the time zone that you selected in Global Settings > System Configuration. For more information about setting a time zone, see Set the Citrix ADM time zone.

3. Click Save to save your settings.

   These settings persist for future agent upgrades until you change the settings.
