Deactivate or Activate Auto-Update for Individual Agents

You can enable or deactivate auto-update for individual agents by editing the client-side configuration file for that agent.

By default, auto-update is enabled from the client side for an agent.

Prerequisites

Agents must be version 4.3 or later.

Procedure

1. Open the local liagent.ini file in an editor.
2. Locate the [update] section.
   It looks similar to the following example.

   [update]
   ; Do not change this parameter
   package_type=msi
   ; Enable automatic update of the agent. If enabled:
   ; the agent will silently check for updates from the server and
   ; if available will automatically download and apply the update.
   ; auto_update=yes

3. To deactivate auto-update, uncomment auto_update=yes and change it to auto_update=no.
   Note: Auto-update for agents is enabled by default. So, the default value for auto_update is "yes", even when commented.
4. Save and close the liagent.ini file.
