Choosing Updates

If you decided to install some OS/application template(s) update(s) on the Hardware Node and pressed the Install Updates button on the Template Update screen, this opens the Install Updates: Select screen where you can choose the template updates to be installed. Initially, the updates are presented in the Templates Updates group as a list of the names of the Linux distributions supported by the VIrtuozzo Containers software. If you need to install some specific packages from an update, click this update name, to first see its version in the yyyy/mm/dd format. This date being the date of the template update creation, you can decide whether you need to update the corresponding template to this version. If it does not tell you much about the update and whether you need its every package, click the update version to expand it into the list of the templates updates for the given Linux distribution, the OS template preceding the application templates. Finally, clicking the View Details link under the update name opens a pop-up window where you have an exhaustive information on a template update.

Note: The application templates updates are installed on the Node with the view to be further installed on the Containers based on the OS templates these application templates correspond to. Therefore, if your Node hosts no Containers based on a certain OS template, it does not make much sense to install an update of an application template for this OS template. So, if you select an "OSless" application template update, the corresponding OS template is automatically selected as well to be installed together with this application template update.

After deciding which template updates you need, select the corresponding checkboxes and click the Next button to proceed with the installation process.
