Troubleshooting Secure DX Agent Auto-Updates in ControlUp
In the discussion, there was a question about the Secure DX agent not automatically updating in CU4D. It was suggested that the agent may not be updating due to it being manually deployed. The solution was also given to update manually or make changes to the script to run more frequently. There are planned changes in the works to give users more control over the versions and updates, similar to what is available in CU4D. It was also mentioned that if the script is not running once a day, support can be contacted to help troubleshoot the issue. The Devices tab can show which devices have upgraded to the latest version, with the install date of 8/19 being mentioned. The script will only run if devices are on at specific times.
