Running a Server Electronic Update Manually

You can trigger a server Electronic Update any time. For example, you might need to run an update between automatic updates if you cannot wait for the next update to determine critical information, such as the impact of new vulnerabilities on your product. Or you might need to force a full update if the most recent update did not complete properly.

If automatic server Electronic Updates are disabled (see Disabling Automatic Server Electronic Updates ), you can use this procedure to request a server update whenever needed or to run a local update if necessary.

When you manually run an Electronic Update, it is initiated immediately or once any already active jobs complete.

To run a server Electronic Update manually, do the following:

  1. On the Code Insight Dashboard, click administration. The Administration page appears with a list of side tabs. (You can also access this page by clicking the icon (/images/HamburgerMenu_newUI_6.png) in the upper right corner of the Code Insight web page to open the Code Insight main menu. From this menu, select ADMINISTRATION.)
