Authorize update agents to install updates on hosts

Last Updated: 1 minute read

Before installing any updates on a host, you must authorize the update agent to carry out the task on the computer.

If you change the user that runs the XProtect Update Manager Agent Service, you must authorize the host again.

To authorize an update agent:

  1. On the Overview tab, select the check boxes next to the hostnames on which you want to install updates.

  2. Click Authorize.

You can now install updates on these hosts.
