Scheduling Updates

You can change the default automatic schedule for when updates are automatically downloaded and installed. If you have Security Gateways in different time zones, they are not synchronized when one updates and the other did not yet update.

To configure Threat Prevention scheduled updates:

  1. In SmartConsole, go to the Security Policies page and select Threat Prevention.
  2. In the Threat Tools section of the Threat Prevention Policy, click Updates.
  3. In the section for the applicable Software Blade, click Schedule Update.

    The Scheduled Update window opens.

  4. Make sure Enable <feature> scheduled update is selected.
  5. Click Configure.
  6. In the window that opens, set the Update at time and the frequency:
    • Daily - Every day
    • Days in week - Select days of the week
    • Days in month - Select dates of the month
  7. Optional, for IPS only:
    • Select Perform retries on update failure - lets you configure how many tries the Scheduled Update makes if it does not complete successfully the first time.
    • Select On successful update perform Install Policy - automatically installs the policy on the devices you select after the IPS update is completed. Click Configure to select these devices.
  8. Click OK.
  9. Click Close.
  10. Install Policy.
