So, HOW to UPDATE from version 8 to version 9.
Enterprise Administration Update AEA Consoles version 8.0.355
1. To update the console there are 2 options
A. Update from Control Panel and go to add / remove programs. Then click updates, next and you should start to see your console update to version 8.0.367 (Recommended)
2. After the console has updated, make sure the mirror now shows the correct version and then you can update the clients with an update program task and all new installations will now be version 8.0.1603 clients.
3. Please REBOOT after upgrade
4. If you have any issues contact edu@avast.com
Small Office Administration Update SOA Consoles version 1.3.3
1. This can ONLY be updated by running the set up file found in the link below.
2. If some of your clients haven't already updated then push an update task from the console to the clients only after making sure the mirror is also up to date.
Kind Regards
