Running the Local Electronic Update from Your Own SFTP Server

The instructions for running a local Electronic Update from your own SFTP Server are similar to those for running from a Revenera server (see Running Server Electronic Updates for more information), with the following two exceptions:

  • Instead of downloading the files from the Revenera server, Electronic Update downloads the files from your own local SFTP server, configured using instructions in the Configuring SFTP to Obtain Update Files Using Your Own SFTP Server section.

  • As a prerequisite step for the use of a local SFTP server, ensure that the update files (update_manifest.txt and update.zip) are downloaded from Revenera to the SFTP server before each Electronic Update. This step can either be done manually or, for example, by using a script to automate the download of the update files based on your update schedule.
