Updating Edge Gateways

Only the Edge Gateways you deploy are yours to update: those hosted by Systancia are upgraded with the platform. The procedure depends on the form in which the Edge Gateway was deployed.

Before updating, check the compatibility matrix to make sure that the host is still supported.

Windows Edge Gateway

Updating consists of running the installer of the new version, exactly as for a first installation: the new version replaces the one in place, and the existing configuration — including pairing — is preserved.

Retrieve the current setup from your platform, then follow the Windows Edge Gateway installation procedure. The MSI can be extracted from the setup for deployment through a software distribution tool, as described on that same page.

Docker Edge Gateway

Updating consists of pulling the image of the newer version, then recreating the container from it. The container is disposable: its configuration and its data live in the volumes and in the parameters passed at run time, so recreating it does not lose the pairing.

Retrieve the new image from the Systancia Marketplace, then apply the Docker Edge Gateway installation procedure with that image.
