Classifier Update
The agents that use the default MSI package update themselves from DECE Servers. The endpoints must have access to documents.decesoftware.com/Setups/. Update checking occurs every 2 days.
Offline Update
You may provide a local update address if you have many clients or endpoints without internet access.
Reserve a shared space accessible from the endpoints. The sample address used here is
\\ServerX\GEODI\Agent\.Read-only access is fine.You should download the up-to-date Classifier MSI package and
Classifier-autoupdate.txtfile fromdocuments.decesoftware.com/Setups/Classifier-autoupdate.txtanddocuments.decesoftware.com/Setups/GEODIClassifier.msi. This must be repeated for each update.You should replace the URL address (the bold line in the below box) with your local address. No other value should be changed.
You must use the new UPDATE_URL value in deployment. If you do not change UPDATE_URL, the endpoints check DECE servers for updates.
